Nazi with a Side of Chicken

So I’m tired of people thinking that evolutionists are in favor of Social Darwinism. It’s definitely insulting to me. I mean, honestly, the theory of evolution has nothing to do with Social Darwinism except the name. I recently heard evolution described as the survival of the fit enough, and I think that’s an absolutely brilliant way to put it, because it’s so true.

I don’t really want to go to work today. I work at a craft store now, and it’s really not bad work, but I had three days in a row off, and that makes going back hard. Especially now that I have school going on, too. I don’t know if I’m going to continue to work while I have school, but I think I will. It hasn’t been bad so far, but one we get down to crunch time, I might feel differently. I’d just feel bad bailing on the store during the holiday rush, but that’s the way it might have to go down.

So our blender is totally broken, and it sucks. I was trying to make myself a coffee drink this morning, and all I managed to do was get the counters all sticky with coffee-dulce-de-leche scented muck. I really did almost cry. I feel bad for my dad, who was trying to enjoy his (hot, blender-free) coffee, and got caught in the verbal cross-fire between me and the blender. Not really fair for anyone.

I’ve had the same cold for about ten days now, and I’m getting sick of it. Seriously, this is unnecessary. I don’t need the lingering cough or drippy nose. I just don’t. I’m so over it.
I’m not over orange chicken, though. Man, I swear, that stuff is slightly spicy crack. It makes my mouth feel slightly funny when I eat it, but I think that’s just part of the appeal. Also, fried rice. Whoever came up with that idea gets my kudos.

My butt hurts right now. I’m sitting in the lobby thing of a lecture hall on campus, waiting for some unknown class to be over and leave so I can go sit and learn all about the history of the 20th century. Nazis for the lose, man. I know how this goes down. Some Franz guy gets assassinated and WWI is like pachoo and then all get’s quiet on the western front and a goose dies, and then we have a great depression and the southwest all blows away and then the Nazis put all the Jews, gays and gypsies (sounds like my kind of party) in camps (no longer a party) and make the rest of the world mad by trying to take it over, and then they lose because we’re too awesome, and something about Japan and bombs. Actually, that’s about where my timeline of the 20th century ends. I mean, until I’m born, then it gets interesting again. In all seriousness though, I really don’t know enough about the later half of the 1900s, because my history classes never got up that high before, and I’m a lazy weenie who doesn’t really care.

In other news, I think I want to take some archeology/paleontology classes in the future. I should look into that. I’m getting all re-interested in dinosaurs again. Darn you, National Geographic. Darn you!
