Yay. I've got my domain and webhosting space up and running. I'm in the process of setting up MovableType to work well with me. Here's the link, and the URL is http://shadowlover.net. Whenever I get everything all situated there, I'll set up a redirect.

Blah. I was stressing yesterday about a test in History for today. I was up till 1:30 studying and I said to myself I'll get up at 6 and study some more. Well, when the alarm went off, I went back to sleep for 45 mins. Turns out the test was really easy. One thing that was odd was the two essay questions. I'm used to having to write something substantial for essays, but most of the class was gone in 20 minutes. A brief essay, to me, is about one handwritten page. Oh well. I told him when I turned in the paper (40 minutes into the class and only 2 other guys in the class) that I was very verbose. That's just a fancy way of saying I talk a lot.

I think I've had too much coffee today. I'm not sure if I'm shaking because of a caffeine overdose or because of the almost indescribable rage I feel.

Why am I so angry, you ask? See this website for details and then I urge you to sign the petition on that site and this one.

I've been thinking about my time as a convenience store manager. I always did whatever I could for my employees and I'm reasonably sure that the good ones did their best for me too. I think, at the time, I took it for granted that they accepted me being gay, but the more I think about it, they really respected me. I find myself wishing I had done more than I had...or maybe just the chance to tell them how how much I appreciated them. Although I can't afford to be in a management position right now because of school, I hope I'll have the opportunity to serve employees like that again.

Hmm. I'm thinking super seriously of getting some hosting space and a domain name and setting up movabletype for the blog. It shouldn't be too difficult, and I've found reasonable hosting. Bleh, I'll think more about it tomorrow.

School's going well. I have a letter to write to an elected official for government. I may post it when I revise and refine it.

Today was payday and again I am brizzoke. bleh

Gah. After I got home from work today and was unsuccessful at finding food, I went to bed. As a result, I woke up about midnight and found a bite to eat and watched some Duckman.

Hmm. Blah. I have the first day of classes in the morning. And there's no basement in the Alamo.

Last night I had a couple of dreams I remember. In the first one, the world was going to be flooded, so a lot of people were on a train. I don't know where we were going, though. In another dream, we got a fine for our lawn being messy.

I think I've had my share of stupid customers today. This lady asked me about some software that we didn't have but another walmart has. I told her that different stores carry different titles. I believe her parting word to me was "Damn!"

Gah...they had me up front for an hour. I really hate that.
