1) Summer's about halfway over. I wish it would just bite the dust early. Sadly enough, I miss the mental stimulation that comes from homework. Nannying two kids who just want to sit around and watch Spongebob reruns is slowly turning my brain into mush that the Hulu aliens* will surely devour.

2) We're going to Washington D.C. and New York City in early August for our family vacation. We haven't taken one in years, so I'm more than ecstatic. However, I haven't been to either city before, so I have no idea what to do once we get there.

3) textsfromlastnight.com. All I'm gonna say.

4) I figured out Twitter. Better, but not all it's hyped-up to be. More like Facebook status updates on cocaine.

5) I'm sick of seeing Michael Jackson's face on the news. I brought this up to a few people today, and they looked like I had just burned an American flag.

6) I have become fascinated with Ventrilo Harassment videos. Duke Nukem style remains my favorite.

7) It disturbs me that somebody could dig up hundreds of African-American corpses from a cemetery and try to resell the plots. That's seriously messed up.

8) I like to think that I understand most guys. But clearly I'm wrong. It's a good thing nobody ever died from utter frustration.

That is all.
