    It was a great idea to start smoking pot again and start watching "Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking" at the same time. Fuckin' aliens, man.

    Also, I'm home with my mom, and as such I was going to go with her to church today. I don't enjoy it, but whatever - it's only a few times a year and it makes my mom happy. But unfortunately today... flat tire on the way out of the driveway! No church!

    Wow, y'all are cranky and morose for a Sunday. Happy birthday Mya! In lieu of a gift, and since I don't have a cute puppy to post, here is a picture of my nephew. He has a 90th percentile head circumference.
    Seriously. Cheer up, folks. Or failing that, drink more.

    I have to get into one of the G+ or Skype hangouts again. Last time was a little bit foggy for me, but I remember it being awesome.

    Also, my bosses are buying me and a few of my co-workers dinner and drinks tonight. This is the first time since April (when I started working here) that I will have met one of my bosses. I'm pretty excited. Also I haven't gotten laid in a few weeks. I just went to see the girl, but apparently funerals aren't the best time to try to get down. Or maybe I don't have enough game, who knows.

    Lastly, Fuck Cancer, my Grandmother was just diagnosed with mesothelioma, and my girlfriend's Grandfather just passed away from an advanced stage Cancer. He was in his 80's, but still, it's shitty.

    Thanks Angel, the nephew is adorable. His head is just large enough to fit in all of his smarts.

    I'm not trying to be either morose and hostile. Apparently I have now hit the magic year where my body doesn't appreciate dousing it with wine, dragging it all around, and keeping it up too late for several days in a row. So, I'll just settle for being hung over and lazy?

    You can buy beer in some counties of Georgia on Sunday!


    Sweet progress that was beyond overdue in an effort to assimilate with the rest of the country.



    Next up, evolution.

    God, quit it with the bitterness, Mya. Your deep-seated anger is just leaking all over this thread.

    Ha, I remember when we weren't able to buy here in Kansas on Sundays. Being in a suburb of a city that crosses state lines, the easy solution was to simply hop in the car and head to Missouri. I am sure that the endless stream of cars with Kansas license plates that were hitting up the liquor store on the other side of State Line Road was a bit of an incentive to make some changes and keep the tax money a little closer to home.

    But they still won't teach evolution in the schools. Baby steps folks.

    You are just jealous to be outdressed by the gays and outsmarted by what looks to be about 9 months of adorable baby-ness

    It's true. I'm also pretty confident that most everybody would have been outdressed.

    Wedding reception for a gay clothing stylist = fashion olympics.

    It's true. You can't just jump on the bandwagon of a measly century and a half of hard science, all willy-nilly like.

    Even thinking about it makes my inner fashionista squeal with delight!

    OK, and while we are stereotyping here, I wonder why lesbians aren't typically as fashionable as their male counterparts. I also found out last night that I got hit on via facebook by a lesbian, and I was completely clueless. Good to know there are alternatives out there for me.

    They only taught me evolution when I went to school. But I thought they taught BOTH kinds in the States: one is agreed upon by virtually every educated expert in the field on Earth, the other involves a naked chick getting The Moves put on her by a talking snake.

    I started the day off so well...we got the bed put together last night, and sleeping on a wonderful soft mattress was amazing, then when I finally got up, I did some girl stuff, and made coffee.
    It was divine...this coffee. French pressed...brown sugar, a bit of cinnamon. Lightened with egg nog and white chocolate liqueur, flavored with Chambord, and topped with kahlua and white chocolate raspberry alcohol whipped cream. Sprinkled with cinnamon and brown sugar. Delicious.

    Then...


    I got called into work.

    Grrrr.


    In other news...Happy Sunday.

    Interesting. I went to religious schools my entire gradeschool career. Hard sciences were pretty advanced in those places, but I cannot remember spending a lot of time on evolution. Species evolved, people didn't. That was the party line. I had a 1.5 year respite to go to public school. Holy shit they were so woefully behind the private school curriculum. The public school flat out did not mention evolution or anything beyond the most basic principles in 9th and 10th grade science (Environmental and Biology). Pretty fucking ironic.

    Yup, I went to private Catholic schools from K-12th and there was quite an emphasis on math and science. Evolution was taught, but it wasn't dwelled on obsessively. A lot of the bio major classes I took spent more time on evolutionary concepts because they were necessary to the material. A 5th grader isn't learning about the taxonomy and evolution of terrestrial vertebrates.

    Creationism was never taught or even mentioned. In fact, I don't think I had even heard of the concept until college (it wasn't a taught concept, it was a ridiculed one).

    Wait. Do foreigners actually believe this?

    The whole "Evolution and Creative Design Controversy", while not fake, is centered around a very small minority of schools. In 99 out of 100 schools (including every school I attended*), there was nary a word for that nonsense.



    *These include a Catholic junior high, Catholic high school, and Catholic university (I'm agnostic/atheist myself). But, while Christian, Catholics don't really do that whole schtick. The Church has been down with evolution for like, 80 years now.

    I also went to a Catholic high school and evolution was thoroughly taught there as well.

    Catholics aren't big on Creationism.
