   =o!

What exactly do I have to post about? Not exactly a lot.

Last night, I had a bad stomach ache. I think it was an odd way of my body telling me I'm dehydrated again, as well as indigestion and/or general junk food pains. (Yes, I get stomach pains from too much junk food.)

My dad is on a business trip to Indiana for about 4 days, give or take a half a day, as memory fails to serve me right. My mom bought a bunch of junk food because she misses him, and we all know she shouldn't have, but what am I supposed to do? Tell my mom that we won't let her eat it? She does have authority over me, and not vice-versa. So we'll hope this won't be too bad, and then as soon as my dad gets back home, we're supposed to go on a "quick-plan" diet thing again, so we'll actually be eating healthy again! Yay! I rather like eating the healthier foods. They make me feel better and I don't end up with stomach aches from healthy food. :)

In English class, we're writing persuasive essays/ The Classical Argument, and then later we are turning them into speeches and presenting them. I hate that last part, but I can live. The topic I chose was DRM. As some of us know, Apple/iTunes/iPod have fallen under some heat in Europe as being uncompetitive, as Microsoft has with IE and WMP. Apple is being forced to open their DRM for an inter-operable digital music marketplace, and Jobs is suggesting that we just abolish DRM systems completely. It's interesting, and even my English teacher is interested in reading my paper, so I have to make it good... Hopefully I can smoothly B.S. my way through 2 of the 3 pages required... Otherwise I may not be able to meet the length requirement, but she says quality, not quantity, so if it's really good and only 2 pages, she'll be fine with it. So yeah, that's English class.

For those interested in my story, I have it typed to what I have written. The site is going to become a new project in the /projects/ directory of my website. It's just going to be a general content management system type thing. I still haven't written a single piece of code, but I have though a great deal into the structure. Each item (node) will either be a sibling or child of another, save the root nodes (story titles), which are siblings of each other. Basically, a simple hierarchy. All of this content is managed in a single table in a database, so it's marginally lightweight from my ideas in my head. It'll be pretty cool when I'm finished, trust me. :)

Well, it's after midnight now, so I should be off to bed, unfortunately. I'll be writing tomorrow, so I'll probably have to type a lot on Wednesday night...

I can't wait to quit my paper route... I hate it.

EDIT: I have begun an arrangement of "Moonlight Shadow." The vocal track, anyways... XD
