I'm On My Period And Everything Looks Delicious.

Halloween is creeping up. It's the only holiday that still takes forever to arrive. Even Christmas seems to whiz by. I'm tempted to color-code my Blogger page in a festive Halloween manner, but at the same time I'm really not. At all.

We're reading "Romeo and Juliet" in Shakespeare, but I can't get into it. I've seen, heard and smelled it so many times I'm just... done. I've heard too many cynical interpretations to simply enjoy it as a love story, and I KNOW when we discuss it in class tomorrow it's just going to be more of the same. THEY'RE TEENAGERS, OF COURSE THEY'RE NOT IN LOVE.

Tonight my roomie and I decorated our dorm with some Halloween goodies. There's a skeleton on our door! But he'll probably get stolen. :(

In honor of our cheapy plastic skeleton and Halloween in general, J-Mil presents
Skeletons On Parade!

Not really a skeleton

Pac Man skeleton

Mermaid skele-- hey wait a second! It's a fraud!

[I was going to talk about something really gross right here, but decided that if I didn't want to alienate everyone I should probably keep it to myself. Those curious may inquire at their own risk]

Question: Do you get paid to be a priest? 'Cause if so that's pretty fucked up. And it's just plain bizarre that folks are going out and getting degrees in... I dunno what you call it... priestology? Maybe it's just because I'm an American and I support the decisions made in Lemon v. Kurtzman (hell yeah 3 on the AP Gov test!), but I like to separate religion and education. Studying to be religious is, if you think about it, kind of a contradiction. There was an article in The Onion the other day about Darwinists making a pilgrimage to a Darwin-shaped water stain. My favorite part was the interview with the priest:

"It's a stain on a wall, and nothing more," said the Rev. Clement McCoy, a professor at Oral Roberts University and prominent opponent of evolutionary theory. "Anything else is the delusional fantasy of a fanatical evolutionist mindset that sees only what it wishes to see in the hopes of validating a baseless, illogical belief system. I only hope these heretics see the error of their ways before our Most Powerful God smites them all in His vengeance."

The weather is getting cold. Good. GOOD. GOOD! Cold weather is good stuff. Good things happen.

I have nothing else to say. Good night.
