Breaktime

  I declare it blog vacation time. This way, I don't feel like a slacker.
  Am I going to a beach like the one pictured above? Only in my mind. Only. In. My. Mind.
  So I'll start writing again later. Please don't kick me off your blog reader. Maybe I'll do a post every day in March. Maybe.

Again with the list

  My "25 things" list has gotten a couple comments from friends about this one: "16. I am competitive. I enjoy crushing people in defeat, and being crushed in return."
  I think they're missing the "crushed in return" part. I'm quite sure I lose more games than I win. Why do I play? Because winning isn't everything. But if I'm not trying to win, what's the point?
  Another one that got comments was "20. I was the valedictorian of my high school class of 535 people. I'm totally smart. Or am I totally good at manipulating the system? Oh, right. It's the second one."
  A class valedictorian is the person who was the best at getting good grades. This doesn't mean he or she was the smartest person in class, nor on the road to greatest success. It was all about the grades, which is stupid.

  In other news, I've had a headache for two days. I need to get to bed and see whether I wake up feeling better or dead.
