I want to go swimming.
But I have no water.
And I don't float.

I'm thinking of chopping off all my hair. It's heavy and gets all in the way all the time. But every time I say I'm going to call my hair cutter man, I just don't, and then I'm happy I didn't. Yeah, been like that for the last several years though. Perhaps one day I'll follow through. Probably not.

So I was pretty upset yesterday. I got my first filling in my teeth. :( I went so long being cavity-free. It just doesn't seem right getting one now. It didn't hurt like people said it would. Just a bit of a sting when they injected that numbing stuff into my jaw. Still, I don't like the fact that I got one. Harumph, grumble, grumble, grumble!

Anyways, I've been reading several good books. Lamb, the Gosple According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal by Christopher Moore was absolutely great. I was cracking up the whole time I read it. I'd recommend it, but it is definitely not for anyone too uptight and doesn't have a sense of humor about stuff. I'd also recommend two CD's I purchased recently. The Weepies is the band and I believe it is the name of their first album. It's a very laid back sound, and has a blue whale on the cover. Who wouldn't buy whale-branded music? There was also the self titled album by Vampire Weekend. Good background driving stuff.
So that's what I've been up to for the last month or so. Reading, working, weird music, and the not-so-infrequent movie. Summer passes quickly as it all blends together. I wonder what it will be like when summer is no longer a significant period of time. When the "year" actually begins in January instead of August, and
Well, something.
It is just like expected, and doesn't make that much difference.

On a different note, at work there are all these jun bugs dead on the floor of the building where we fill the weather balloons, and they always get stuck in my shoes. I'm noticing one now. Nasty, crunchy critters. We have the building blown out every few days, but more tend to fly in there and take to dying. True, it is an open building-shed-like thing, but seriously. Eww.
