I got my watch for Christmas pre-set. It just somehow knew that the very day I got it was December 25th of 2001, which just so happened to be a Tuesday (which it knew).
Today, as you can see from the date, is Feburary 29th. This only happens every four years, the 29th of Februrary. This year is known as a leap-year. It's also known as an election year.
I'm quite angry at my watch right now. According to it, today is the first of March, which just so happens to be a Sunday. It's right today being a Sunday. But it's not right about today being March, or the first.
"But why don't you just reset it?" you may be asking right now. And why I shouldn't reset it: the four buttons on this watch are tougher to press than buttons on a worn-down Tamagotchi. Somehow, you're expected to set the watch with only four buttons.
"But why don't you just read the directions?" you may also be wondering. And I did read the directions. The problem is, the Japanese are famous for their ability to royally screw up the English language.
I have no problem with that. But what I do have a problem with is the fact that my watch was made in the USA. The directions still make no sense. Last time I checked, most people who live in America (who make electronics, that is) can speak English.
And also, last time I checked "pushy pushy left button to make go beep shreak sound" was a sentence that made no sense at all. I guess every four years, my watch will foward one day.

While at a restraunt, I heard some music by the Dave Mathews Band played over the restraunt's stereo system. Now, I've never really taken the time to listen to their stuff a lot, but what I've heard so far is pretty good.
I've only got one problem with their music. It seems that in any environment that doesn't allow complete silence, the lead singer sounds like he's just incoherently mumbling.
Not "Louie Louie" incoherently mumbling. It's a mild mumbling case. Sort of like Ozzy Osborne. You can just barely make out a few of the words, and you get the general gist of what he's trying to say.
As I said earlier, it's not "Louie Louie" or police radio bad. It's just somewhere between "Louie Louie" and Yoko Ono.
Wait. Yoko Ono doesn't incoherently mumble. She just incoherently screams. My bad.

Unnoteable Comment: I ate at Perkins tonight.
Boring Comment: I ate a burger at Perkins tonight.
Noteable Comment: I ate a burger at Perkins tonight near some Amish people.
Yes. Amish people. In full Amish garb. Really.
They sat in the booth next to us. For some reason, I felt guilty when I got bored and started playing on my Palm in front of them. But hey, I did get a high score in Bejeweled.
I don't know, but it seems as if Perkins is an Amish favorite. We once had an Amish waitress. Either that, or she was just wearing the head thing for fun.
Come to think of it, we've had a lot of interesting waiters and waitresses at Perkins. On Halloween, a guy with a beard served us in a dress and high-pitched voice. He pretended as if it were perfectly normal.
I should really eat at Perkins more often.

There's one thing I find funny about the Spanish language: you must put "el" or "la" in front of every word. If you've lost your sock in America, you are looking for a sock. If you've lost your sock in Mexico, you have to look for "el calcetÃn", or, literally, "the sock". Does this mean that there are so few socks in Mexico that any sock is "the sock"?

So, as previously stated by other people, there was an incident today involving a drawing, a grudge, a golf club, and physical violence. You can put the rest together on your own.
This incident reminded me of an When I was about seven, I stood too close to someone batting with a metal bat. This resulted in a large bump on my head. All I really remember about that is falling to the ground, thinking "This ground feels nice," which was very true, considering that the ground has never felt nicer. Two weeks later, I broke my arm in an unrelated incident. This caused the doctor who treated me to question my mom's ethics and wonder if she was beating me. I'm sure he was mistaken on that part.
I now have fears of both golf clubs and baseball bats now. Thanks to this incident, that's two more sports I will never play again in my life.
Except mini-golf.

What's this? Why do I have to be butt-man?! For one, I should be butt-women, secondly it would make far more sense for my weapon of choice to be the ghetto booty, not a record. As amusing as your little post was, you should really reconsider the arrangement.
(The disgruntled mailman and city bus were nice touches though)

Well, Yes, you were right. This will probably spin off into something. What that will be...I don't know. But for now, I will ask just one question. Do you really think a crew of unexperinced carpenters can constuct a set including four real walls, sink, cabnetry, two doors, and measure and lay for astroturf and carpet, all in the next four weeks? I'll be looking foreward to your response.

Well, just about everyone posting on this blog had play practice this week. I've never done a scripted production like this before, but something tells me we're behind. Memorazation isn't the problem. Sears (director) is a great persnon and knows what she's doing, but I can't help but wonder if she bit off more than she can chew. She has all these plans for a really awsome/complex set, but crew only meets once a week. If we can pull this off, it'll be great. But I'm just not seeing it happening right now.

OK, now it's Yes Maybe's turn. A. Sane is a doody head who knows nothing abvout quality blogs. B. Toma, do you know what you got yourself into? C. I laugh at Sane (insert laughing here) because she STILL can't make a link. D. Hmmmm....I ran out of ideas at the moment. Oh well, just go to my blog already.

Well, toma is away for a while. I don't know for how long, or where he went, I just know I'm supposed to keep this blog updated. Hmm, what to say. This feels all wrong, like I'm invading his privacy. Oh well, guilt never stopped me in the past.
