For the first time ever, I took an unforced week off from work. Typically, the only time I get off is due to campus being closed for holiday. After six straight years it was time to take a personal week. I took the time to get some things done around my apartment and catch up on some sleep. I feel quite refreshed this week. The interesting part of the vacation is that it feels surreal. It is like starting everything at school and work as new again. Today didn't even really seem like the first day of Fall classes even though campus was packed. It is just very weird; I don't know how to describe it.

While on my vacation, I decided to burn a new CD to listen to in my truck. I was going to burn a copy of Meatloaf's Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell but I was unable to find my original. Actually, I stopped looking for it when I came across my copy of the Butthole Surfers's Independent Worm Saloon. I purchased this album because I like the first track, Who Was In My Room Last Night?. Another track on the CD quickly became my favorite on the album, though. The track is number five on the CD and is titled Goofy's Concern. Before I share the lyrics with you I should tell you a couple of things about this band: 1) they rock and 2) they are as far from serious as any band can be. So, here are the lyrics for Goofy's Concern:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I don't give a fuck about the FBI
I don't give a fuck about the CIA
I don't give a fuck about LSD
I don't give a fuck about anything
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I don't care what you want me to say
I don't give a fuck about it anyway
I don't give a fuck about the whole damn thing
I don't give a fuck about every last thing
I don't care who you want me to be
I don't care what you want me to see
I could give a fuck about who I am
I could give a shit about me and them
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I don't give a fuck about you mommy and dad
I don't give a fuck about the things you had
I don't give a fuck about the way you do
All I ever fuckin' think about it you
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
