-To everyone who hasn't gotten this before, i looked you up on stalkernet, i hope thats ok. dont flip your flapjack or anything. and if you dont want another one like this, let me know and you wont ever get another one. please still be my friend though, i dont want one lousy email to destroy our relationship.


-Jase, complete list coming later today i hope. i can't guarantee anything, but i'll do what i can.
-Brinkerhoff, get Jeff Ward's bag if you cant buy one soon, and we can go chill up on top of that science building. we only have three weeks left and i probably won't want to do it during finals and i wont be around next weekend.
-Christina, did you say you are coming this week for serious or for joking? too bad its not the 21st, we could have done some really cool stuff!


-Hey, guess what! i saw the last 45 minutes of sandlot last night. pretty cool, eh?

Today is Bunsen Burner Day and also National Clam on the Half Shell Day. Its too bad i dont have either of those, i would have some killin' awesome fun. And tomorrow is National Tatting Day, and of course April Fool's Day. and if you eat in the Canc then its also yaD sdrawkcaB. so yah. i promise i wont lie about tomorrow's birthdays or anything, thats what i would normally do on april fools day, but im trying to quit lying, its a nasty habit.

-Happy Birthday to:
Rene Descartes, 1596
Franz Joseph Haydn, 1732
Robert Wilhelm Eberhard von Bunsen, 1811 (yes, he is the famed inventor of the BUNSEN BURNER!!!)

Arthur Griffith, 1872
Leo Buscaglia, 1924 (better known as Dr. Hug)
Sydney Chaplin,1926
Gordie Howe, 1928
Ewan McGregor, 1971

who's the coolest person in the birthday list? im split between Rene Descarte and Haydn and Gordie Howe. but then again Ewan McGregor was the only decent actor in star wars episodes I and II. those were mildly disappointing. they kind of made me lose all respect for star wars. way to go, lucas...

-Happy Deathday to:
John Donne, 1631 (awesome guy, one of my heroes)
Franz Joseph Haydn, 1809

-So yah, some cool birthdays today. i dont have any homework tonight, somebody tell me something to do. i want to spend some time with you today if thats possible, let me know. obviously that doesnt apply to all of you, but you're the judge, you know who you are. so um, i think im going to go sit outside and burn to a crisp because i dont have any sunscreen or aloe, but i love the sun so much. it is benevolent and some other word i forgot. a good day to you.

And until next time i see you, check out www.badgerbadgerbadger.com definitely worth a good half minute at least. but don't blame me, i didn't make it. oh and make sure you get the sound too, thats important.

Today is going to rock, i can feel it

Here's a little email i like to call "email".

if you are recieving this email and you don't ever want another one like it, just tell me and you wont get another one. or if you want this at a different email, let me know that too.

Today is Doctor's Day, I Am in Control Day, and Take a Walk in the Park Day. and i am indeed going to celebrate all three of those by: calling a doctor, being in control, and taking a walk in the park. woohoo for me. Tomorrow is Bunsen Burner Day (HEE HEE HEE!!!!!) and National Clam on the Half Shell Day. Some of you actually know what that is and/or how to make it. but i am from the landlocked piece of dirt known as "idaho" and so i have never had clams except from a can, which i hear is heresy (harrisy?) so if you have experience with clams, come and show me a clam on a half shell, and i will try to endure seafood yet again. thats another problem with being from idaho, i havent developed a taste for fishy things. but i can always try again.

ooh! and starting thursday is...... LIBRARY WEEK!! i am so going to spend all my time on the fifth floor of our wonderful (except when you actually need something) byu library! and starting that same day is Read a Road Map Day. i dont know about all of you, but i dont have a car, or anywhere to go (except the Malt Shoppe, which is only about 7 minutes walk from my room, and i cant go there because i just spent $11 there last night). and we've got some cool birthday stuff coming up in the beginning of april too, but i havent done an extensive search yet, just a sneak peek. meaning personal relations.
