You know running Windows on a Macbook Pro is like punching a hole in a coke can, draining it of it's delicious contents, and then putting urine in it and drinking it.
Just a personal opinion.

Well HELLLOOO X3 Rant!
When a director/writer/producer agrees to do a comic book movie, he acknowledges certain facts and subconsciously consents to do certain things. One of these things is NOT CHANGE THE OVERALL STORY OF THE COMIC BOOK THAT YOU ARE ADAPTING TO FILM. Meaning that you will not..
1. Kill off any main characters that normally make recurring appearances within the comic book series
2. Create love interests that would be considered just tacky in the comic book world
3. Pull story lines out of your butt
WARNING MAY CONTAIN X3 SPOILERS
Keeping this in mind...WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD BRETT RATNER KILL OFF 3 MAIN XMEN CHARACTERS? WHY?! You just can't do that. He's pretty much made it impossible for any director to do a fourth movie now. Thanks Brett. You really gave the fans what they were dying to see: their favorite characters die before their very eyes!

Adjective: Entertainingly and strikingly clever or original in concept, design, or performance
I could definitely spend a good hour explaining to my loyal audience why X3 caused a giant ball of furry to grow inside of me but it is too early in the morning for rants and I think a good night's sleep will help me think of more reasons why Brett Ratner will pay for his more recent mistake in the most painful of ways. MUHAHAHA!! (Properly pronounced, "moo-haha")
On the most random of side notes:
How does one become witty? Is this a trait that one just acquires or is there some sort of wit school that one attends? If so, does Jeff Goldblum teach a class? Is it called, "Um, will there, uh, be any witty banter in this witty banter class?" 101? I feel as though only with Hannah and Natalie I am able to carry on long conversations that ONLY consist of witty banter. Is this because we are so witty that when were are together we create some sort of witty vortex of doom? Hm. In any case I do believe I am only witty around them. Just something to think about.

The last two days at work have taught me the following:
1. I am a moron who is not even capable to complete even the most remedial of jobs.
2. I only cause more work for those around me and thus should be locked in some sort of padded box.
3. Did I mention that I never do anything right? Yes? No? Well apparently I don't. I shouldn't touch things. They tend to explode.
On a slightly more entertaining note, I have found the phrase, "Earth babies, jump in my mouth! Do it." to be highly addictive.

Were I the Moor, I would not be Iago.
iTunes: "Baby, You Wouldn't Last A Minute On The Creek" by Chiodos
I am: [insert adjective here]
I finished my two hour final in exactly 24 minutes. Should I be worrying? Nah. That just means I'm super awesome! Right?
I must drag myself to church tomorrow, though I am not in the mood and know that I will definitely not be in the mood after working tomorrow, I know that missing a day of church without a decent excuse would put more of a damper on my spiritual life than I would like. ::Sigh::
Upon the suggestion of Andrew, I spent about 4 hours, blowing off some steam with a little Tomb Raider: Legend. No, I have not beaten it yet. I will. I will. Surprisingly I spent a good chunk of that time trying to get one of the "Gold Rewards" (for those non-gamers, that means I get upgraded to UBER FANTASTIC VIDEO GAMER if I am able to collect all of them in Tomb Raider) and when I was hit by a random blast of fire, which came out of no where BTW, and died you can only imagine how non-destressed (I made that word up tehehe) I was. At that point I threw the controller on the ground and said, "FINE EIDOS! I JUST WON'T PLAY YOUR STUPID GAME WITH IT'S STUPID 'RULES'" and that was that.
I'm disturbed that my posted have be whittled down to unrelated sentences and/or paragraphs.

Forbear to sleep the nights, and fast the days.
iTunes: "Animal I Have Become" by Three Days Grace
I am: a box
As school comes to a close this season I find myself attempting to reach my goal of reading every Shakespeare piece I can get my little hands on. I finally finished Richard III (finally! TAKE THAT MR. SHAKESPEARE!!). It was more difficult to read than I thought. The main character was extremely hard to relate to and every time I fell in love with a character, he would end up dying a few pages later. Gr, I say, gr. I plan on working on Merchant of Venice next but haven't been able to find the time to start it. Heck, I still have to beat Tomb Raider: Legend before the summer is up.
I completely understand that some people's defense mechanism consists of them being complete jerks to people, for their own personal reasons but, believe it or not, when you're a jerk to me, you WILL push me away. This is why I have decided to go apartment searching in Lawrence. ::Claps hands:: so congratulations You, You are succeeding at pushing me out of your life. Yay for You!!

O' that this too solid flesh would melt
iTunes: "Heard 'Em Say" by Kanye West (Featuring Adam Levine)
I am: choleric
In honor of this being X3 month (yes!) I have dyed my hair a slightly more reddish tone in attempt to be as cool as Famke Janssen. Unfortunately I was unable to find a color with the name "awesome x-men red" so I settled for "radiant red". I'd say I look pretty Jean Grey-ish. Now I just have to get my telepathic powers down and I'll be set.
I find it extremely sad that every time Jurassic Park is on Bravo I feel the need to glaze myself to the TV screen. I honestly think that I could reenact that entire movie word for word. Which reminds me...
I am determined to have the BEST Halloween costumer EVER this year. I've been throwing ideas around for quite some time but I'm not really satisfied with what I've got. I'm open to suggestions.
-Scully (from X-Files) and I would convince some random male friend (I'll probably bribe Andrew into doing this) to dress as Mulder.
-Mr. Pink aka A Reservoir Dog. I would then need to convince 4 other people to dress up as the remaining "dogs". Hehe.
-I dress up as Julianne Moore from LOST WORLD: JP2 and find some hopeless friend to dress up as Jeff Goldblum. We then lug around a stuffed T-Rex and claim to be saving the world from men who think they can play God.

Apple now controls my life
Normally I wouldn't encourage buying ANY album from iTunes (DARNNNN YOU ITUNES!!!) but this...this is the ONE exception I will make. I am proud to announce that the iTunes music store has release, "SCRUBS SOUNDTRACK VOL. 2". That's right people!! All the music that you have loved this past season and the season before can be found on this exclusive iTunes album. For a mere $9.99 you can hear such amazing songs as "In The Sun" by the AMAZING Joseph Arthur and "Section 9 (Light & Day/ Reach for the Sun)" by the Polyphonic Spree.

Coughing is fun!
So I'll just come out and say it, you guys suck. Yes, you guys who feel the need to leave Springfield to pursue, only the Lord knows what. Yes, Hannah..Natalie...and whoever else is leaving me in Springfield to fend for myself. Gr. I hate you all (but can I still stay in your apartment when I come and visit?). It makes me feel as though I should be moving to some exotic place that would better suit my talents. To be honest, I don't feel this overwhelming force calling me or pulling me in any sort of direction. If anything I feel as though my place is here in Springfield. I think if God intended me to leave Springfield I would know it and maybe he will call me some place other than here but for the moment…he is not. I think Andrew jokingly made me promise that Justin and I (being his only single friends now) that we would never leave Springfield and that we would never get married. I answered with a solemn, "Unless certain circumstances happen I will not leave Springfield." I then told him that I preferred to NOT be the local cat lady and thus would probably like to get married at some point in my life.
It’s funny, I don’t usually get an abundance of phone calls, ever, but since I’ve been sick and ultimately lost my voice, I’ve had more phone calls than normal. Usually, I get text messages galore (WHY?!!) but instead of just texting a simple sentence people feel the need to call and say the five or six words that clearly could not be expressed though a ten cent message. Which I have responded all throughout today with, “::cough cough:: I’m sorry but it really hurts to talk.” To which they respond, “Oh are you sick?” No, no I am not sick. Sometimes I like to tell people in a raspy and very unattractive voice, that it hurts to talk so that I may provoke an hour-long discussion about nothing. If you didn’t get the sarcasm there then well, I don’t know what to tell you.
Irony is awesome.
As you can imagine I am
