.......

(I wasn't planning on having this count toward my graded entries - I just really needed to rant to someone/something.)
Well today was a lovely day. A truly fabulous, thrilling, exciting day. NOT. I think just about anything that could go wrong today did go wrong. And the day's not over yet!!
So let's see. What happened first...

I did MiniProject 6, got it all finished, typed and ready to go last night. Emailed it to myself before class so I could print it and turn it in. Well somehow in transit all the pictures vanished! I don't know why - they weren't very big images or anything. So I had to scramble around at the last minute trying to find the photos (which I eventually did). Stupid Word 07. I am not a fan.

Speaking of Word 07, people really need to remember that not everyone has the latest updates in such programs. Granted, it's usually students trying to send the dreaded .docx file, but I had a TA send our test review in .docx. So I had to email her to get that review for our test that I just finished an hour ago. Lovely.

I was also going to turn in a revised copy of my Unit 1 paragraph, but for whatever reason, it did not save as a Word document. I haven't the faintest idea WHAT format it ended up in, or how in got in that format, since it was clearly typed in Word, but that was annoying too.

The thermostat for the stairwell closest to my room has been locked at 62 degrees for the past week. It is FREEZING!!! And I go up and down that stairwell almost every time I leave/enter the dorm! Wahh there's no need for that! Especially when it's 80 degrees outside!

Customers at the bookstore can be so rude and evil. It's not MY fault we don't have dressing rooms. Get over it! It's also not my fault that we don't sell official baseball jerseys, or that I don't have the slightest clue where one might find such a thing. And gosh, I am so sorry that we're out of your size - and yes, you're right - it was intentional. We saw you come in and immediately hid all items of clothing in your size because we're just cruel like that. Uh huh. Suuure.

And last night my computer kept going spastic on me. It would freeze up, then unfreeze, then Firefox just died (I have never seen any program need that many updates that often) because I hadn't updated it yet. One of my teachers keeps giving us these huge (40-60 page) reading assignments that are online (it's not that much to read but...) and that she wants us to print out and bring to class if we don't have a laptop!! I'm sorry, I'm not printing that much for an assignment that will last only one day! That's ridiculous. I don't have the paper supply to support that kind of reading!

And I've had this nasty headache practically every day this week. It goes away now and then but it keeps coming back. And I still have 4 hours of class tomorrow (including a presentation and a test) plus 4 hours of work, and another 6 hours of work on Saturday. And this project to finish, a project in my other English class, homework for Japanese, a 10-12 page research paper for Religion, another paper in English, and finals. And work. AHHHHHH!

Whew. Okay. Better now. I'm going to do the real blog posts now.
