Entering the Millennium

I'm an official member of the millennium. Wanna know why? I got an iPod over the weekend! Woohoo! It's one of the best gadgets I've ever owned. I think it's somewhat of a gyp that iTunes charges a buck a song but I already had close to a thousand MP3's (should I even put that out there on the internet??) on my computer so I had a good library to upload and listen to this week.

We took another trip to Manchester, NH on Sunday; The Land of No Sales Tax! Heheh. We bought the girls their back to school stuff and a few other odds and ends. We also hit up Bertucci's which has the best pizza we've ever had anywhere. Wood-fired buddy! Blows Pizza Hut clear out of the water, lol.

This is a tidbit that's been floating around in my head for a couple weeks now so I'll take this opportunity to bring it up...Have any of you ever seen the documentary Supersize Me? If you haven't and you're a fastfood lover you should. That's one freaking scary ass documentary. I haven't touched fastfood since I've seen it. You know they put preservatives and other crap in their food to make you crave it and become emotionally dependent on it, right? Keep that in mind next time you're thinking that you just have to have a Big Mac. I have no idea what I'm going to eat on the way to North Carolina when we move, lol.

There are other political, religious, ethical, and social issues that have been fighting to get out of my head for some time now but I've been hesitant to bring them up here. Why? Well, for several reasons actually, some of which I'm sure some of you are smart enough to figure out for yourselves. But I think once my classes are over and I have time to actually write about these things, I'm going to start posting them. Just figured I'd give a heads up and give ya'll time to brace yourselves, heheh. I'll be putting the tens of thousands of dollars that I have wracked up in student loans to good use.

Anyway, enough of all that. I have 3 finals due tomorrow so I need to get off of here and get them finished up. Laters.
