How come every new scientific breakthrough has to have homeland securtiy applications? (Refering to Par's post on mini nuclear fusion) If I invent a new way to make frictionless bearings without using any lubricant will this have homeland security applications as well?

On another note, so Tay this means you are playing at 1:00 PM then? I might not be able to make it... I'll try though.

Alison, you should maybe try calling Beck (although I don't know if his phone is hooked up), or we can get him to call you tonight (assuming I see him tonight at Jess'). He's internet-free until Saturday (the horror!!)

Tay, I was in blackbyrd last friday after I got my hair cut and I am almost positive that frances the mute was already there on vynl. not 100% sure, but pretty damn close.

why oh why do I get butterflies in my stomach over this still?
I e-mailed my prof my resume yesterday, and he responded (because I said the whole "I'm still interested, don't forget about me..." line) with "we're counting on you starting with us next spring" um, woo hoo? I think this is exciting. maybe i'm just too stressed right now. my stomach responded with butterflies, and I smiled, but the feeling soon passed... spring, it almost seems too soon, and it's a whole year away yet.

stupid freakin' compy. maybe it'll cooperate now... fingers crossed...
um, I don't know how likely it is that I'll be able to stop by tonight, but I'll try my darndest, even if it's only for 15 minutes. One more day, that's all I need. Then I'd be all caught-up. honest! this is crazy.

Last exam!... Ever!

ugh. this sucks. my computer is frozen... and 'thinking' ... so I thought I would give it a couple more minutes' grace before I pull the plug. but still.... wtf? it's my last day of work, like hell I have enough time for this to happen... three monthly reports, two budget reports, a final report and a transition manual... plus I have to pack. and I have a meeting downtown, and a bunch of training to do. fuck.

but, on a lighter note, one of the guys in the mac lab near me is playing Queen quite loud on his headphones.. "She's a killer queeeeennn..." ... "dynamite with a laser beam" haha!



HEY BECK! ARE YOU STILL UP FOR DRIVING ME TOMORROW MORNING, OR SHOULD I BE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE ELSE?

done, and DONE bitches!

Now I just gotta make sure I wake up and get to the university with enough time to format my paper before I e-mail it (I don't have WORD on this computer so I make do with WordPad, haha). Let's hope I can get these damn papers in before noon! Otherwise I'm shit outta luck.

Nite.

ugh... I'm closing in on the home stretch. Fuckin take-home exams... sooo much writing, soooo much research, soooo much reading; all of it boooorrring. I just finished a 16-page paper for this class today and now tonight I have to finish up another 10 page take-home essay. Fuckineh. That's like 26 pages... half of which I did in the last 24 hours. sonofabitch. I swear... if I don't pass this class, there will be serious repercussions faced by the institution responsible.

This is absolutely hilarious: 8-bit Dungeons & Dragons.

oh, I just realized some of you may not be aware of show-listing conventions: the bands are always listed in order from LAST BAND to FIRST BAND. The order listed on the bill is always the reverse order in which they play... unless of course you read from the bottom-up and then it would be normal order... dammit, why is such an easy concept so difficult to explain???
