Finished my finals a little more than a week ago. I’m pretty sure I did good in everything except Spanish 2A. My mom’s been India for around a week now. I got a wad of cash for Christmas. I didn’t buy a bicycle because my dad told me I’m not allowed to ride anymore so I’ve been staying home ever since break started. It kind of sucks. Every time I wake up, the house is empty because my dad’s at work and my mom’s in India and my dad doesn’t get home until the night time. I painted a picture.
I’ve been watching a lot of TV, too. Mostly cable access from Houston Media Source and the channel where they show Houston municipal court 24/7.
On cable access there was a crazy zealot that was talking about how evidence DNA is in the Bible and Jesus is hanging low from the cross because he wanted to make the shape of Y to represent a Y-chromosone.
She used the term “hermaphrodite” in her lecture. I know it isn’t a poltically or scientifically correct term and itt made me think about the medical case I was researching a few months ago about the case of chimerism in a human where the child was born with one testical, a penis, a fallopian tube, and an ovary and the cells in the child’s body had both XY and XX chromosones. I was trying to decide whether “corrective” surgeries were ethical at the time for cases of intersexuality. I still haven’t decided.
I turned on the Houston muncipal court channel and see this kid:
It’s fuckin’ Josh Garber. The Jewish-Canadian kid I used to tease/talk to/joke/debate with in PE and Texas History back in middle school. Last time I saw him was at a Bar Mitzvah. He held up a pretty strong case when defending his opinion on whether law enforcement officials had the right to ask arrested criminals if they were U.S. citizens.
I taught myself how to make books.
I did the binding myself. But there’s a giant straight line on my table and paper cutting mat now due to a box cutter incident in the process.
