This is not going to work. Like, at all.

Did I mention the ice storm?

So it's offical: out of all the vocabulary items we studied this semester in Chinese, I can accurately write the characters for almost exactly 50%.

I haven't even looked at last semester's flash cards.

Also, I'm not sure I can review my anthropology notes without screaming.

Let's have a poll, kids.

Poll Burning Questions!

ETA: And while I'm being bitchy, I'd like to point something out to the news media: people get voted off American Idol every week. That's kind of the structure of the show. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REPORT ON IT EVERY WEEK AS IF YOU ARE SURPRISED. Unless the contestant goes on a shooting rampage after getting voting off and ( Read more... )

Let's make a Grand List of Annoyance. Stuff that doesn't actually make you want to go full-tilt STABBITY KILL, but nevertheless bugs yuo and puts a little bit of tarnish on your day. I'll start ( Read more... )

I am a dork. I meant to finish some assigned reading today but left my textbook at home. I also meant to chip in for Kathy's secretary day present and then check out a laptop to work on during my morning break; when I arrived at work for the staff meeting, I discovered I'd left without my wallet, too. ::grumblegrumblegrumble::

Okay, Daylight Savings Time, I will give you this: walking home with the sun up and then cooking dinner and the sun still being up is nice. And I'm not as sleep deprived as the Bosslady. But you're still on my list. ::pokes::

In other news, the Cardinals won their season opener against the Phillies by the score of 13-5. Oh, yes, it's that time ( Read more... )

I slept like SHIT last night. Went to bed at midnight and woke up around 5 am, because this apartment was waaaay too hot for me--I'd just gotten acclimated to my parents' house. And then I had intermittant dreams involve slash, fat women, a microwave as the object of theological discussion with my roommate's inexplicably white boyfriend, and a ( Read more... )

Okay. There is NO LOVE for my alarm clock right now, because I am too stupid to handle the two-different-alarms business. I keep setting the one for 6 (Thursday staff meeting) when I mean to set the one for 7 (rest of the week) and then BAH. Waking up an hour too early is the suck. Especially when the right alarm goes off just as you're about to ( Read more... )

The Chicago Sun-Times editorial posted here has got me indignant, and I'm not even a Sox fan.

As a public notice, I would like to point out that history has proven time again that no good can come of:

1. land wars in Asia
2. pissing off the Irish.
