rhetorical questions

why does it have to be so freakin hot at 1000 in the morning? i broke a sweat going from my front door to the car. something needs to be done about this! where's the evil villian and his freeze ray when i need him?

why haven't i been able to write about anything intellectual lately? has being out of school for 9 months really ruined my opinions and my thirst for knowledge and arguements?

why are ebay buyers so crazy? they are willing to pay 10 bucks for a shirt (+7.00 shipping) that i would have sold at my mom's garage sale for 50 cents. i mean, it's not like i'm advertising these things as brand new or anything! most of my clothes are in good condition though b/c i usually get tired of stuff not long after i buy it. bad habit i know. my auctions end today and i think the grand total was over $60 again this week. that's 100 bucks in two weeks! and i would have made like 5% of that if i took it to a garage sale. although i can't knock the ebay buyers. i've been trying to win a Palm handheld for like 2 weeks now. but i have a limit as to how much i'll pay, and usually that limit is half the retail value of the thing. AND i only bid on things that are new, never used, still in original packaging. i want a Palm Tungsten C with the keyboard and everything on the handheld, but those look like they sell for like 400 on ebay and i don't have 400 right now. so i'm lowering my expectations to a Palm Tungsten T2 which is just as neat w/o the keyboard.

why am i really excited about this new person in my life? i think it's the fresh outlook or something. i don't know. i'm really nervous at the same time. i'm afraid of what the future holds. i mean look at the track record, it can't be too promising. but then new people bring new opportunities and possibly new outcomes, so surely it can't all be bad. i get those butterflies you know? and every other time i've gotten the butterflies, bad things happen. so i guess that's why i'm nervous. i'm trying to stay positive though! and it's nice to have different people to talk to all the time.

chicago comes out tuesday. now that's something to be excited about. :)
