Egg Nog

Egg Nog season has now OFFICIALLY begun. I know you could've bought it in the stores for over a month now, but it doesn't taste as good until after Thanksgiving. 

Now drink as much as you can until you're sick of it. 

BONUS:

How Ben Prepares a glass of Egg Nog

-Fill glass halfway full of milk (2% preferably) 

-Pour desired amount of Egg Nog into glass

-Stir until fully mixed

-Lick Spoon

-Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top (in that order)

-Enjoy!

Dentist

So I went for my six month check-up about an hour ago. Good news! My gums are even better than last time. I really like the people we go to now because they don't bitch you out for not flossing. They're just like "hey you know, try and floss more, it's good for you and stuff," instead of "YOUR TEETH WILL FALL OUT IF YOU GO ONE MORE DAY WITHOUT FLOSSING. GINNNNNGIVITUS!!!"

But anyway, while I was at the dentist there was some little girl in the back screaming the whole time. Like total civil-war-cutting-your-leg-off-without-antiseptic screams. Or like old school dentist screams where they be drillin' into your teeth and have that bucket down there to catch all the blood. But really she just had some loose tooth that she had to wiggle out and I guess couldn't wrap her head around that.

I don't know about you but I used to love loose teeth. I mean you got to play with them all day, moving them back and forth with your tongue and stuff, and when they finally came out you got a quarter! Nothing to scream about at all, unless they are screams of pure DELIGHT. 

To wrap it up, I still don't have any cavities. Fluoride FTW!

It's Time

Do you guys know what time it is?

DO YOU???!!!

It's time to clean my room.

The ringing in my ears has VANISHED! Or at least greatly diminished. It is WONDERFUL.

GWAR

I went to a GWAR concert last Saturday. Do you know about GWAR? No? I'll TELL you about GWAR.

So basically GWAR is a bunch of super powerful space aliens that were exciled to Earth millions of years ago because they were just too bad ass. When they got here they killed all the dinosaurs, created man by commiting extremely deviant acts on apes, and then (because whoever put them here decided they were still being too bad ass) they were frozen in a big iceburg until recently when earth's pollution thawed them out. Now they go on an unending quest to rid mankind of their very lives and wont rest until they suceed.

If you dont believe all that, then you're probably not a Scientologist.

ANYWAY. Gwar at least ridded me of my hearing. Since I got out my ears have been ringing non-stop. It's really gotta end soon..SOO annoying. Like stop and do nothing RIGHT NOW. You're probably all like "Oh man, this silence is a nice break from my hectic stress filled life." When I try to do that that happens is I here "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE." Stupid GWAR.

Other than probably perminent hearing damage, the show was completely amazi-diculous. We all got sprayed with space-semen and blood while we all moshed around, and they tore peoples heads off and stuff while people like John McCain battled the band for the "Frank Sinatra Belts of World Domination." I'm not even close to making any of this up. Go see them at least once if you get the chance, but you should probably bring some earplugs.

Oldy but a goody.

Kevin still has that car. It still sucks.

Food time

They had breadbowls in the cafeteria today. I should tell you first that they hardely EVER have breadbowls. There's always soup there, sometimes it's good soup, but a breadbowl just makes the soup soo much better. I mean you can EAT the BOWL. 

Anyway, they had them out today, and I was really really excited, until I saw the soup was...ughh...split pea and beef soup. It looked like slime. Like slime that had gone bad. Kind of ruined my day. At least until I had a hotdog. That made it all better.

Doodle of the Day

Yesterday I spent at least 12 hours riding the busses and visiting every Walmart in Spokane. I'm pleased to report that they are ALL the same. 

Oh and on Monday I made fish throw up. In their barf was crawdads and other fish. So thats what fish eat. This one fish also pooped on some dude's hand, and it was kinda my fault, but you know, stuff like that happens. Plus it was yellow and if you pretend it's Gak or something you don't even get grossed out. 

Doodle of the Day

My feet hurt

I walked like MILES today looking for Manito Park up in Spokane. It's a really really really cool place with all kinds of gardens and exotic plants, and I had plans to take some pictures and put them up here, but by the time I finally stumbled upon the place it was dark and all the greenhouses were closed up. Kind of a wasted day, being lost and stuff, but boy howdy did I get some exercise, and I guess it was a pretty nice fall day. My feet still hurt though.

Anyways, instead of pictures of plants let's watch THIS:

Mitsuko Uchida

My new hero. I found out who she was today while browsing YouTube for some Mozart pieces. After seeing her in action I kinda just want to BE her. Don't you?

Doodle of the Day

"He left us! He left us!"

Michael Crichton died last Tuesday at age 66. There was nothing this man did that I was not a huge fan of. Andromeda Strain, Westworld, Coma... AND Jurassic-freaking-Park! I remember reading the book when I was only ten and I remeber it being awesome. And I think we can all agree that it was the greatest movie ever made. Hopefully future scientists will discover his blood fossilized in tree sap and bring him back so he can eat all of us. But until then, good-bye Mr. Crichton; I'll miss you a lot.

Happy Guy Fawkes Day

 Time to watch some V for Vendetta. You guys should do the same. 

Check out these guys. I did 'em in my big lab today and this girl asked me to stop drawing them because she thought they were creepy. WHATEVER. I think they're kinda cute.

ANYWAY. We are about to have a black dude for President. I know it doesnt really have any effect on how he'll do his job but that doesnt mean it isn't TOTALLY &*#@ING RAD.

The Test

The ichthyology test I stayed up all night studying/avoiding/stressing over turned out to be not that bad. I guess that's like most tests that seem really hard. I really need sleep. I must have drank a gallon of those coffee turds and now my brain feels like it's gonna rip itself in half at any moment. 

Coffee zombie. You know what I'm sayin'?

And I get to go BACK to fish class in two hours to do the lab! All I know is I'm not wearing the electric backpack today. If I do I'll fall over in the water and kill everything. 

Okay time for sleep. 

Video #1

I really hope I don't bomb this test tomorrow...or I guess later today.

It's my Birthday!

I did a drawing for my birthday!

I don't care if it's lame fantasy crap. It's my birthday and I'm gonna do what I WANT. And now I gotta get back to studying fish. Bloop bloop bloop.
