A Response to Alejandro's Most Recent Post

After reading his recent entry "$$$," my first reaction was--F YOU. It is only during times like this I regret my decision to join science research. Why am I working seven hours a day, five days a week for two months as a freakin' volunteer when I could have been making thousands? I NEED MONEY TO TRAVEL! On the other hand, I can totally imagine Alejandro, this freakin' druggie, sitting in his office doing absolutely nothing productive and thinking about nothing but his beloved weeds. And he's getting paid!--to buy even more of his beloved weeds and the--"accessories." Someone apparently really wise wrote: "the ugly and the stupid gets the best of it in the world." Well, I shouldn't be so sarcastic about that actually; I'd be buying stuffs I love also with my money, so far only hypothetically speaking. As of now, I can handle my anger, or jealousy, because I know one day, when it really matters, I'll be earning much more than Alejandro--but wow, if the exact opposite happens...I don't know what I'll do. Strangle him, maybe. No, actually, rob him.
