Well, I know there’s a balance of good and bad things in my life. I get confused about something, and it works out for the better the next week. I have a great day and it suddenly ends on a downer. Now there’s a new sort of balance in Dodge. Some things make perfect sense and go along with my understanding of the world. Then there are the things that just knock me right on my butt. Right now, I’m right on my butt, twitching and wondering how I got confused so fast.
Today was as productive as any Saturday. I went to Taco Bell and Subway. I watched ‘Pulp Fiction’. Strange movie. I got two new cd’s - by Jimmie’s Chicken Shack and Mojo Nixon. I am so far pleased with them. Lately this summer whenever I have something to worry about, the problem fixes itself. It’s almost as if someone was following me around and fixing my problems while I sleep.
SETI@home is up and running. You can download a 700kb client program and sift through data with hopes of finding alien broadcasts. A more likely chance is that the program will say you found aliens, when you only intercepted a real old Ed Sullivan show that bounced off a nearby galaxy.
BOOM!!! HA HA HA HA!!! POOF! I just really messed up or fixed my webpage. I’ll know in a week or so. I told you I was going to change stuff. To celebrate, I think I’m going to go downstairs and eat. Oh, by the way- I took a nap today. Where did I get the idea? Bear in the Big Blue House. I am not joking.

For the first time in weeks, I sit in my dorm room and I’m cold. Earlier today, two housing repairmen raided and plundered my a/c unit and (without asking permission) replaced it with a working one.
Here’s a joke from The Simpsons:

I just finished reading Scott Adams’ 1997 book, The Dilbert Future. It’s basically a good perception of American society, technology, government, ideology, whatever. My favorite part was the last chapter where he wrote about how our current perception of the universe might be completely wrong, how time, gravity, cause and effect, and other stuff might be something else. It’s neat. Read it. I found it at a Waldenbook’s store for 80 percent off the $25 cover price. It shouldn’t be very hard to find cheap.
Hey hey hey, I’m back in Gainesville. Guess who’s thinking about revamping his whole website again? Things are good, more or less. The A/C in my summer dorm room isn’t working, so I’ll either get it fixed or try to move elsewhere in Yulee Hall. Today was my first day of work for the college of Human Health and Performance, or Health and Human Performance, or whatever. It’s the HHP college, whatever that means. Short story shorter, this job seems to be quite a good thing. I get to sit in a room full of toys aptly called “the room with computers.” Every once in a while, somebody who doesn’t know how to play with these very expensive Legos asks for help; I help them; I return to the toy room. And today I got some free fried chicken.
