• So in spanish class we're doing some 10 minute group skits and today we're talking about when we're going to practice and one of the girls in my group says "okay we're going to have to practice on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night" and I'm all like "Friday night doesnt work for me, I've already made plans with someone" (guess who?) and then she says "Well I guess you're going to have to cancel your date because..." and I interrupt her with a "NO."  That shut her up pretty quick, she stared at me for a second and said "Okay then, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday sound good for everyone?"

   

  I normally wouldnt raise my voice to a woman, but to even suggest that someone should cancel their Friday night plans is just flat-out rude.

   

  I did the whole voting-thing today, cast my ballot for Barack Obama and voted yes on Prop 1 and 2 (for the legalization of medical marijuana and further studies of stem-cell research, respectively).  Felt good, I waited in line for only about 5 minutes, totally painless.  I'm doing another research study where they're collecting saliva samples from immediately after I hear the poll results, getting $10 from it.  I also got a check for $6 from online surveys that I've completed.  Yeah, I'm rolling in the cash.
