Man, I've got sooooooo much work to do over this weekend, but so much other stuff I'd rather do. *sigh* Do you ever wish that you could just fast forward in your life to after you've turned all your stuff in? Yea, that'd be sweeeeeeet.
*Oh yea, we were reading Locke's "Second Treatise on Government" for gov. class. He talked about how in the "natural state," people are equal but then they give up their power to join society with government. Well, I was reading it, and I remember thinking how people are so not naturally equal. It seemed reasonable to me that if you could beat up 2 people at once, you should have 2 votes in government or something like that. It seemed to make so much sense at the time. I mean, the strong obviously give up more power when joining society; shouldn't they get more back?
