I have come to the conclusion that life is all about jumping through hoops.

It is just that different people hold that hoop at different points in your life.

I hope all turns out well....jump little doggy, jump.

Think of it as running the gaunlet to prove your worth. Just keep track of all those who have done you ill, and then one glorious day you will have your mighty vengence upon them! Oh yes...the day will come...why are you looking at me funny?

Mmm, vagrancy. What is your department doing? This just sucks.
I'm fortunate enough to be in a better situation. However, the deaprtment is forcing me to switch to a worse office, giving my office to a non-departmental student.

Hey there...sorry that I've been away, but more sorry to hear that your department is drinking your soul. Best of luck in sorting it all out. I know how departmental politics can suck.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Which university? Jesus, I hate how you can't respond to comments. Makes asking questions seem kind of pointless huh.
