Ok so I actually have something to type today. It all started a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, or in my basement yesterday, which ever one fits. So I was talking to, lets say, Bob. (the names have been changed to protect the innocent). So Bob and I were talking and it was getting late. Bob IM'd me and the following discussion ensued:

Bob: well i'm gonna get going, it's getting late
Me: alrght, g'night
Bob: it was nice talking to you again
( I close the screen thinking the conversation is over)
B: goodnight
M: later
B: God bless
M: ditto
(Close screen)
B: Thanks
M: No prob
B: Bye
(At this point I decided that the conversation was over and for about 3 minutes I went about my business thinking that she, Bob, would be going to bed seeing as she said she was tired, but no, the conversation continued.)
B: I'll talk to you on thursday
M: ok
B: have a good day tomorrow
M: are you actually tired?
B: yeah, why?
M: No reason
B: ok bye

At this point I was flabbergasted, that's right flabbergasted at the fact that this "goodbye" took more than six exchanges to get done with. Now I come to the point of my post. We need to make a rule of how many exchanges we should have at the end of a conversation on instant messeger. I mean, it's just unnatural to say good bye over and over again. I got the point the first time. I'm not upset at Bob, on no, she is just a victim of ignorance of how to say goodbye online. But now the answer to our problems is here. I will explain. We must limit our goodbyes to three each. Then we'll all know when the conversation is ended. Here is an example of the "Luke Method" as it shall now be known.

B: Well, it's getting late, I should be going
M: okay you have a good night
B: Alright I'll talk to you tomorrow
M: okay
B: goodnite
M: night

The end. You see the Luke Method is an obvious improvement to the confusion and embarrasment of not knowing when or how it was ok to stop talking. Ah, you see this is how the mind of a genius works. Oh wait, no it's not. But it resembles a genius mind seeing as this is a genius method.

Next on the list is guest o' the month. I have made an executive decision seeing as I am the administrator of this site. Each month we will give the opporitunity for a guest to come on the site and post what he/she would like to post. We will also be adding comments shortly as soon as I can figure out how to do it. So in a couple of years we should be ok. Well, the blogging revolution is upon us. Dan now has a blog that I will now shamelessly promote. Go there. If I knew what it was then I'd promote the actual blog site but alas, I do not. Kudos to Alie for reminding us what the true meaning of Christmas actually is. I hope I see a bunch of you tonight. Later!

So, I think that Alie has dominated this blog for far longer than is necessary. And for all my fans that came looking for me and were disapointed, I truly am very sorry. Anywho, just so you know, this will be taking place of my journal off my sub-profile now. So come here instead. Don't go to my subprofile. It will be boring. Come here. Not there. Here. Ok, I think I made my point quite clear.

So, I got off of work about an hour ago, which is awesome seeing as I would still be at work if this were before Christmas. It's like 11:55 in the pm if it doesn't say. Another good thing happened at work, there is no more Christmas music! Oh happy day! The amazingness of the no-Christmas music season has just begun! A sad thing is that now, "potty-breaks" count for your entire 15 minute break. So you better not have to go pee after you already took your break, cause if you do then you'll just have to hold it. Or pee your pants. In other news, it's almost new years eve. Which means that it is almost 2004. Which means that another year has gone by. Which means that we will be celebrating the entrance of another year in the history of humanity. Which means WE WILL BE ONE STEP CLOSER TO ARMAGEDON! So here is the Kohl's story of the day and then I'll be done with it. So I'm looking at a rack that has clothes to put a way on it. and I spot a Gap zip up sweater. I'm thinking, stupid shoppers putting Gap stuff on our racks. Then I look at it. It has been tagged, priced and marked down by our wonderful Kohl's customer service. This means that a customer bought or recieved as a gift this item from the Gap and then returned it and got the money, that was never paid to Kohl's, back for the sweater. The stupidity of people is beyond me. I shall never understand how this happened.
So Christmas was good. I had a good time. That's about it. I figure no one really cares what I got, so why bother. So I have another week until I go to back to school. Which is bitter-sweet. I really don't want to do homework. But I really do want to play counterstrike. Oh the humanity!!! And by the by, I'll try to get a comments feature up for those who like to talk. I feel that feedback is the only way I'll know... I don't know where I'm going with this. I'm really tired folks. That's all you get. Vultures.

So now I have a blog spot and I am in control of all and all will be laid to burnination! Well, actually I'm just a copy-cat who tries really hard to be cool :(. But hey it works! Anywho, I will post later when I have another thing to say so basically, I'm boring but that's ok. No one will probably read this for a couple days or so. As an added bonus you get the complete thoughts of Alie so she can tell us of her adventures as well. We might have some specials guests evenutally but you will have to stay tuned! Okey dokey, I am out. Later!
