i wrote a paper about javier bardem for spanish class tonight, which was sort of depressing because the guy is nuts. he is a staunch atheist, and was saying that even though he wasn't gay he would love to get married that way just to make churches angry. i don't understand why people act like that. what is the point of hating something you say that you don't even believe in? it doesn't add up for me. i don't believe in life on mars or evolution, but i don't go around hating everyone that does. it seems like a waste of emotion that could be spent on anything else. anything. anyways. that's the end of a spanish-induced rant. the Bible is always spot on about these things, when Jesus says the world will hate us.

i missed a bus or two this morning due to poorly timing my snow removal. the thing about utah though is that professors understand that, and so things were good, and i got to talk to my old boss for a bit at harmon's. it feels good to say i have a new job, and i finally work for a company whose name i don't feel ashamed telling. i guess that is part of being in the grown up world. but also the other part is headaches and responsibilities, like making sure every strange question people have is answered. and people have a lot of questions for me.
