"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
-- Albert Einstein
There's a pretty good lead that I may have Internet running by some time, mid-week. Chris took our computer and did a ton of computer-geek-y things to it that makes Brendan giggle like a school girl. There's a bigger hard drive, which Brendan mentioned might become mine when he finally has the money and inclination to update to something special that has the word "dual" and "core" in the same arena. (I really don't know what the fuck he was talking about, though.)
School is going all right, insofar, however this is only the second week of school so I truly cannot comment. I have had some issues with one of my classes (economics) but that's mostly because I truly do not understand a word that is said in that class. As I explained it to someone recently: "My teacher talks in class, but what he says is Greek to me. So, I read the book but what the book says is like Greek to me. So, I take diligent, stupid-people-type notes on the book and in class, but even my notes are like Greek to me!" There is some serious question, from me, as to whether or not I will actually pass this class. I'm hoping but I'll only be able to get a definitive idea after we've taken our first test, which isn't until the end of the month or so. My other classes (art history, algebra and sociology) are going splendidly, though. I especially enjoy soc.
I started work this past Monday and that seems to be going all right, although I am terribly bored. For the next three weeks, I have more and more training. I really can't discuss work (due to the confidentiality contract I signed) except that it has been a boring week of training. I think that most of the people who are in my training course will pass except for one. She's a little girl who... well, I just don't think she'll go very far with the company.
I'd like to say more but the only thing I have left is that I am tired, exhausted beyond all measure and sick as a dog. I need to rest before I go to work, so...
In the mean time, everyone comment here and tell me what is going on in your life since I realized that I cannot possibly keep tabs on all journals.
P.S. ERIN I saw your post and I saw your comment about me and I'm not happy. I also received your letter two days ago. I'll try to reply but seeming as if I hate you that may not happen. /snark
