Because You Asked For It

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

What Star Wars/Star Trek character are you

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?

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

Reversion To The Old Ways

Since there seems to be no rhyme or reason to which of my posts get comments and which don't, I'm going post whatever I feel like. Sure, I love comments but I must face facts that I'm not going to get them. No, I'm not going to review every episode of every TV show I'm going to watch this new season again simply because it doesn't appeal to me any more. To be sure, I will write about some of the new series since that does still interest me but not every episode... I am going to go back to complaining about my love life occassionally though because, if I can't discuss it here, where can I? Remember that workstudy student I mentioned being interested in? Yeah, well she's married apparently and I think even has at least one child so even if she didn't commute from such a long distance, nothing is going to happen with that. (Boo!) This is the first time I've discovered information of this nature before I made a complete ass of my self so this is go

This Was Supposed To Be Titled "Brooms and Baseball" But, Now, Forget It...

Saturday, my aunt and roommate went with me to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix . Overall, I loved it but I'd be lying if I didn't have quibbles but there was much I enjoyed about it. In the book, I found the character of Luna annoying as all get out but she totally rocked in this movie. "I'm hungry. I hope they have pudding." Delores Umbridge was also great. I did, however, miss the heavy Scottish accent Cho had in the last movie. (My cousin pointed out that she still had one but from a different region. I say it isn't the same.) I actually approved of them cutting the Quidditch stuff out of this movie but the OWL scenes, including the studying, being cut was disapointing. They had the scene with Fred and George but they didn't make clear they actually left school so what really was the point? Speaking of confusion, how exactly could the students ride creatures only Harry and Luna could see? I'm pretty sure it was explained in the book b
