Kicking off the spring semester, I fought my way through campus this morning to attend "The Enlightenment," a study of 18th century Europe. After the traditional syllabus run through, we began looking at the who, when, where and why of the Enlightenment period. As you would imagine, I was unfocused on the class discussions but immediately tuned in to the females of the class. Unfortunately for me, there weren't any cute ones! I suddenly realized, it's going to be a long semester.

Now that I'm no longer employed, I'll be spending much of my time at coffee shops reading Voltaire, Kant, Rousseau, etc. Should I expect changes in my ideas and values? Will I become a different person over the next few months? Of course I will!! No work and barely any responsibilities will induce my gambling habbits. Hell, I'm getting the itch just thinking about Blackhawk at this instant. What would Volaire do? Go all in? HA!

Aside from gambling, daytime TV is not on my top 10 list. Xbox is just not as fun after you've spent a few hours on 360. And there are very few movies that are at Blockbuster that I'm eager to rent. That leaves me with MySpace and blog. WOW ... achtung baby!!!!
