I have come to the realization on why people apologize so much… One of the reasons, which I have pondered upon, is because of low self-esteem. They believe that your time is more important than their own! Most people who abuse apologies do so because they feel they have inconvenienced the people they are apologizing to. Lets play a little word association: Inconvenient means Inopportune, which means inappropriate or ill-timed.

So I pose this question: Why is MY time more important than YOURS?

Is it just me, or is this a logic flaw for most people?

Oh, and you techno-geeks, go check out the Dark Tipper’s blog! It never occured to me to look for it until Slashdot posted an entry of his.

A plug-in for wordpress that allows someone to setup a photoblog, a journal of pictures, and publish it to the web. This would be a great tool for Kelley and I to share photos with ourselves and others.

A great cd from an artist that sounds like a mix between Garbage and Cibo Matto. I Com by Miss Kittin.

That paranoid feeling that someone is watching you? Perhaps even stalking you? Jeez, you paranoid psychos!

Anyway, things have been a little crazy lately, school is kicking my ass, we are trying to buy a new house, and we are doing an AD cutover at work! The madness never ends, it seems. I suppose I can always seek solace in ideas such as “Chocolate Mud Wrestling” or something along those lines ;)

I suppose one of these days I will finish my latest story, perhaps after I get my 5 page paper (which is due today) finished…

Sooooo, my wife and I were in a store the other day, and I noticed something that has been nagging at me. This guy offered to help us, and my wife told him we were already working with someone. He said he was sorry… Why the hell would someone apologize for doing their job? I noticed, lately, that more and more people apologize as an automatic reaction to some situations, why do that? It annoys me to no end, because it means they aren’t genuine, they can just apologize on command like a soap star cries on demand… Goofy if you ask me!

Umm,
Yesterday sucked, I just wanted everyone to know. I ended up working a 14 hour shift, thanks to someone not covering their job correctly. If one of you only job descriptions is to test a system, how do you fuck that up consistently? ANNOYING! Now back to our regularaly schedule public beating…
