So this weeks been crazy from the bars on wednesday night to the concerts on thursdasy seeing some bands that you really enjoy and being a bit dissappointed by a band that you were really looking forward to seeing because they have such great songs and realizing that they decided to get completely wasted before going on to do their set which could have been so cool if they were sober but instead was played way too hard like they are suppose to play when they take they stage as another band called common denominator who can be really cool and funny but not so much musical which is fine because reggie and the full effect is a joke band anyway and no matter what it will always be more about the humor and never about the music even though they have some really great songs includeing one of the best keyboard songs ever written, which they did play but the keyboard part was not nearly loud enough, though in some cases places that aren't loud are cool, like bars when you go and get to have actual conversations though the content mostly involves drinking it was still a good time and anyway trio still rocks though i wish they would have played more songs that i wished they would have played because they are awesome but they rocked anyway even though i wish they started their set by busting out of the coffins they had set up on stage. Oh well. Good times. See you in the future.

Today was great. I cannot even express in words how awesome today was, but I'll give you the low down so you can get a general feeling for how spectacular it really was.

I woke up this morning to the sound of my cell phone ringing. I picked up the phone to hear the words, "Hey, where are you?" This conjures the question, "What time is it?" I look at the clock and see that it is 12:30 in the afternoon. Awesome. Not only did I miss 3 classes and almost the first half hour of work, I failed to turn in my homework to a class that doesn't accept late assignments.

See, the night previous, I had stayed up quite late working on homework for this class. Not that I put it off till the night before, it was just so educational that it takes 6 to 12 hours to do. I love educational homework, and I love being up late doing it. It's quite relaxing.

Now, I didn't quite finish this homework. My plan was to go to the first physics lecture at 8:30, skip my 10 o'clock class and finish what needed to be done (I had the answers in my head, just not on paper). It sounded like a sucky plan at the time, so I'm glad it was ruined.

Anyway, back to me on the phone.

"Uh...uh...uh...crap....uh..."
"I can't hear you it's kinda loud out here. Where are you?"
"Killing myself."
"I'm gonna have to call you back. I can't hear anything."

I go over to the clock to check what happened. The time is right, the alarm is set to 7 and turned on. Oh, haha, my clock loves me so much that if I don't turn it off it realizes that I want to sleep and that I set it by accident. I love my clock. It lets me sleep in when it knows I need it.

I throw on my clothes as fast as I can since I need to be at work in half an hour and the only bus that can get me there in time leaves in 5 minutes. I love being rushed in the morning. It really wakes me up.

So I go out, catch the bus. I kinda wished i missed it, I didnt really want to be on time for work anyway. I do as much of the already late homework as I can while riding the bus. I love doing homework on the bus, because it makes my work sloppy.

I get off the bus and attempt to run to the TA office. Surprise surprise, I have no clue where it is (it just so happens it’s in a really confusing building and is a maze to get to. So its good I didn’t go, otherwise I would have been really late for work).

So I go to work at the Help Desk and WHOOOO HOOOO! I get the highest number of annoying phone calls I've ever gotten in one day! Such as:

Caller: I hardly speak any of the, uh, English. I have problem with this box in front of me. I need virus scan on.
Me: Okay, go to your desktop-
Caller: What desktop?

or:

Caller: I don't like asking questions. So I'm at this webpage.
Me: Uh....Okay.
Caller: I'm here at this webpage.
Me: I assume so since you say you are there...
Caller: Well, since you obviously aren't psychic like you should be, I guess I should tell you my problem.
Me: that would be great....
Caller: I just want to know if I'm doing this right.
Me: You probably are. (thinking: AHHHHHHHHHHHH)
Caller: Okay, well then I guess that my question is, will it be in stock?
Me: YES!!!

While working, I find that the Lecturer has office hours in the same building, right then. I go up to his office (I can take a 3 minute break) to give it to him and explain the situation, but he isn't there. Oh right. He's in Italy. Sucks to be him, he has to go to places like Mexico, Hong Kong, and Italy every few weeks. SO I get to wait till after work to make my way through the maze that contains the TA office and slide it under the door.

So now I'm off to Engineering Hall to do other homework. I get everything going and put 3 hours into a masterpiece. I decide that since I haven't eaten and I am starving, that I should get something to eat before going home. I logout, and realize, oh, maybe I should have saved the file to my student account instead of the desktop. So I log back in and....DELETED! Awesome! It sucked anyway, now I get to redo it.

Well, since it needs to be turned in tomorrow, I'm gonna have to stay and do it again. But I really should eat first, before my stomach devours my brain.

While at Subway, I realized that I needed to hurt someone/something. So I beat the crap out of the little optimist inside my head. The employees of Subway seemed pretty amused, and my jealousy of their happiness was converted to rage, due to the lack of having a good side anymore. So I beat the crap out of everyone in there. And then I beat the crap out of everyone I saw on my way back to Engineering Hall.

Once back in Engineering Hall, suddenly everyone and their mother had shown up to work on some other gay projects and there wasn't a single seat left in the place. So I had to trot back to DCL where the other lab was.

So I sat in DCL working on it, and after about 2 hours I was back to where I had left off and Corey sends me a message saying "Hey, apparently we can work together." AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Why the crap did I just spend 2 extra hours doing this crap when all I had to do was say "Hey Corey, I do know how to do it, could we just turn in yours?"

Whatever.

Life sucks.

Especially days like this.

Harumph.

What a WONDERFUL day.

Here's a retarted poem. I cant tell you waht it's about because I havent written it yet. Its gonna be stream of consciousness, so don't expect it to make much sense. Or even flow too well.

go!

Once upon a time
In a little tiny house
Came a freezing pickle person
with a little tiny mouse

He fed the little guy
some bacon and chew
And inside his little wallet
He found an old shoe

He tried on the footwear
with care and finesse
and stomped on the little mouse
who had just gotten dressed

"Oh no" said the man
with the big burly sack
"I've killed him, he's daed
how can i ever get him back?"

"What was your intent?"
Asked officer McGee.
"It wasn't on purpose
Please don't arrest me"

And after four years in jail
sitting on cold hard floors
he found a mouse
one better than before.

And when it came time,
he was up for parole
and used the little mouse
to show he'd reformed in the hole.

But the parole board knew better
and took the mouse from his hand
better stop this right now,
before you kill again.

"It's just a fricken mouse!
How much longer will i stay?"
And with that, men in white suits
came and took him away.

"I killed my best friend
he was a mouse.
Now how is that so wrong?
Can you please let me out?"

"No. you are guilty
of a much higher crime.
You squashed the head of your friend,
John Edward Grime."

"hehe, oh yeah. He was a person. He just looked so mousy i had to squash him."

"You're cured. Back to jail with you!"

Hmm...that went better than I thought. Kinda creepy though...

Well, it seems that I have not posted in quite some time, so I mayy as well post, despite having nothing of depth to say. But you guys don't care about depth, do you? No, you care about squirrels. Well, too bad, no squirrels either today. HAH!

So, when you live a mile off campus, it sucks to miss the bus. A lot. Especially when you have a test. Even more especially when the test is scheduled to start 5 minutes before the class usually starts.

It sucks when you decide, crap, i missed it. I only have a few minutes to get there, I'd better start running. Then It also sucks when you realize running with a backpack is not as easy as it seemed.

Then it sucks when you get to the building you are to take the test in and see the bus that you could have waited for pull up at the exact time you are about to enter the building, while you walk in out of breath.

But what sucks the worst is when you expected this test to be the easiest thing ever and you figure out that when time is up you have only answered 75% of the questions., no higher than a C, guaranteed.

However, it is all made up for when I get to go to work and make fun of computer illeterate people.

Me: "Can you tell me what the exact problem is?"
Client: "Let me check. It says 'no dial tone'."
Me: "Do you have two lines, sir?"
Client: "No."
Me: "Okay. Hang up the phone, then connect..."

Oh I love my job.
