Today's updates...

1. Another political-type thing.

2. I'm someone who tries to stay somewhat informed of the world around me, but the news is just too fucking depressing most of the time. They say ignorance is bliss, and they're right, in a way. I saw this show recently about a six year old girl who had to have major surgery to straighten her spine, or it would crush her lungs and kill her within a few years. She'd already had many complications with her scoliosis. Who would want this sweet girl to die? That bearded white dude in the sky? What a prick he must be.

3. If you see one movie this year, make it Sci-Fi original, "Mansquito."

4. Going to "trivia weekend" in Steven's Point tomorrow through Sunday with E. Sassypants, Cara, and hopefully Mike (all ex-bordists) along with a few of their other friends, do this every year. I guess a local radio station has 24 hour trivia questions (like one question between every song or two). You call in, say your team name and the answer, and you get points, like trivia in a bar. We're staying in a seedy motel the first night, then a nice one for the rest of the weekend. From what I hear, much drinking and tomfoolery will take place, along with little sleep. I'll tell you all about it!
