I have gotten my hands on a math worksheet creator. It goes up to some simple algebra. I think this will save me lots of time in creating things for my sister to do in order to keep her from becoming an idiot. In other words, I'd rather insult her intelligence as much as possible now (and in the process, get her to learn things) than have her complain about it to Dutter Jr in 10 years.

I was teaching her two-digit addition, with carrying digits, and apparently she learned it in five minutes. I don't know how she did this. I don't remember myself understanding anything that quickly. Actually, I probably learned to sleep and eat meat and watermelon pretty quickly.

So far, the list of Xangas that have managed to kill my browser (Mozilla.exe/Firefox.exe has caused an illegal operation... and will be shut down) include Eva's, some Xanga freak girl's annoying Xanga (every time, including just now), and for some reason Davita's fried my browser today.

Today Ms. Boyd got really mad at me. I walked into class and immediately put my head down and went into REM 4 sleep. 20 minutes later during the class discussion, she decides to wake me up, so she says stuff like "are you with us, David?" and "David! David!!" over and over and I don't wake up. Then someone hits or pokes me and I wake up. I'm asleep again (unintentionally) in less than 5 minutes. Then this sequence of events repeats itself, and she tells me that if I'm going to sleep to just stay home. I don't know what to do about this, other than just not do Busy Work.

Meanwhile, Busy Work is killing my health. Other than two-day-runny-nose-colds, I've only been sick once or twice for the past few years, and even then they went away in just a few days. The lack of sleep is catching up to me. I've never had this bad a cough in my life. Perhaps I should sue the Master of Busy Work.

Grebe made the best comment in AP Busy Work today. Just after I finished a short conversation about the Devil eating babies (while she was out of the room), she walks back in. ("Speak of the Devil and she shall appear!") Then KT asks for a packet to be stapled and put into manila folder, and the response is that she has no time to do this etc etc. Then she says something about a stork dropping these to people's houses, which is highly funny in itself. Then Grebe says that storks drop babies. I collapsed on my desk immediately in a massive fit of laughter.

In response to not only CiCi, but also everyone else who complains about gossiping, it's a fact of life. Your parents gossip, the teachers gossip, and so will everyone you hang around. There really isn't much to be done about this, because you can't dictate how people run their lives. But as Dragos said, you can control what comes out of your mouth and just stop talking. I guess that's a workaround, but workarounds are usually not true solutions.

I got my new table put in. Everything is fine except my stupid keyboard. The cord is about three feet too short. The cheap solution is to not use the keyboard tray for the keyboard and put the keyboard on the table so the cord can be shorter. Waste of a keyboard pull-out tray. Better than buying a new keyboard or a wire extender.

I took pictures of a mosquito in my school canned peaches. I'll post one later.

Stacy's mom has got it going on...
