I have 4 more to do. Not friggin' bad. I wanted to be done now, but I kind of knew that was a pipe dream.

The good news is everything will be fine. Things will still suck until I am done, but I am now confident it will all get done. And knowing is half the battle. The more you know. Knowledge is power. Free toy inside.

I slept late as hell today, and felt great when I woke up. This means that come Monday afternoon and especially Tuesday morning, I will begin to feel absolutely awesome. It should be noted that right now "absolutely awesome" for me would be what many of you would classify as "raging hangover with acute dementia."

I'm more a little bit tired. And I don't mean in a current, topical way, I mean in the way you would say "I'm more than a little bit of an amputee." I mean a prolonged state of existence kind of way. My eyes, however, became markedly less puffy after sleeping in today.

Tomorrow I get to sleep in a bit, but then jet off to my nephew's thingydoodle, birthday observed. He and I both get birthdays observed this year. Mine I think may be this Saturday. Ha! I have cheated death of two weeks! MAHHAHAAHAHAH. THE CALENDAR IS MY PLAYTHING>

Okay, for the record, I've already said i'm tired. Soon I shall ascend from the ranks of the zombielike and be able to see my one friend and maybe get her together with my other, regrettably "digital" friend for some coffee and sparkling conversation. And perhaps a roundtable on the Best Show Ever. I went to the Wal-Mart tonight after my shower and cranked the soundtrack to Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey- and let me tell you something, if you need to get psyched to do the impossible, aint nothin' better than sleeping for 10 hours after running a week on 3-4 hours a night, getting up, taking a long ass shower, and blazing down the highway with Slaughter cranked.

Aww yeah. Self referential hair band. It's okay because they knew it was bad.

Tonight I broke the 'u' key on this laptop while pounding out a lesson of some sort. Right now the U key has been replaced with the tilde key, as fortunately this keyboard design has only 2 different types of buttons, and the designers didn't make it all stupid and at some kind of weird angle. Any key on this board can be exchanged for any other key of a similar shape, and there are only 2 main shapes, which means if my F key suddenly broke, my right Alt key would probably make the great sacrifice.

It looks hillarious though to periodically look down at the keyboard and see

r t y ` i o p.

I'll see if I can take a picture and post it so you people can stop constantly bothering me about how insanely interested you are in my run of the mill keyboard phenomenon.

My tilde key has no key right now, because I basically never use it. However, my enter and space keys have been giving me trouble lately, so I'm getting a replacement keyboard. Fortunately, ebay's got me covered. 4 bucks. Bonus.

I love it when a plan comes together.
