So, that professor that I don't really like who used bad Star Wars references just skipped our final. Just didn't show up. We waited half an hour, then signed an attendance sheet which we put into his mailbox, then bailed.

He e-mailed all of us just now and basically said "Whoops, my bad!"

I'm pretty pissed.

One of my professors just used Star Wars as a serious analogy in a philosophy class. I'm not opposed to Star Wars references in philosophy, because there are actually some decent ones to be made.

But then he started talking about how the Skywalkers were just a bunch of whiney bitches (his language, not mine), and that's when I tuned out.

If he can't understand...

I've moved on to do some questing in BT, but it's really irritating to me - mostly it seems like all the quests I want to do are in areas that are swarming with mobs that will aggro at the drop of the hat, plus more will spawn right on top of me while I'm fighting.

Makes it hard to want to play. I tend to get to a point eventually where I just go, "Bugger this, I'm going to go fishing." Which reminds me, I need to do some research on some fish that I've caught recently...

That's pretty much how I feel right now. Keeping track of all of this is such a nightmare. I thought the hard part was everything I did to qualify. surreal

Modern technology is amazing. It's what makes things like this possible:

I went in for my hair appointment and I found out that my stylist, a hip and chatty 27 year old, is a republican.

I was shocked. She's the first one of my circle of friends/acquaintances who wasn't absolutely jumping for joy on election night. She must be so bummed.

Heh. Heh. Heh.

Minor update: I discovered my power supply is not oomphy enough to support another device, and so have scrapped the two-hard drive plan and have gotten Diva Drive set up just they way she ought to be.

Yep, overall, I'm pretty content.

My trap isn't working as well as I had hoped. whatever I think they are nesting in my sink, so I'm going to give that a good cleaning...someday soon.

Ha! My last two blogs have been about those damned boots, but they are absolutely fabulous. The coat is what's new. I'm not sure how I would feel about a saucily dressed professor. At my alma mater it would have caused a stir among the faculty to be sure. I think it's important to be professional, but at the same time, I'd hate to stifle creativity for its sake.

Yea, it's on my gamefly so it should be coming in the mail soon.

For dinner tonight:

Baked artichokes with basil, garlic, and lemon, recipe courtesy of a digg entry I saw earlier. They were amazing.

Vegetarian risotto with manchego cheese. Also amazing. Manchego is my new favorite cheese. Tastes kind of like parmesan only with less bite, and it's way, way cheaper.

we really only go to one here. it's a 9 hole course, but each hole has 2 different launch pads, so it's kinda like 18 holes. there are two other courses, but one is in a swamp and the other has, no joke, whole lakes and rivers as hazards. f that.
