ive spent more time at the alkek library this semester than all 4 years of my college career put together. ive become very friendly with the newpaper databases and have learned there is an entire 12 volume encyclopedia set dealing with just the middle ages.
and i was told by a vampire to turn my headphones down because "appetite for destruction" was too loud for her to think.
a vampire you inquire?
yes. yes she was. why?
because she came over to my desk and tapped on my shoulder and said quite rudely,
"you need to turn that down because its very offensive and i cant think and its so rude."
so i pull my headphones out and say, "turn *what* down exactly?"
and she says, "i can hear your music through the headphones."
to which i finally look her in the face and realize that...
she has earplugs in.
like the kind that roadies wear at shows.
industrial-sized, economy-sized, huge earplugs.
and she could still hear my *headphones*.
unbelievable. she had to have been a vampire or something in order to hear that across the desk, and through those bright-yellow, pillow-sized plugs.
i have spent so much time there that the librarian on the night shift asks me if i want coffee.
researching howard dean, german monasteries in the 13th century, the minority population in bradford, yorkshire, england in the 1980s, and if hermann hesse agreed with jungian theory or freudianism.
i work tomorrow, thursday, friday and a double on saturday as well as sunday. oh sure, its not finals or anything, nor do i want to spend time with a certain someone. nope. not me. ill just work indefinitely for your italian restaurant, never graduate, and just date someone i work with so i can actually *see* him more than once a week.
cool.
suh-weeeet whew. a few more weeks and im done. and doing well i might add. my PR/Ad. campaign project is so awesome, i cant even talk about it.
i am in neverending awe of my kiddos and how much they make me feel better in times of uncertainty.
and karina-though i never say this word and only say it when im feeling an immense amount of disgust:
that chick is a cunt.
just thought id throw that in there.
