A Holiday from Heck
That about sums it up. I have done a large amount of school work on almost every day of this week off. Tomorrow school starts up again, and I still have a 1200 word paper to write that is due tomorrow. The econ project that has been killing me for the past several days is mostly out of the way now, all I have to do is rehearse my lines and wave pieces of paper around now before I give the presentation. If we don't get an A on this project I am going to go postal. The type in a school. The one day that I did nothing was the very first day of this crazy "vacation." I have done more work this week than on a normal week that had school. Largely school is when they teach you stuff, you don't actually work, its the homework afterwards, of which I have been doing an inordinate amount. The goal of teachers is to kill seniors. I am convinced.

Ultimate Dinosaurs
I just got back from ultimate Frisbee, where I ran around in circles for two hours straight, attacking my team with a piece of plastic. I hit Keith's hand today. Most people don't come back for seconds... I throw fairly hard. I love that game, but for some reason nobody was playing very well, so it was a sort of muted fun.
Ok, I just finished listening to "kingdom of the Dinosaurs" by five iron frenzy. However, it is far too stupid to update. This guy just yells "kingdom of the Dinosaurs" again and again to this stomping tuba music in the back that is not all that well orchestrated... I have no idea why I just listened to that. Don't listen to it unless you need a sanity check. If you think this is good music, you failed. This is kinda like the insanity test: http://www.owenrudge.net/various/insanity.htm I crack up every time... Legally insane.

Engine Error
Well, dad has been fooling with his internet security things again, and there is now this big huge bar that usually says "Fraud monitoring is on" across the top. However, whenever I go to my blog, it says Engine error. From this I can make paranoid conclusions:
Something has hacked into my blog and now steals everyone's credit card number.
Norton is messing up again.
The Aliens are after me again.
Speaking of different things on the computer, we got iTunes 7. I love it. It has this lovely album art viewing mode that is just downright gorgeous. I should upload all my album art just so that I can enjoy it. Apple has some zen masters designing their products. Nobody can use anything else with them, but they just work so well. (for the most part. I have this ability to crash apples just by sitting down in front of them, but then Jeffrey can crash a windows in exactly the same way.)
I am in the process of downloading Csound. I have no clue what it does just yet, however, I hope I can do some sound synthesis with it, and if it meshes with Audacity I will be most pleased. It is 18 megs (a big file for my connection). Be quiet all you people with mad fast internet. I have very little talent in the realm of music, I mostly like to make noise. I recorded one thing and turned it into mp3 using iTunes, and one day it came up when I had it randomly playing through the library. Mom came in and said, "Turn that noise off!" maybe its me, maybe its my family, or maybe I need to find a whole bunch of people who are as musically stupid as I am and make noise together.
