Because You Asked For It

Lady Vader wanted more quizzes so I found one that should appeal to both of my readers.

Crusher Pict.
You are Doctor Beverly Crusher of the U.S.S
Enterprise. You are a great friend and
supporter. You recongize people in need and
help them whenever you can. You are also very
trusting "If there is nothing wrong with
you, maybe there's something wrong with the
universe."

Shut up all of you.

We had another guest speaker today in Modern Publishing: Melanie Kroupa who has her own imprint at FSG. This means she can have her name on the book and basically authorize it to be published herself. This honor is generally earned but Jackie O and Julie Andrews have/had imprints as well. (Hope for my writing?) Anyway, Melanie basically used the time to give "sales pitches" for books she had been involved with. No as interesting as Susan. The rest of class we started presentations for our books we had just done papers on and that wil be doing more work with. I think I described this assignment before but maybe not.

Guess what I pretty much confirmed today? It seems my undergrad loans apparently weren't put in deferment as I thought. One, I guess, my parents are just going to pay off but, without a job, I can't afford to pay the other one month after month or my money could be better spent elsewhere at the very least. Tomorrow, someone will be bitched out. I really didn't need this aggravation.

Oh, and that girlfriend I mentioned in my first post showed up on IM today. She wanted to make sure things are "weird" between us. The whole thing is weird frankly. I don't know why the whole thing bothers me so much. In her words: "It's not like we had sex..."

I need opinions. Tomorrow is really good TV but there's a gathering of sorts at the Quad City Cafe here at the Residence Campus to watch Game 1 of the ALCS and rumor is there's free food. I'm seriously tempted to go. I'd have to go buy a tape if I did go that route. Or do I ever bother and just catch the shows on reruns? What are your thoughts?

Random Comments Into My Life

We did yardwork yesterday. I picked up a lot of sticks. Home Depot sucks on a Friday morning. My father and I went to get a new gascan for the mower and there was only one employee around to help us...and she didn't know anything about how these new fangled gas cans work... So due to a bank error when I reset my bank account so I could accurately keep track again, I had like a hundred dollars less in my account than I thought so my last bill payment put me in the hole. This would've been all right and easily fixed if I had been paid for the last week of my mailroom job but, oddly, I still have not been even though it's been weeks. I don't know if I can accurately convey how infuriated this makes me. If it doesn't happen soon, heads will roll! Also yesterday I re-watched the Enterprise episode "Regeneration"; this time with audio commentary from the writers. They made some valid points I hadn't considered on the issue of if this episode screws with...

Remind Me

Remind me to complain how boring and unexciting my life more often because as soon as I did, it got really exciting really fast. Last night, we had four visitors arrive from Korea. They like ziti and garlic bread. Go figure. They will be staying until Sunday night. I told my mother (AKA Hyacinth Bucket) she was making way too much salad but did she listen? No. Now we have this huge-ass bowl of salad in the fridge...What's really irritating is first the fork we use to serve catfood went missing now Susie's dish is missing as well... Tomorrow, I have a physical to prepare for my surgery then I go to my orthopedist's to fill out consent forms. Woo Hoo! I hope I can find time for a haircut as well because... Friday, I have a job interview at a library in Massachusetts! It's a reference job but I also will be conducting a book group. I've never done that but it sounds really fun. Sure, I'll be stuck reading many book that sucks but isn't that what book group i...

The Neglected Blog

With the discovery of the time-waster that is Facebook, I find I no longer need to waste my time here. This is mainly why I haven't done any quizzes or other memes here in a cat's age. (I'm not a dog person...) They're all over there. Also why tell you all about what's not going on in my life when I can better waste time by making fake money off Lindsay Lohan's hi-jinks? Added to that, you can regularly follow the mundaness that is my life on Twitter. I don't want to say I'll never blog again. Frankly, this site and I have chronicled much over the years and I'm not ready to give it up fully. Every so often, something comes up worth sharing. Case in point, Thursday night, there was a retirement celebration for our outgoing OT professor complete with a guest lecturer from Boston, dinner and a vesper service designed by the professor herself. It was good Thai food, though admittedly not my favorite Asian cuisine, and saw many people I knew. My parents c...
