New Randomnessosicty

Well, I dont particularly know that I have anything new to report, but my blog looked bare. So, I will write something, but I dont know what. My roommates are watching a movie right now, and Davis, the more "intellectual" of us, is explaining the advantages of watching a movie with the subtitles. I really don't notice much of a difference, except for being distracted by the little words at the bottom. I mean seriously, who needs to know that they are whispering inaudible phrases? If the are inaudible, why do you need to have a subtitle to tell you so? Isn't a subtitle there for people who cant hear in the first place. so everything would be inaudible. I don't know. maybe I'm just crazy.
I went to a wedding today and it was a different experience than what I expected. It was good and all, but it wasn't as exciting as one would have hoped. Perhaps it was because it wasn't my wedding, but I don't know for sure. Rumor has it that when it is your own wedding all you are thinking about is the wedding night anyhow. I suppose that the wedding did contribute to my personal life in at least one way. It made me realize that I need to stop being such a lazy piece of poo and actually start dating people. So from henceforth, I am officially available. All I need now is for an attractive girl to start reading my blog so she knows.
OK, well the randomness has come to an end. Oddly enough this blog is becoming therapeutic. It's basically a good way to get my thoughts out and then get some feedback without actually talking to anyone. I am glad Al Gore invented the internet so I could have this recourse.

Chivalry is Dead to me.

Well, I can imagine that by reading this title you expect a story. So I plan on giving you one. However, there is some background info needed. At work, there is a list to sign up on so you can get off early if it is a slow call day. (I work for UPS at a call center). Anyhow, I have kinda made a name for myself by always going home early. Call me lazy if you want, but I have to be good at something, even if it is being lazy. Anyhow, there is one person who always beats me to be first on the list, and she gets to go home before I do sometimes. I take this as a challenge to my position.

So I set my alarm one half hour earlier on Friday. because we had plans to go and see Blades of Glory. I wake up and all is going well. I made it to work 45 minutes earlier than I am scheduled to start. In the back of my head I figured that would give me plenty of time to be the first on the list. So I am walking into work, and an attractive young lady walks up behind me. I being the gentleman that I WAS, opened the door and held it for her. I then proceeded to the list so i could be sure to be the first one to leave. I looked ahead and saw that this young lady was also signing up on the list. No big deal I thought, she is a different skill, and I will still be the first one to leave. When I grasped the pen and the paper, I peered at the list, and lo and behold that vermin that I had opened the door for was my only true enemy. It was the same girl that I had been competing against to be first in line. I was ashamed at having manners. And that is the story of how Chivalry died for me.
