Do i have a story to tell.

Monday morning was hell. I woke up early to finish up my project for anthro. When I was heading out the door, I spilled my hot cider and soaked my jacket. Annoying, but not a big deal. When i sat down in the car, i took a sip, and managed to spill more, all over me and my computer. This time, I was soaked. And burning. So I had to go inside to change. When i went into the kitchen, I tripped over kaylee, and spilled the rest of the stuff all over the floor. Then I wiped it up real quick, and went to get changed. The first 3 pairs of pants I tried to put on didn't fit. Then, i went to put my shoes on,and realized that they too were soaked with the sticky stuff. By this time, I gave up. There was no way I was going to make it to class. I would have been over a half an hour late to a 50 min class. So... I decided to dry off the little bit of liquid.. and as I moved the computer, my usb drive bent. I thought it was completly broken. Luckly, it wasn't. However.... what I thought was a little bit of liquid actually leaked under the keyboard... and my keyboard shorted out. When I restarted the computer, it wouldn't start properly. I wanted to cry. So.. I decided fuck it, I'm not going to work. I thought my boss would be more annoyed at me than he was. He wasn't though, so that was good. He was actually sympathetic, becuase he thinks I have the cold or whatever that he had before (he heard my cough and its the nasty scratchy deep one). My teacher was also sympathetic. He said that now is not a good time to be losing ones computer. So I got sympathy and it was ok that I wasn't there on monday. I did my presentation today. And amazingly enough, when i went to try and use the other keyboard with my computer, not only did my computer work fine, but the previously non working wireless card worked fine.

In other words, everything worked out ok. And I got a new fishy and a new fishy tank (which was kinda broken. I went over my hours with my boss for the next too weeks. I'm working one 8 hour shift next wensday plus my usual 4.5 on monday. Then the week after that i have a 4.5 and 2 8 hour shifts. I didn't get my hours in for last week, but I think i'm just going to take a fall on that. Its my own fault for not remembering. I'll be working 8:30-4:30 everyday here over the summer. Not bad. I need to leave by 7:30 to get here on time, but that should be relatively ok. And I get back by 5:30, so I have a nice evening. More than I get now with classes and such. And mondays are my nicest evenings. Plus I get weekends off. And I get paid like 7.50, which is the best I'm going to do at any place. And I might be able to take a class in the second summer semester.

Its only 12:30 and I have work till three. I'm really not sure what to do with the time I have now. Not too much else to talk about now. I mean, I could babble more. I could also work on my paper for my anthro class, which i may do eventually. Only two problems with that is 1: I need a bit of a break and 2: I'm not sure I can concentrate on it here. I like using my own computer. There isn't much stuff online for me to look at right now. No updated LJs. Not really many people to be talking to online. No other work that I have on me that I can do. Nothing that's pressing to be done anyways, all I have is the work that I need done for WRT (which i'll do tommorow while Earl is.. oh yeah, he doesn't have class!). Ok, so maybe I can work on the WRT work. I think I'll put off the APG work though. I have to write a paper for next wensday, but at least right now I know I can't concentrate on it. I might work on it a little later at work. Tonight: I am going to relax.

I did something impulsive today. Didn't even realize it at first. I bought National Treasure. I kinda just saw it and took it. I definatly need to get Phantom, that came out yesterday too. Maybe I'll watch National Treasure tonight. I also picked up the first season of Pretender and the entire series of Freaks and Geeks. Lost is also on tonight, which I was introduced too last wensday with the recap episode. I really like pretender, but for some reason the first season doesn't follow the chronology very well. I'm a little annoyed. I got to see the season on tv over the summer too, and it was much better. Hopefully its jus this season that there is this problem with.

Ok, well i'm gonna go fiddle faddle online and get myself a new wallet. Laters

over and out
