if you ever wanted to know what kind of a horrible person i was, then look no farther. i stand before you, a judgmental hypocrite. as i was driving out my drive way, a guy walked in front of the xterra and called out for me. i stopped and he began his story like most people about to ask for a ride or a dime. i wasn't going to have it, so i let my foot off the brake, but something stopped me (no not his foot!). luckily, the guy was looking away as he was asking, not for change, but an exchange. he had pennies and needed a quarter. he needed to make a phone call. so i told him not to trust the pay phones in the complex, but to go to the store. also, in my shame, i gave him the quarter. i felt bad. the guy was polite and everything. anyway, that's my story. believe it OR NOT!

I had orientation at the museum today. it was alright. had fun visiting the different exhibits. i hadn't been to a couple, either in a long while or ever. the best part was getting sleep in the IMAX. I fell asleep in the first part, but it got better (and I started snoring) so i decided to wake up and watch as much as possible. it was so sad. i felt sad for the rovers on mars. they were only supposed to be in service for 90 days but have been going none stop for a while now. at the end, the narrator informed us that one day, those rovers won't have enough energy to handle the cold nights. they won't be able to produce heat to keep them warm through the night and in the morning...they won't wake up:( that's sad. i want to go to mars with some windex to clean off their solar panels and some 3-n-1 oil to grease up their joints so they can go for miles and miles and miles and miles.
you should come to the museum. it'll be great!

Day 3
It seems that I've stopped smoking again. So, from now on, I'll keep you posted. THis time, with any luck, will be the last time and you'll never have to hear about smoking again.
