My roomate moved out yesterday, so I have the apartment to myself again, which is nice. We didn't really talk so the companionship really won't be missed. A good representation of our relationship is a story about when he first moved in. I had introduced myself to him when he first moved in, but after that we really didn't say much to each other.

Then a couple of weeks into the semester I had gotten a note from the postal service on the door saying that they tried to deliver a package and it had my first initial and last name on it. I came inside and my roommate was there. He asked me if I had seen the package slip. I said I had. He then asked me what my name was. I assumed he was looking for me to say how to pronounce my my last name because that is what was writen on the package slip and it is an oddly spelled polish name complete with the "cz" combination. So I replied, "It's (last name)" He said, "Your name is (last name)? People call you (last name)?" I said, "No, my name is Jesse (last name). People call me Jesse." He responded, "Oh, okay, I don't know if we ever introduced ourselves."

Who lives with someone for two weeks and has no idea what their roommate's name is? His name is Anthony and yes, I did know it when he asked me what my name is. So, he is gone and I have no contact information for him so I hope he wasn't planning on getting anything important. I also hope that I won't ever have to list all the people I have lived with and their contact information cause I would have no idea how to get in touch with him.

Well, that is all. Hope everyone has a good memorial day.

I was listening to NPR Thursday, and I heard president bush talking about the proposed pipeline to supply Iranian gas to India and I couldn't believe the phraseology our president used:

"Our beef with Iran is not the pipeline, our beef with Iran is in fact they want to develop a nuclear weapon and I believe a nuclear weapon in the hands of the Iranians will be very dangerous for all of us," said Mr Bush.

Yes, you heard correctly, the President used the term "beef" to describe our disagreements with Iran. That is pretty freakin awesome. I am just surprised I haven't seen any shows or blogs pick up on it.

Also, on to other odd political items. There is a bathroom stall in my school with a bunch of political graffiti in it. It has everything from quick "Bush sucks" to long diatribes about socialism (My school is full of poli sci, public administration, international relations, economics, etc majors).

Someone saw all this political graffiti and responded "What happened to graffiti about bjs in bathroom stalls?"

To which the response written: "The market was flooded with bjs"

That is so nerdy and so hilarious.

I will now apoligize to nonnerds who read through my entire entry and did not find those amusing. Hope all is well with everyone. Stressful here. 5 weeks to graduation. Bye
