For some reason its is difficult for me to wrap my head around the fact that we are now more than 50 days into this year. It doesn't seem like it at all. I guess time is just an odd concept, because its not official in any way, shape or form.
In other news I absolutely hate when people get phrases wrong. Like instead of saying a "diamond in the rough" they say a "diamond in the rust". Or just the phrase "I could care less", when people say that they don't care for something at all. That phrase implies that there is something in the fiber of your being (wait for it-big shocker) that cares! Today, while walking through campus talking on the phone, I said that I was "under the influence that I was doing something right", when I meant "under the impression". I became the person that makes me want to take a swan dive down the stairs for a moment! I've been beating myself up about it for the past couple hours. Momentary idiocy is the worst, and everyone suffers from it from time to time. You just have to deal with it for the little time that it's there and remember that you are so much better off than those who are full-time idiots.
