Not like anyone here reads this stuff.
Sorry I've not kept with the updates. I've been down and hurt and tired and so unmotivated I nearly botched this quarter of school. Royally. But I'm almost all caught up and with just one more, relativly easy, paper to write I'm gearing up for new comics, videos, and being able to write here for all of you.
Modern Mexico is the second to last test, and like always I've tried to endear myself to the professor because in all honesty, these are some of the contacts I'll need in life. It's best to make yourself useful before you need a favor. If you do it near or after, you're just sucking up. Still, I've pushed that ride as far as it'll go this semester and I'm sitting here trying to convince myself "never again." God I hope so.
Still, for Women in Politics, I cranked out probably the third best paper I've written in school so far. I hope Doc GC appreciates it, 'cause I'm actually proud of this one. Oh, it's no "Speed Racing" or "Lions and Dragons" but it's still a tight piece of research and writing. And it got me out of my funk.
Went to Best Buy to buy a new desktop, and in addition to not having a full warranty for desktops (the manufacturer does) with accidental damage coverage, they were trying to pawn off an opened box on me. There's little wonder why I think Best Buy is the seond most useless store on earth... well, first now. Circuit City died, which was a pity, really. Yes, their stores were godforsaken places where one could literally stand in the middle of the main aisle for one hour and not get help, but their website might have been geekdom nirvana.
My sister is losing her house. She's trying for a quick balance-of-payments sale on it, which even she admits won't get her far, and if goes to forclosure she's going to try for one of those hand-in-the-keys deals. She's already looking for rentals, and good luck might have found her as a friend of the family has one just down the block at a reasonable price.
I am all alone here in WebDev, the other two techs graduated. I get noobs next week, and I become the Old Man. Well, being a 36 year old student on a commuter college, I'm always the Old Man... Next week is nothing but websites and Battletech. I know which one I'm more looking forward to.
Damnit. I forgot my doughnuts at home.
I can't think of anything else I want to type out now. I'm not cooking any potatoes, I'm not watching L&O:CI, and I'm not interested in blogging about the three songs in the title of the post. So now to hit submit and let you read this.
Peace out.
