ugh. i had to go to a stupid baby shower today. i really would have preferred having my eyes burned out.

okay, maybe it wasn't that bad. but it sucked.

it was for mike's sister-in-law. she's going to have a baby in about a month.

we all know what i think of babies, so i won't get into that. but i also get creeped out by what babies do to other people. particularly women.

what is it about stupid babies, or stupid baby accessories (like omg the cutest booties ever!) that turns normal, educated, articulate women into a bunch of ga-gaing, squealing morons?

i mean, men don't react this way to babies and/or baby accessories? why do women feel the need to act retarded when babies are present?

it's so stupid! grrr.

so yeah, the shower drove me nuts. i was soooo out of place there. if i'm ever convinced to procreate i DO NOT want a baby shower. should i get married, i don't want a shower for that either.

on another note, i just spent a good hour fixing up some pictures on my computer. a lot of the pictures were really dark, and i've got this great picture editor thing with my free trial of microsoft office '07. it makes it super easy to adjust the brightness of pictures without making them look washed out.

i'm thinking i might cave and buy myself the home/student edition of microsoft office. it's about $180, which isn't too bad, especially considering i make money now and have nearly $2k in the bank. i probably still owe visa nearly a thousand, but that's okay.

and crash is evil again. i seriously want to defenestrate him. i really hope he grows out of this stupid annoying jerk puppy phase soon!

daily dose of stupid:
two best reasons not to go on vacation
arthur brisbane was an editorial columnist who spent fifty years working for the hearst newspapers. as a reward for his service, the publisher offered brisbane six months off with pay.
brisbane turned down the offer, explaining: "the first reason is that if i quit writing my column for six months it might affect the circulation of your newspaper. the second reason is that it might not affect the circulation."
