I feel crappy today.

Instead of sleeping last night, I involuntarily swallowed almost constantly. This was to reduce the dry, itching at the back of my throat, which was quite horrendous. But since I had to do it every 20 or 25 seconds, it apparently didn't help much. As a topper, I had a sick stomach because of all the saliva I'd swallowed this morning.

My mom gave me a throat lozenge, which let me get some sleep for about two hours. Then I went to school.

My throat is still nasty and I keep hacking/coughing. All day at school. This is big deal for me, because I don't have allergies (soon to change? D:) and I never get sick.

I think it's the amount of chlorine they put in the stinking pool. It burned my nasal passages out..

OH, YEAH! Now I remember that yesterday I got a bunch of that bitter water up my nose and I had to stop to catch my breath.

Anyway. It sucks. Hope your days are better!

I should have done paradigms while I had the chance. There's this guy on Deviant Art who likes asking Great Questions, making philosophical polls, and such. Needless to say, I thrive on the threads he indirectly creates. I was (calmly) discussing if Christians are insecure because of our belief. AFTER the thread ended (peacefully) some guy comes out of nowhere with just a link.

The link lead to the Zeitgeist Movie, which I've seen. I responded, saying that most of the "evidence" the movie put forth against the Bible isn't really evidence, just suspicion and speculation, which of course is understandable because of the age of the book but doesn't really prove anything. Then I brought up a few points about the absurdity of a self creating universe, (mostly the ones I've pointed out here), and left it at that.

OH! I've taken to pasting "Please note that I am not offended, and don't mean to offend. Just wanted to point that out. Thanks." to the end of all my religious comments. It can get repetitive and probably a little obnoxious, but it's a point I want to be very clear. Anyways...

I got off on a side-thread with some guy about the Lock Ness Monster and stuff (again, very peaceful) when the guy comes out of NOWHERE again with...this...BLOCK of incoherent text. I took 9 or 10 minutes trying to figure out what this guy was trying to say before I gave up and asked him to make it something we could discuss and not just his blatantly biased opinion. I'd show you what was said, but I lost the link to the thread...if it comes up in my message box again, I'll show you all.

The moral of the story is that now I DO want to write something with a religious tone to it, but I won't because I think that everyone's patience with me on the matter is kind of low. I'll wait. :P

Yesterday I got on a blow-up raft and got pulled behind a boat on the local lake. It was like tubing, but it used a lot more muscle (OH YEAH!) because it's a lot harder to stay on than an inner tube. So my arms were VERY sore yesterday and today.

Thankfully, the swim meet for today was stormed out. Unfortunately, I wasted more than 2 hours of my day waiting for the silly officials to come to that decision. So. Today has been a mixed bag.

I'm back, and I have nothing to post.

Reading about Anonymous. Interesting idea.

After reading some blogs earlier, I've been reminded that there are certain aspects of one's life that one keeps to one's self. Seriously. Don't taint the beauty.

sleep mode.
