nueva computadora

yeah.  just read about how macintosh is now the largest company in the world or whatever, and how it's exploiting workers in china and stuff.  and, you know, steve jobs is a scumbag burning in the fires of hell etc.

but here i am on the macbook air.  chillin.  a sweet machine- all 11 inches of it.

got it set up to run what i need from it in about half a day- which is nice.  maybe i'm learning after all.

am now being antisocial in front of my family on christmas eve by playing with it.

what kind of a person am i anyways?

the pallas cat

last night i dealt with the weight of the world by getting drunk and looking up pictures of different cat species on wikipedia.  i have decided that the silliest is the pallas cat.  i don't have the motivation to link, just fucking look it up.  

the girl was writing a paper for grad school due at midnight.  this was at around 10.30 that i got seriously into this pursuit, and insisted that she look at pictures of caracals etc.  i got a pretty good reaction out of her for most of them.  i don't know what the paper looks like.  i don't think she was too invested in it.  

i technically have some sort of examination tomorrow.  i've decided that it's too late for me to really do much in the way of studying, and thus that i had best prepare my mind by listening to the smithsonian collection of appalachian folk music and venting about various things on my readerless blog.  

i want to feel my savior near
i want to die a-shouting
i want to live a christian year
till soul and body's parting

alternately:

to insist on facing the salt 
and it stings
and certainly, this changes things

compare and contrast.  discuss amongst yourselves.  look at cat pictures.
