"There's nothing like a major motion picture to make you feel better about your television show being canceled."

That's a great line.

Serenity starts tomorrow. I'm excited. I probably won't be able to see it tomorrow, being poor and not being able to afford $8 movie tickets. Dangit. Maybe I can convince Sam to go to the matinee with me. I'm sure it won't be hard - he's more excited about seeing it than I am.

I have to come back to Auburn tomorrow. This blows. I was really wanting to have tomorrow off. But, no. Now I have to be here at 9. Hopefully not for very long, though. My professor is going out of the country for a couple of weeks and I have to teach some of his classes and give a test. Apparently he's too busy getting his passport and making arrangements for his trip to meet with me today. Geeze. I'm way more important than all that stuff. ...ok, maybe not. It's still a pain.

Happy Birthday Elaine!

I made this cake for you.

Not really - but I did find this picture of a cake on the internet for you.

That counts for something, doesn't it?

I'm holding your present hostage until you come visit.

That's "Madam President" To You

I will be President. I've said it before and I'll say it again - I want to be President. Last Presidential election Jane (of the magazine Jane) had a mock campaign and her slogan was "It's time for a real bush in the White House."

I love that.

I watched the premire of Commander-in-Chief last night. I'm hooked. Geena Davis is completely believeable as the President. Her speech at the end of the show... amazing. That's just good T.V. God, I'm ready for a woman to be President. Or even an Independant!

There's all kind of buzz about how if this show is good it could pave the way for a woman in the White House. I sure hope so. I don't think it'll be next election, though. Right now, there's no one who could get enough votes. The buzz is that Hilary Clinton will run, but I think she's smarter than that. Sure, I'd vote for her - I think she's brilliant - but, too many people hate that strong-willed-independant-thinking-for-herself-type woman.

Hmm... maybe I should work on my image...

School Expels Girl for Having Gay Parents

This is the most ridiculous CRAP I've ever seen.

First Post

I have realized that there are only two people in the whole world who really know me - Sam and Elaine. They are the only people that I really consider "close friends." I guess it's a good thing that Sam is, considering I live with him. I was reading Amanda's and Morgan's blog-type pages and it was strange, because it was like I didn't know them at all. But, it's not like I've made a major effort to keep in touch with them. I'm not really sad about it - it's more ... just a fact. I am really bad at keeping in touch with people. I email less than a handful of people from high school and college combined. I keep saying that I'll do better, but I won't.

As I was walking to my office today, I saw a table set up outside of the Hayley Center. On it was a sign that said "Tired of Liberal Proffessors? Auburn Republicans can help you speak up." I just looked at them and laughed. I kind of hoped that one of the three very J.Crew looking young men had asked me if I was interested in joining. That would have made my day.
