A point of note to some people.
If you leave a comment on my blog and I have no idea who you are, please leave me some way of replying to your comment. That way, I can thank you for your comment and see who is viewing my page. If you don't leave me a way to contact you, well, that sucks for me, I guess.
Interesting.
I like this quote.
Communism doesn't work because people like to own stuff.
- Frank Zappa

A few things.
I know my post from Sunday only has a blank line in it. It's got a video of Evanescence playing in it and I have to figure out how to get it from my phone to my computer.
Anyway, Sarah and I were driving around the lake today and we pulled into a previously flooded park area to look at the damage and as we were driving around it, she saw a snake with a fish. We turned around and watched the snake (a cottonmouth) try to pull the fish into the foliage surrounding the road. The cottonmouth pulled it about halfway and then gave up. It was really awesome watching nature work. The fish weighed more than the snake, but it was dead, so the snake was having to pull really hard, coiling it's body up and then pulling backwards. I think it got scared of us because it dropped the fish and went back into the grass. The first thing we did when we got home was look up snakes of Texas and it was definitely a young cottonmouth, with a dark pattern and kind of greenish and a big white mouth. This is the link to the page we looked at and it definitely looked like the snake. Also, you could tell where the water from the flooding had been up to, cause the ground was a pale white and green color and there was plenty of moss everywhere.
Job situation is getting kind of desperate. I interviewed for an IT place in Dallas on Tuesday and I'm still waiting to hear back. Supposedly they really liked me but they want to interview others so they get an idea of what they're looking for, or something like that. My old employer called me and I basically told him to go screw.
