man, i am beat today. i actually worked the entire afternoon. however, my stuff isn't working (don't you hate core dumps?), so i'm a bit frustrated. i hate it when things fail and you don't understand why they fail. anyways, just some whining about work, that's all.
so tonight's the premiere of _dancing with the stars_. i am only slightly interested in this because i want to see how emmitt smith (of dallas cowboys fame) does. and maybe jerry springer. i don't want to watch the entire two hours, though.
so summer's winding down. it's getting dark sooner and sooner, and in october, daylight savings will end (or kick in, i don't know which is which), which means *really* early nights. that's depressing. it sucks to leave work when it's completely dark. i feel like i missed out on summer. i didn't do anything to enjoy the great weather and stuff. oh well.
sometimes i find it interesting what people consider cute or pretty (in terms of people). i've had instances where people show me a picture of a so-called cute girl, and i find them hideous in my eyes. and there have been cases otherwise, too, although those happen far less frequently. i wonder where we get standards from; i mean, how do we come to decide for ourselves what is aesthetically pleasing or not? what influences our decisions?
ok, that's it. my brain is fried. and the bad news is that while i was typing this, my simulation died again. fucking core dump. :(
