Today was my last day of work, and while it payed well and was pretty easy, I won't miss it. I just couldn't stand staying in an office all day doing clerical work for the rest of my life. And I hate phones. Anywho, I go back up to UF very very early Sunday morning to start my second year, and I cant' wait. These last few days are gonna be really hectic though, as I have yet to pack anything (and my computer is strewn out all across my desk from messing with that freakin hard drive!) and trying to say goodbye to all my Tampa friends since I won't be seeing them for quite a while. I've really enjoyed this summer, and as much as I love college, I will be a little sad to see the summer go.

Because one of my friends said all I talk about is computers on my website, I'm going to prove him wrong and talk about tomatoes! Yes, the little red frugitable that's oh so tasty on sandwhiches and in sauces. It's so red! It's so round! It's so... so... tomatoey!

It turns out there's a "secret" history of the diamond and how it was corporate advertising made it synonymous with love. All I can say is that it was an incredibly succesful advertising campaign. The associated Slashdot article is also very interesting, some of the comments are spot on. Sorta scary to think that I'm getting to the age where people start to get married. Still have a few more years, but it's coming up. Luckly for me I've had like 5 girls tell me they'd marry me, so I just plan on skipping the whole dating thing and going straight to marriage. Works for me :)
