it's an update thing
In the spirit of avoiding real learning about passive participles and passive paraphrastic and infintive and indicative (Latin, guys, it's a bitch and we haven't even hit subjunctive) I have decided to relate to you the hysterical fit I had today.
I got out of the sucking waste of time that my FYS class, and went with my parents to minco to try to fix my backspace button, which stopped working last night. As I said, "how can I write my research papers if I can't delete the stuff that sucks?!" At any rate, it worked JUST FINE when we got there. *mutter* And I'm all cranky and inflicted with my monthly cycle and they take me out to dinner (and then ice cream. because they love me.) At any rate, I'm ranting about this audience thing we had to do in FYS. Instead of focusing on our rough draft, we had to write a couple pages on WHAT IF WE HAD A DIFFERENT AUDIENCE. OMG! So I'm in full rant mode and all "And, what if pigs could fly? What the, Sheila (my prof), WHAT THEN? We'd have to build ROOFS on pig pens, that's what. Little roofs! All over! Or we'd have to clip their wings, and then PETA would be all over that, or we could pluck the feathers and have "pig stuffed pillows" and how AWKWARD would that be! yeah, what then!? I want to work that into my paper, just BECAUSE." And then I realize I was crazy. But I still feel I have a good point. What IF pigs had wings? What would PETA do? What would YOU do?
I also bought tickets to go visit Tony for a month after school gets out and before I start working. I'm laying odds I'll get bored out of my skull but it's so worth it. He sounded so pleased, too. :) I'm pleased.
