I worry about my future career, and get a cold splash.2:20 a.m. - 2002-06-09
The Mysterious Elephant
Well, I've been checking on potential careers today. I've been planning on going into biology for a while, but the fact remains that I want to go into work directly with animals (like a zookeeper), and the pay sucks and the job competition is awful. I keep hoping to find a career that will make me as happy with better pay, but silly me!-- jobs that are fulfilling never pay well. Its so depressing. Anyway, I took another job aptitude quiz, and I'm gonna post the website here, since I don't want to put it in favorites (my whole family uses this computer, and I don't really want them reading all the stuff. Its not that I don't want them to know, its just, ya know, I don't want them worrying about my future, I do plenty of that. Plus, then they'll start trying to tell me what I should go into, and I have enough trouble just listening to my own ideas.) So here it is:If anyone ever actually reads my crap, they can go there too. I don't mind if people I don't know looks at my most intimate personality traits and values, just not the people I know!
Anyway, it occured to me that I'm too serious in this. It's just a diary, not deep, probing questions about my most intimate thoughts and beliefs on stuff (i.e. my last entry) so, I thought I'd take a trip to the
LIGHTER SIDE! (See, now if I knew any html stuff, which I don't, cause I'm a loser, I could make this really cool. Oh well)
So today, I took a much needed shower. I felt all sweaty and funky. Anyway, for some reason my mother had adjusted the shower head so it sprayed at the back of the tub, instead of, well, the area around the shower head. Normally, I turn on the water, wait for the water to warm up, turn on the shower head, and take a swift step back to avoid the cold water that comes spraying out of it at first. Instead of avoiding it, though, I got a freezing splash. I almost screamed. This leads me to wonder: why on earth would you adjust the shower head to spray on the back half of the tub? Some of my working theories:
-She was thinking about washing an elephants ass. But then she realized that there was no way an elephant would fit in our teensy bathroom, let alone the tub, and just forgot the reajust the shower head.
-She was trying to wash a different part of her body, other than her head. (yuck, this line of thinking is going no further)
-She wanted to stand under the shower head, and watch a rainbow in the water arcing over her head. (Hmmm, I'm going to have to check that one out. That would be pretty cool, if it worked)
-She was trying to rinse off the back wall of the shower-- which knowing my mother, is probably true. I can see it now: "oh my, this wall hasn't been cleaned in forever!" (perhaps because the back wall wouldn't need to be!) "well, there is already a scrub brush in the bathroom, I'll just do it now, since I won't be able to sleep knowing that the stupid wall is dirty!" "or better yet, I'll make Chloe do it!"*
*note: this may be slightly unrealistic paranoid thinking on the part of the undersigned. Other than the first thought.

Anyway, and then, while I was in the shower, I thought of a joke that I heard a while ago. Here it is, I think its really great!
How many feminists does it take to change a lightbulb?
Answer below, I think I'm going to end the entry with this great joke!
I'll see ya all! (as if anyone reads this)
Are you ready?
One, and thats not funny.
LOL! Okay, maybe its more funny in person. Not that I dislike feminists, I think that they have done alot for us, and there is some work left to be done for female equality blah blah blah... but some of them have real chips on their shoulders. Anyway
:o)
