Okay, so it's 3:00 in the effing morning, and I'm not in my bed.
I guess that isn't so unusual for me, but let's go with this.
I was over at the ACC working on my DGD paper (big surprise - LK staying up late to write a paper that's due the next day...), and I started getting so damn tired it just wasn't even worth pretending I was accomplishing anything. My plan: go back to Rohly, get up at 5 or 5:30, either finish writing in my room or prance on over to the Viz for a little piano to wake myself up first. It was about 2:30, so I could have gotten in some winks, albeit few. Some is better than none, right?
So I pack up my shit and walk back to Rohly. I put my ID to the little scanner pad thing. It beeps. I grab the doorknob. I pull. The door doesn't move. My ID definitely will not let me in Rohlman. Shit.
After standing at the door, shivering for a few minutes, I decide to walk down to the Viz. Really, I have nothing better to do, no place else to go.
I don't understand. It worked yesterday. And it's not as if the card is deactivated, as it did beep to acknowledge my card's existence. Plus, obviously it works here still! I love this... so I can use my ID to get into some random building, but not into the building in which I reside.
I know I whined before when my ID wasn't always working here at the Viz, but somehow I think that was a better situation than this. At least then I could still go home to my own bed.
So, I haven't decided what to do yet. I do have a blanket with me. I was cold, so I brought it with me to the ACC for paper-writing comfort. And I did bring some piano music, just in case I spent most the night writing the paper, and decided instead of tempting myself with sleeping through Music Theory (and the first part of the final), I could waltz down here and play for a while. I always do that, just in case, never really anticipating that I'd come down much before classtime. I guess one time I did make my way here around 6:15 or 6:30... but that wasn't 3:00!!! Well, maybe I'll sleep. Who knows. Piano first. Maybe then sleep. At this point, I'm just really not in a good paper-writing mood...
Dammitall.
