on another note, i have been listening to alot of britney spear's songs on her blackout album, and i am disgusted at myself. i am so ashamed that i voluntarily dip myself in a running river to cleanse my soul of the filth that penetrated my core. well, actually its not so much a river as a pond. and i would have dipped myself a little longer (and i don't mind the algaes, and floating half-decayed koi fish), if some old lady didn't keep shooing me away and threatening to call the cops for trespassing on private property. whatever. some people ca nbe so thoughtless and rude.
