Harry Potter
I finally jumped onto the Harry Potter bandwagon. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I picked up the book. It was a pretty easy read. When I first started I got through 150 pages in 2 hours. That's half of the 309 page book. I think I finished it in a total of 4.5 hours over 4 days. I've been really busy so I couldn't get it all in one shot. I even read the book while sitting in my biology class last wednesday. I think I should have been paying attention. Anyways I loved the first book. I'm going to have to pick up the other 3 and wait for the next 3 to come out. The series has got me hooked. Can't wait for more.

Long Drive II
Last Night's/This Mornings Drive was very difficult. I think I dozed off about a dozen times along the 250 mile stretch of highway between Berkeley and San Luis Obispo. It was very empty and I guess that made me sleepy. I stopped once along the way to buy some coffee and at least try to wake myself up. At another stop I decided to take a nap. I napped for about 45 minutes and then a big truck woke me up. I started driving again and set my car to cruise control. Somewhere along the way something jumped out in front of my car and I hit it. It was very small and I knew it was some kind of animal. There was nothing I could do. It just jumped out in front and then, boomp, that was it. There wasn't even any mark on my car. This was the first time I have ever hit an animal on the road. At least I didn't overreact and cause myself to have an accident.

Long Drive
I had a long drive coming up here and I am now going to drive back to SLO. I left at arounf 1 or 2pm and didn't arrive at Berkeley until 7:15. The only reason I cam eup was to see Theatre Rice. Nobody wanted to come with me this time. I tried calling several people, but they were all busy. I was a tad bit late in getting to the show. I thought that the show started at 8pm, but I was in fact wrong. It was rather short this time finishing in about 2 1/2 hours. It usually lasts about 3. Anyways the show is done and I'm about to head back home again. I hope I don't fall asleep at the wheel.

Pre-fired
Today, my friend, Jason, told me that he pre-fired someone. That was the funniest thing I have heard in a while.Apparently there's this kid that keeps coming into his store asking for a job. Jason isn't really looking to hire anyone. But this kid is always up in the store messing up bigtime. When customers come in to buy things he sometimes say some place has it cheaper. Today when a guy was selling his Playstation 2 at the store the kid kept talking about the Dogma DVD that he had. He had more than enough reason to fire this kid beofre he hired him. "You're pre-FIRED!"

Damn Security
Damn these public computers. There is too much security on them. I just wante dto check my e-mail but the browsers consider the security percautions as a threat and won't even let me access the pages the login screen is on. At least I could get into Blogger. It isn't the same though. I want my e-mail.

Today I noticed a couple things about what people wear:
Sunglasses Worn on the Back of the Head
Is there any real purpose on putting your sunglasses on backwards. It just looks plain stupid. The guy that I noticed this with was in my philisophy class. He came in and took his sunglasses off the front of his head and mounted them on the back. The stupid thing was that there was no sun today. It was very cloudy this morning.
Red Hair
There was this girl I saw with curly red hair. It wasn't "redhead red", it was more like Ronald McDonald red. She did look like Ronald McDonald with her red curly hair except that her face wasn't white. There was another guy I saw with red spikes in his hair. What's up with red hair?!?

Feeling Sick
I really don't want to be here at work today because I don't feel well right now, but there is no one else to cover for me so here I am. Earlier tonight I had some curry for dinner. I don't really like curry, but there wasn't anything else to eat. I took a nap after that because I had to work the late shift tonight. About an hour into my nap I woke up with a strange feeling and I knew to go straight to the bathroom. Up came all of my dinner. This only reaffirmed my dislike of curry.
I went back to sleep feeling sick and then got up an hour and a half later. As I was taking a shower I felt like I wanted to vomit again, but there was nothing to vomit. I felt worse after that, but I had a duty to go to work. On the way there I picked up some food in hopes that it would help out my stomach. It only helped a little, but I stil had that feeling that it wanted to come up so I stopped eating. I hope I fell better in the morning.
