Random rants of the day
My head is so stuffed-up that I think it is going to explode, and decongestants seem to be doing no good. So I am not necessarily in the best of moods. Here's my rants of the day:
- I'm sick of getting sick all the time. I've been getting sinus infections five to eight times per winter since high school. I am so prone to disease, I'm just damn lucky that childhood diseases like polio, measles, mumps, etc. were eliminated before I was born. Otherwise, I wouldn't have lived past 10.
- Someone from "unavailable number" has called my cell phone five times today, but has yet to leave a voicemail. Last I checked, that was the whole point of voicemail: if you actually have a legitimate reason for calling my phone, leave a message. If not, then I guess you're probably a useless telemarketer who can rot in hell anyway.
- My apartment is about 80 degrees (F) today. It's crazy. It's like a sauna, except completely dry. So it's actually not very much like a sauna. I appreciate my apartment building's commitment to making sure we don't freeze to death, but some rational relationship between the temperature of the boiler and the outside temp would be appreciated.
- I was listening to Michael Jackson's "Thriller". Can someone tell me what the hell that song is supposed to be about? It sounds pretty freaky to me. Great riffs though.
- I'm not sure I could have picked a more boring trio of law professors for my final semester of law school. The only class I can stand is my class in the business school (it is, in fact, shaping up to be my favorite class of of law school -- go figure). My three law classes, on the other hand, would the worst case of insomnia.
- I got my Ticketmaster "Buy tickets to all these cool shows" email this afternoon. The subject line was "Don't miss Lifehouse." Could they possibly put a less inspiring band in their subject line. First of all, who knew that Lifehouse (a horrid, post-alternative, one-hit-wonder ["Hanging by a Moment"]) still existed, let alone that they were on tour. And who the hell is paying to go see their shows? Putting all of this together, why were they worthy of a Ticketmaster subject line? The same email had alerts for tickets to see Sammy Hager and Blues Traveler. Why not advertise them. At least they're washed-up has-beens that people actually liked.
