I only eat things with "stix" in the name

Well, today was bad. It's getting worse, so I expect to slip in the shower and go into a coma for several days, so if you don't hear from me in a while, that's probably why. Here is a timetable of my day:

10:24: getting out of bed. (this part is good.)

10:50: fighting with spouse

11:15: fighting with spouse, crying

12:00: sitting in veryboring (yes, one word) grad association meeting

12:47: planning to confront kind-of friend about stupid remark which exhibited comp/rhet people's persecution complex

1:04: running (late) into class which I loathe but wish I didn't but definitely loathe

1:05: arguing with spouse

1:06-2:00: loathing class

2:07: dreading returning to class after break

2:08-3:40: loathing class

3:43: being very pissed off that class has actually gone over time

4:20: grousing w/spouse and office mate about how and why graduate school sucks

5:00: being impatient to eat

6:25: eating yummy bread, then yummy salad

7:00-8:30: Argue with spouse in car

8:30: reading Salon.com, I come across article about environmental disaster in my father's hometown

8:45: I call father, say, do you want to meet for dinner tomorrow?

8:45: Father says yes

8:47: I say, hey, have you heard about this environmental disaster in your hometown?

8:47: Father says, yeah! Your second cousin owns that coal company!

8:48: I contemplate whether being related to evil people makes me inherently evil, even just a little bit.

8:49: I wonder why my dad laughs about things like "according to the EPA, this was the worst environmental disaster in the Eastern United States," and terminal cancer, just like Dr. Hibbard does on the Simpsons.

8:50: I realize I haven't been responding to my Dad. I respond.

8:51: I scan article for second cousin's name (not there) and continue contemplating questions of evil running in families.

9:25: Act snippily toward spouse.

9:30: Play with dog (disappearing rag toy game)

9:50: Waste time on internet

10:00: Waste 1/2 hour typing stupid pointless blog entry about my stupid pointless painful stupid day.

10:33: Contemplate whether predicting near-death incident in shower foretells my doom.

10:34: Decide to leave entry as it is.
