November 5th

Am I getting too direct with people? It seems like ever since I said "forget you" to this former "friend" I've become that way with people. Maybe its just Audie and Glenn rubbing off on me in an unequal mix causing an unequal balance. I dunno.

But another effect its had in conjunction with how relaxed I'm getting at work (as well as direct just because of how co-workers are to me with casual middle fingers...) is that I've been loosening up.

I also browsed globalsecurity.org since it'd been a while (it gets into there, I like it). And found a number of satellite photos of Fallujah, and one section that details every post-fall of Baghdad op there has officially been in Iraq.

We had a pretty pointless Advisory day where they gave us a second report card with the notification of how the MAP scores "only help" us, when if its anything like regular classes, it should not. I mean where is the incentive to do well on the tests then? I'm one to talk, I know, having got Advanced or Proficient just from being a smart ass on the test since they made me take it despite being a Senior.

After advisory me, Mike, and Brenn find Glenn waiting for us out front. As we get to Mike's car there is this group of ten black guys right in front of us, and Glenn finds that to be the perfect moment for a racist joke:

Glenn: "Why don't black people celebrate thanksgiving? Because KFC is closed."

They all turned around. It was terrible but hilarious...
