i'm like sprint and motorola no service outta your range

i am really running out of songs to take random lyrics from for my blogger headings.

i've been thinking for the past few hours, and i fully understand why i am still losing my hair. it's because i get stressed out way too easily now (maybe when i turned 20 i lost the carefreeness of being a teenager and now i'm some sort of half assed adult). here are some example of hair losing situations:

- my cable modem is not working. tech support @ cox says the signal at our house is way too weak to receive a constant signal, so what they're going to do is come by and try to boost the signal up. this all could have been avoided if we chucked out a $100 complete installation, but no i was too confident that it was all unnecessary so we waived. now we're having signal strength problems, and i'm hoping they won't charge us for making them come out here to fix the problem

- when the hell are the summer school grades coming? i just realized on problem #3 of the ece60b final that i put: low frequency = 1/2, high frequency = 0, so this is a high pass filter. how could i have been so stupid to do that?!?!?!?!? DUHHHH, i just showed it only worked at low frequency! but i put High pass! i am such an idiot

- i always had a blift attitude towards the events of 9/11, but it was way too emotional to hear the stories of flight 93, with the yelling of Let's Roll on the cockpit voice recorder, and the stories of families of mark bingham tom beamer richard guardagno and leroy homer. man that's a lot to take in.

- i'm getting fat. damn it. i exercised regularly through the summer, then stopped for 4 weeks because of summer school. then i tried getting back on the ddr machine again, and i was soooooooooo sluggish. and i went to the bench press in the backyard and passed out after 10 reps.

BUT, on the brighter side, i'm going to try to get out of the house tomorrow.
