Look to the Cookie
Well, so far this week has left me totally exhausted. I went to bed at 3:30 last night. I wish there was a way that the human body wouldn't need sleep. Imagine what we would be able to do if we didn't have that pesky thing called sleep. I finally finished the sample chapter today and sent it off to the editor. I am not sure how long it'll take to find out if they like it, but hopefully not that long. Tonight at 8 I have another show. This week has been littered with shows and moonlighting work so much that I will probably crash after the show, which brings me to the topic at hand - Girl Scout cookies. I am on my 10th year of protesting Girl-Scout cookies and am going strong. I refuse to ever buy another box of Girl Scout cookies unless they meet my demands. It all started when I was a kid and my sister would come home with girl-scout cookies to sell. I was at first excited because I got to eat some cookies, but then reality set in. They had NO CHOCOLATE CHIP. I couldn't believe it. I always thought she was getting the wrong batch or something. Every year I would wait for the new list of cookies hoping beyond all hope that they would have chocolate chip, but it never happened. Later on in life I realize why. If they did then that would be all they sold, and the makers of all of those other crappy cookies would go out of business. It was all a big political ploy to keep overvalued cookies on the market. I now refuse to buy any cookies unless they are chocolate chip. VIVA LA CHOCOLATE CHIP!
Thought of the Day
"The key to eating a black and white cookie, Elaine, is you want to get some black and some white in each bite. Nothing mixes better than vanilla and chocolate. And yet, still, somehow racial harmony eludes us. If people would only look to the cookie. All our problems would be solved."

I mulled over the weekend on how best to respond to your post from last Wednesday, and then I realized you were thoughtless when you wrote it, so I shouldn't give it that much thought, either. Or maybe you were trying to be hurtful to me and the entire teaching profession (yes, a profession filled with professionals), and not just ignorant. Either way, after coming up with a wide variety of names to describe you, any of which I would love to post, I decided against it. If I have a problem with someone, I will talk to him about it, instead of bashing him on the Internet, regardless of the fact that he treated me in that manner and then acted completely normal later that night.
There are two courses of action you can take from here:
1) You can decide to never call again, and I will take that as the fact that you are sorry about what you said, but you feel too stupid to call.
2) You can call and give an elaborate apology, and I will consider altering my current opinion of you as being a two-faced, pompous ass and an immature coward.
