The Badgers are among us

And they have kept me from posting for almost two months. Actually, my lack of ambition combined with my two jobs and class have kept me from posting. The Badgers have just been hanging around for ornamental purposes. As for my two jobs, it will soon become one job. I will loose my one-day-a-week retail job because the assclowns on high have decided our region isn't making enough profit. Technically, since they're closing every store east of Utah, it isn't that we're not doing good business, it just means they don't want to get off of their asses to travel very far. The good news is that after the close, I'll have my whole weekend free to waste on booze and Taiwaneese hookers. I can't wait.

I was thinking though about getting another weekend job after Mervyn's closes. I don't mind retail at all, as long as it isn't full time. That really does blow. Personally, I could see myself working a day each weekend at a ToysRUs. Well, the "working" part is a stretch. I can at least see myself pretending to work while I take advantage of the employee discount and lack of security. I mean, if they just let me cram my jacket full of toys and walk out, then they're practically asking me to do it.

As for the class I'm currently taking. wow....what a pile of flaming shit. Not only do I have to sit in class for 4 hours on a Friday night, but our one professor may be the only African American Nazi on the entire planet. She yelled at us because we questioned the ethicallity of one of her decisions. She also told us that we weren't allowed to do that or talk amongst ourselves about her according to the University's honor code. I told her that maybe she should take some time off and catch up on some popular readings she may have missed....like the Constitution. I made the points that:
1) We're all adults and can say what we want, provided it doesn't count as libel or slander.
2) It's a private university and we don't pay $350 dollars a credit hour to be denied our opinions and concerns.
I may have also said something to my classmates that she heard along the lines of "If I were her, I wouldn't be such a fascist bitch." It's all a bit fuzzy though so I can't be certain. Needless to say, she doesn't like me, or the rest of the class.

Halloween. The time when grown men run around dressed up in hideously stupid costumes in order to scare and/or impress other idiots who are also dressing up. Guess what...I'm one of those grown men, and I too am dressing up. Although my costume is neither hideous or stupid. This year I'm going as Willy Wonka. The Depp Wonka, not the Wilder Wonka. I take great pride in knowing my costume isn't one of those cheap bagged ensembles made of paper thin material. Oh hell no. When I do a costume, I do it right God Damnit. There are a few minor details to the costume that I can't get perfectly accurrate, but it's close.......maybe a little too close. I've even got Wonka bars to hand out to people while in costume. At this year's Halloween party, I will be the defending champion. I won with last year's amazing Two-Face outfit and I hope that dressing as an effeminate, withdrawn, and overly creepy candy baron will keep the winning steak going. I'll post a pic when I have one. Now all I have to do is learn the song so I can sing it continuously...

I know this post wasn't entertaining in any way, shape, or form, but if you're reading this sentence, then it just proves what a tool you are. You'll read anything won't you?
