More stuff that no one will really read...

Ok, so I guess I said yesterday that I had my first set of days off in almost two weeks. Well, it seems that I was wrong. That's right, they called me into work. It seems that nobody can seem to hold their schedules there, as I have worked for more people in my short time at ledos than I ever did in three years at Charlestown. It's not the worst thing in the world, seeing as I pulled in $55 for 4 hours of work, but it still gets annoying when every couple of days someone is asking me to work for them and I feel obligated to have a good excuse as to why I can't.

In a completely unexpected change of topic, my Discussion Group earlier today was talking about an article on pornography we had to read for class... This woman claims that pornography is bad because it oppresses women. It should be censored if and only if "it describes degrading and abusive sexual behavior so as to endorse and/or recommend the behavior as described." I have problems with this definition to begin with, but making things worse, our TA tried to argue with me that even if we censor material which "contributes to the violence of women", we shouldn't censor material which could contribute to violence towards men (apparently because there is no such violence, where there is violence toward women). I'm sick of this topic, and I'm sick of the feministic agendas behind it.

Perhaps later today, me and my $55 will go out and do something fun. I don't know what yet, and it all kind of hinges on who could go with me, but I'll probably do something. For now, I have to call up the mechanic and set up a time for him to check on that biker I'm dragging when I drive, then I have to do some reading (I'm so far behind). I think I'll read about why my life is absurd ("Mortal Questions" by Thomas Nagel).


If I can't swim after 40 days, and my mind is crushed by the crashing waves...
LIFT ME UP!
