1) Still no date for Valentine's Day but I plan to email Friendster Guy today about it. (Addendum since I started drafting this post. I have very cheesily asked Friendster Guy via email to be my Valentine. Don't worry, it was preceded by text letting him know I was ok keeping VDay low key and just another day but that I wanted to spend it with him whether we celebrated or not.)
2) I owe $700 in taxes. Bolux! So much for my vacation plans. I have recently gotten an offer to go to Japan while a friend is there this summer. I have always regretted not going to China and Africa when I had friends living there so I may just take him up on it. It might be worth a little credit card debt.
3) I recently changed the "I'd like to meet people for" section of my profiles on MySpace and Friendster to no longer include Dating or Relationships. Why do I still get messages from people like this?
Note: I believe "arrnest" means "honest" in this context.
I always knew I was intelligent and well educated but I didn't realize that some people got out of school with so little absorbed into their brains. It almost makes you want to become a teacher and make some sort of difference. But then you realize they had teachers who probably started out all excited about molding young minds and then just got jaded by bureaucracy. My favorite teacher in high school refused to eat lunch with the other teachers because the gossip and bitching just got him down. I think that was a good call on his part. He was much more happy to be there imparting knowledge than some of his counterparts. Even though the subjects he taught - physics and math - were my least favorites, he was still my favorite teacher. I think it's time I write him a letter saying so.
4) Shit. I just realized I left a recognizable as me post on a blog I sent my mother because I thought she'd like it. I was logged in as Sassy Pants and it links back to this blog. She's SO going to find her way here. I hope she lets me know so that I can at least put mom disclaimers and apologies before things she may not want to read.
5) Hello to Portugal, The United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Canada, and Iraq (so that's where Iraq is! How pathetic is my knowledge of the geography of that region. It may be Kuwait though - it's hard to see where the dot is - so hello to you too.)!
6) If you'd like to see pictures of my high school and those horrible halls I describe in this post, go here.

It is disheartening, the part where people are so fuctionally illiterate. It can make you sad to think about it. Don't think about it.
