This may come as no surprise to most of you. If you're faint of heart, you might not want to continue reading.
Generally when I fart (pass gas), I'm simply happy that farts don't come in colors, that way no one knows that I just passed gas. Nowadays I want to leave the room, because it would be impossible for someone not to notice my horrid farts, despite being a clear gas.
When I finish this gallon of milk and my variety of yogurt and cheeses I'm going to do a bit of experiment and not drink/eat animal-based milk-based products for awhile and see how things go.

A Less than Wonderful Start to the Year
On September 1st I moved into a new house with 3 new roommates full of anticipation and excitement at the coming final semester of classes. On September 2nd my new house was broken into and my laptop and camera stolen. This made me less than pleased.
Whoever did the breaking in must have been desperate (and pathetic) because they broke the glass on our door with their hand and then subsequently bled in big spots all over the house. This is my only consolation, that whoever did this is now seriously hurt. For all those in the area, look for someone with a cut up hand. We are thinkin it would be the right hand based on the location of the blood spots. The presence of the Minneapolis Crime Lab at the house got us all in a CSI mode. That was the only cool thing about the break in.
So now I don't have pictures, a camera, a laptop, notes from Ireland, or a case to put a new camera in. I also don't feel quite comfortable at night yet, despite the break-in happening in broad daylight. We've gotten motion sensor lights and PVC piping to keep the windows closed and new locks for the screen doors. But I still feel vulnerable. It seems like we're in the same position as before and someone just as desperate (and stupid) could do this all over again.
I do appreciate my friends for supporting me after all this. It truly sucks and I'm sure it will happen to others as school gets back into session.
Speaking of school. Today was the first day of classes at the University. As odd as some may think it is, I like school, I like class, and I was very disappointed that on my first day of class in my ONLY class, my professor didn't show up. As of this posting, I still don't have an email from the professor explaining himself, appologizing, or even giving me back my money for sucking. Hopefully this doesn't become habit, as I expect to leave this institution with an education.
On a good note, I found Ben and Jerry's coupons in the Minnsota Daily's Survival Guide and I fully expect to use them now. It's 92 degrees today and my house doesn't have air conditioning, so I need anything cold I can get.
