Today is August 16, 2010
Today was so busy, that I have nothing to say about it except that is was busy. Thankfully I’ve been sleeping better than I can remember sleeping. Those stupid little breathe right strips are going to change my life.

There is a lot going on right now. I can’t really provide details yet because I’m still a little unsure how things will work out. Hopefully in about a week or so, everything will be set in stone and I can relax a little.
In other news, I spent most of the day in Pittsburgh aboard one of the Gateway Clipper boats for some family-fun-something-or-other. Basically, everyone was given a free ice cream and a magic show followed by some tunes ripped right from the Disney pre-teen library.
Jamie and I were surprised that these kids knew all the words to these songs, and somehow danced with very specific moves in perfect choreography. Do the kids meet up at recess and practice a dance routine or something? One girl even did backflips between two rows of kids. After everyone cheered, I realized how UN cool I was at that age. I didn’t know the words to any of the popular songs at the time, and I couldn’t dance.
Unfortunately I haven’t gotten much cooler. These eight year olds could out-dance me.
Also, the kids seemed to be having more fun than I ever remember having at that age. When I was that age, my parents were on the verge of divorce and I worried about things like house fires or burglaries. I guess my parents splitting up forced me into an early adulthood, alienating me from other kids my age.
Reading what I just wrote seems more depressing than it really was. I didn’t have a BAD childhood. And I know that these days, marriages that work are pretty rare. I guess I just wish I had learned how to have fun as a child.

I’m watching Criminal Minds on CBS right now. I only half-watch this show occasionally. It seems like every episode is about some killer who finds his victims through social networking sites. I roll my eyes every time I see something like this.

The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas.
Jamie (girlfriend) and I are planning to sit down today and figure out what the next couple years of our life will look like. We both have big decisions to make about school, where we will live, and *gasp* the M-word. Wish me luck on this one, folks. I get terribly anxious about big changes.
I met this woman who has a hobby of entering sweepstakes and contests. She spends about two hours a day with it. Two hours may seem excessive, but she pointed out that it is more productive than sitting on Farmville.
This woman has won a ridiculous amount of stuff including, a trip to Hawaii, a H2 Hummer, cash, video game systems, and hats.
Not that I need another time waster in my day, but I might be willing to sacrifice the gym if I can win a trip to Hawaii instead.
