My lack of sleep

As I'm starting to write this I am thinking to myself why I am writing instead of actually getting some sleep, maybe I should stop and go to sleep here at my desk.....nope, I've gone too far. It's a funny thing when your body has been sleep deprived for so long, at one point you get used to it, but slowly you begin to feel the effects of it. Most people get pissed and have some problems functioning when they only get 6 or so hours of sleep. Me...I am averaging somewhere between 3-4 hours a night, the nights that I actually go to sleep. Generally three or so days a week I don't even go to bed, whether it is because I just can't go to sleep or if I am too paranoid about not waking up for work or school. Anyway, like I said before it starts to get to you if it goes on for too long and I have been in this cycle for approx. 4-5 years now so yeah.....Lets just say that I am feeling the effects full force. Sucks for me, but some of the "incidents" are good for a quick laugh. For example, On Monday I sat through almost an entire Ethics class before finally realizing that I don't have an Ethics class. I even took notes and didn't realize that I was in the wrong classroom. I was curious why the teacher kept looking at me weird...I thought she was crazy :). The thing that finally made me notice that I had been in the wrong class was one of the people who is normally in my class walked by and noticed I was sitting in the room taking notes and I looked over and saw him and after a few seconds of pondering I realized what happened. Oh well, at least I have some notes for when I actually do have an Ethics class. This is just one example of my absent mindedness. There have been others that have happened, but lets just say that, well, I just don't want to mention them, enough said. Actually just now I realized that I should have clocked out of work about an hour ago.....go me. Ok, well I am going to go home now and sleep.....ah who am I kidding, I'll sleep in a few years....

My Voting Record

So today is election day and I am happy yet sad at the same time about this. Happy that these 2 years of campaigning are finally over, but sad that it looks like Barack Obama is going to win. Why does this make me sad, well, I get this urge to punch myself in the face every time I hear Obama speak and when he wins I'll have to hear his bullshit practically everyday...Looks like I'll be having a black eye for a few years. Other reasons as to why...well I don't really feel like writing them down right now simply because just thinking about these things makes me want to do what....that's right, punch myself in the face. Man, if I want to live through the next few years I may have to live in a hole for a while, oh wait, I guess once Obama completely wrecks the economy worse than it already is I'll probably be living in one anyway. That’s what I call being ahead of the game. I wonder how well wallpaper sticks to cardboard, hmmm....Anyway I am curious as to why people are actually voting for Obama. Every person I have talked to about it, with the exception of one, hasn't had a reason past "He speaks all pretty like". Hell, I could buy, err...I mean win...a presidential election too if I had infinite money and all I ever said was, "Hope", "Change", and "Yes We Can". I'd have every person with an IQ less than 80 waving my colors...this sounds really familiar....I will give Obama the fact that he does give a good speech, mainly because he doesn't mention anything worthwhile, but good speeches none the less. Funny thing about that though, you know who else gave good speeches.....Hitler, that’s right, I said it, and we all know how that turned out for the world. We'll see what happens to all of his "promises" when the shit really hits the fan. We’ll see if he can bullshit his way out of some of those situations, actually he might be able to knowing the intelligence of some of these other dumbass leaders. Ha-ha...does anyone remember those "eye messages" that your teachers taught you in middle school? You know, the whole "I feel bad, when you hit me, and I want you to stop" bullshit that you were supposed to say to a bully. Did that ever actually work for anyone, seriously...I tried it once and I got laughed at and then punched in the face. I get punched in the face by other people sometimes too, not just by myself. After switching strategies on this kid, one day I decided "eye for an eye" instead of the "eye messages". He flicked me in the back of the head a couple of times so I tipped his desk over and kicked him in the face a few times...he never did anything to me again and actually we became friends later. So maybe Obama just needs to get "punched in the face" a few times and he will come to his senses. One thing I do feel like mentioning about Obama's policies is what he plans to do for the college education system. I honestly thought that he was going to have a good plan for it since the Dems generally do have better education plans, but I read up on his and well, I think we all know by now what I did to myself....He wants to make the students work even more in order to get grants and scholarships from the government. Like most students don't already have enough of a workload. Most of us have 6 or so hour’s worth of class a day, and then generally before or after that 5-8 hours’ worth of work every day and that barely gets us by. Now Obama wants to make students perform hours of community service in order to get the government grants. Yay, more of a workload, it won't really matter for me though since I can't get any grants anyway due to mom and dad making too much money, it's not like I've been living on my own for four years or anything, but whatever.....................................................................................Sorry, had to punch myself a few times for all of that. Thats my rant, had to do it, mainly because I'm bored as hell, but had to none the less. But for any of you Obama supporters reading this, please put down your pop up book for a second and go to a corner to think about what you've done. :)

Well I just looked at the election map again and if Obama takes Florida and Ohio, which it looks like he will, then he has a definite win. I wonder if I can afford to just stay drunk for four years...that may help with the pain.
