So on Tuesday I left work to go to school and had to drive around a giant tumbleweed. It was sitting in the right-hand left turn lane, being all big and tumbleweedy, not blowing around like they do in the movies and Western Nebraska.
It was about five feet tall, so I figured I probably shouldn't drive my car into it. The furniture truck behind me evidently decided that same thing, as he swerved too. I took a picture (as I was stopped next to it for a few minutes, gazing into it's brambles), but Mojo has chewed through my digital camera upload cord thing, so for now
just imagine something about this size at a very busy intersection:
My real picture is better, but whatever.

I also just got my Senior Check, which was weird. I don't see why you need to do that. But anyways, I only have one class left to finish my major. That class is Shakespeare. I don't particularly want to take Shakespeare, as I'm not a fan, but now I'm going to have to spend extra effort trying to get into this class, which is only taught by one teacher once a semester and is already full for next year.
I'm also not decided on whether I really want to graduate this Spring. It'd be nice to not have to go to school (or pay for it) but at the same time, I don't know what I want to do with myself yet, so leaving now just means that if I end up needing some other degree, I'll have to re-enroll somewhere and start again. Whereas I could just stay in school and continue to rack up the majors and minors.
Right now I'm looking into maybe doubling my major before I leave, with some sort of science (probably Chemistry) and maybe a minor in computer science. Both of which are a far cry from what I'm about to have finished (English degree with minors in Philosophy and Religion), but hey, diversity is supposed to be good and all that. Plus, as Crystal said earlier, it'd be nice to be studying something that led to a more concrete career field.

Yesterday at work we got a call about a Biscuitwala wedding in St Louis. Did you take in anything of that sentence passed the "Biscuitwala"?
