That is, after I address the BEST THING EVER. Some anonymous friend,- I mean, I'm assuming friend... even if I don't know you, you're totes one of my favorite people ever- left the best comment I've ever read on this post. When people say things like that, it is the literally the best thing ever. So thanks for that.
And back to my staff. We share way too much with each other. Moreso than a normal staff does, I feel. We have been so busy lately, that staff bonding has kind of fallen off of the bandwagon. Luckily for us, checkouts bring us together for days on end and that's the perfect environment for me to get too comfortable and over share. That is absolutely something that I have an issue with: getting too comfortable and sharing things that I probably shouldn't. Not like things that are too much and make me lose friends, but when I get comfortable I just share things that might make people think I'm a creep or whatever. Example: this blog. Another example: tonight, one of my best friends that's on my staff and also from Pakistan and I agreed that we'd really like to go to the West Stacks (a part of the library) with a man friend and not to study. Strictly hypothetical... Whatevs. And I'm not going to actually write down this next thing, but I hope this picture describes the other thing that F and I shared tonight with our staff.

(For those of you that don't get it: the teacher off of 90210.)
Two out of the last three nights, I've pulled all nighters. So I'm kind of delirious, but I'm going to give this a shot anywayyyyy. I HATE STEREOTYPES ABOUT TEXANS. I also cannot stand it when people feed those stereotypes. Let's discuss.
George W. Bush- I'll be the first to say that I love W. I want to meet him and take a picture with him. So incredibly badly. But just because I support him, doesn't mean that I feel the need to talk about things like how the south will rise again. I'm nowhere near being politically correct, but get some common sense. Seriously. Most people from the north annoy me, but I can't stand banjo playing self righteous southerners even more so.
Riding horses/rodeo/etc- I actually did have a horse and rodeo in high school. I'm not saying anything negative about it. Trust me, I'm dying to go stay a weekend with my sister solely for the fact that she attends a rodeo college and my facebook creeping has made me realize that I desperately need a weekend to be in the middle of nowhere with guys that don't wear colored shorts, Sperry's, and carry black cards. BUT by no means does everyone in Texas ride their horses to school. In fact, I've been thoroughly disappointed with the lack of legitimate rodeo men in my area.
Line Dancing- I probably feel the most passionate about this one. NO ONE SELF LEGITIMATELY LINE DANCES FOR FUNSIES!!!! I mean, its one thing to do it as a joke, but I cannot stand when people think that anyone that's from the country or anyone who rodeo line dances. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Not one legitimate rodeo contestant goes line dancing. Trust me, after four years of high school with my sister, I know that doesn't happen. Most bull riders are drunken whores that play games like the Bad to Lay Down Tour, which is ridiculously awful and hilarious, and a completely different topic. Two stepping is totally normal, dancing of any country way is normal, but LINE DANCING IS NOT. The only people you will see line dancing are the people that are severely misinformed and seriously out of touch with rodeo. I seriously cannot express my frustration with this.
I don't think I can continue. I'll elaborate more later, but the ten hours of sleep I've gotten in the last 72 hours is just not cutting it anymore. I just really wanted to post so I could point out how awesome whoever left that comment is...
Yours awkwardly,
Morgan
