A funny thing…

&#034I always have a minute. I keep a spare one in my pocket for just such occasions.&#034 –Erin Doyle

You know, it&#039s weird. Here after all this time, I finally get the ability to post set up and working (I believe) on my webpage, and now hardly anyone&#039s using it! Continue reading

Bye bye, library.

Today&#039s going to be my last day at the library this summer. I&#039m accepting the position Brad offered over at the Student Academic Services Center, and it&#039s a full-time position (8-4:30). Continue reading

It’s late.

It&#039s late. I mean, I know that I just said the same thing in the title, but well, it&#039s after one so I&#039m not thinking that straight and I&#039m prone to repitition anyway. Continue reading

Saying goodbye twice sucks

Au revoir, mon Roi Méchant de la Table Française.

Gone tonight

Instant human; just add caffeine. –Unknown

Well, I&#039m not going to be here this evening because I&#039m going to a friend&#039s house to help him pack. The goober didn&#039t even have very many boxes and yet his dad&#039s coming to get him tomorrow! Continue reading

&#034The way to a man&#039s heart is through his left ventricle.&#034 –Unknown

Right, so my life is far too complicated right now. In addition to worrying about the work I&#039m doing on this paper for the conferences Macheak and I are going to try to go to, I now have to worry about just work in general at my job! Continue reading

More work!

&#034Like a graceful vase, a cat, even when motionless, seems to flow.&#034 –George Will
