Am I A Bad Person?

We had a second brown recluse pop up this morning - it was sitting on the ceiling in the hallway. Our chosen means of disposal involves a piece of tape stuck to the end of an extension pole. I don't know why these spiders are called recluses since the three we've spotted have been out in the open. Of course, the hallway was dark & it was in a corner.

Rob, in all his infinite wisdom, decided to flush the piece of tape w/the dead spider on it down the toilet. He then came into my room where I was ironing & proceeded to brag about the wonders of modern plumbing. I said, "Yeah, it's all fine & dandy until that piece of strapping tape sticks to the side of the pipe & causes your toilet to overflow".

About 5 minutes later, I hear his toilet flush & he said, "Bloody hell". Yep, the piece of tape is lodged somewhere in the pipe and is not letting his toilet flush. He gets to spend the day w/his parents as a result. When he called his mom to ask for money (it's his money - she bought the truck for Tania & Alex), she of course, went off on him.

Am I a bad person for thinking the whole thing is fucking hilarious?

Hmmm. I Must Meditate on This

I'm all for loopholes...

Capricorn Horoscope for week of October 2, 2008

Most American companies don't pay any federal income tax. During a recent seven-year period, 1.3 million businesses earned well over a trillion dollars but didn't pony up a penny to the U.S. government. I mention this, Capricorn, because it's now a favorable time, astrologically speaking, for you to seek comparable perks. Look into this, please: Maybe you don't have to keep having your assets drained in ways you've always assumed were inevitable. I'm talking metaphorically as well as literally; I'm referring to emotional and psychic energy as well as actual money. Are there any legal and ethical loopholes you can exploit to free yourself from long-running burdens?

Procrastination, Woohoo

Went to the college today, which is something I've been putting off. After this semester I just need 5 more CIT classes... and I'll have my Associate's Degree.

I'm kind of terrified of that right now.
