Apr. 19th, 2003 09:04 pmi love that i learn something in class. Today K's class began their short reports. i went with them to the library so they could begin their research. Today i learned about two more periodical guides exist. Both guides to medical/scientific journals. How cool.
i've said this before i need a female friend. i have come to the conclusion that i cannot socialize with the females i work with. They equate socialization with being on the inside and getting special favors. And then they get pissed when they don't get what they want. i will not put myself in the situation of having someone come in and yell at me because they are upset that i am not a mind reader. They can just go fly a kite.
They think, hell, i don't know what they think. i do know they don't plan very well. They think shit happens at the snap of a finger. Well it doesn't. And i am not a miracle worker. i need lead time to make things happen.
Master is sick. If he doesn't get better fast, i will personally carry His lily white butt to the clinic. He wakes up in the night coughing like He is going to gak up a lung. He has to sit up for an hour or so to clear his lungs. He has no fever. i wonder if he has an infection in His sinuses. i will put my foot down. i mean it. dammit
We are having a run of beautiful weather. Don't want to tempt the fates by talking about it, but it has to be said. The weather here is gorgeous. On the way out to run the dog today we saw some soldiers coming back from Iraq. i don't know that for a fact, but there was a 'look' about them. More relaxed, more mature, more 'i have seen the world' attitude about them. They also seemed so very very happy to be back here and out of it. One truck load laughed and waved and pointed at Max as if they had never seen a black dog riding in a car with his head out the window. Wait till i get him some doggles. Then everyone will sit up and take notice.
Joke in the Arab Times today:
The information minister told the people of Baghdad that it wasn't a statue of Saddam Hussein that got toppled in the circle that day, it was a statue of one of his doubles. i read that and couldn't stop laffing.
Max is not graceful, and he gets embarrassed. He fell off the couch yesterday onto the floor. If black dogs could blush Max would have been beet black.
