And...here we are again.
THUMBS UP: That history paper from the last blog entry? Got a B on it!
THUMBS DOWN: It only took me until 2 am the day it was due because my printer decided to start omitting random letters from every page, and my prof probably wouldn't have been too pleased to hear about "King eorge." (That's "King George" for those of you who don't speak demented-printer-ese.)
THUMBS UP: The printer problem has since been taken care of...
THUMBS DOWN: ...but part of solving the problem involved canceling three weeks' worth of papers in queue. Oh, well.
THUMBS UP: Finals are over (and have been since Tuesday)!
THUMBS DOWN: I'm still not home yet...
THUMBS UP: ...because I'm in Boston on tour with the Subs.
THUMBS DOWN: A crazy ice storm hit New England, leaving people - including my family and much of my town - without electricity, running water, phone service, and heat.
THUMBS UP: I'm in a well-heated, well-lit Hampton Inn.
THUMBS DOWN: My friends' fish that I were taking care of over break? They weren't quite so lucky.
THUMBS SUPER-DOWN: Lots of dead fish.
THUMBS WAY, WAY DOWN: I have to break the news to said friends.
THUMBS UP: My friends are very understanding people. This is partly why I love them.
THUMBS DOWN: Remembering why I love them reminds me of how much I miss them.
THUMBS UP: I'll see them again...!
THUMBS DOWN: ...but not for two weeks, six days, and a few hours.
THUMBS UP: I get to see my friends back home...!
THUMBS DOWN: But not until they get out on break in like a week. Or five days. Whatever. It's a long time, okay?
THUMBS UP: Michelle, the peanut butter to my jelly, has a blog! As does Kelly!
THUMBS DOWN: Said blogs are not updated nearly enough to suit my creeper tendencies. =) (Get on that, would you, guys? Just kidding...ish.)
THUMBS UP: I finally got wireless access here on the fourth floor of the Hampton Inn...
THUMBS DOWN: ...but I have to sit on the ground next to the bathroom door facing the wall in order to get any signal at all.
THUMBS UP: There's a mirror on the wall, though, so I can indulge in narcissistic admiration of my own reflection.
THUMBS DOWN: This doesn't change the fact that sitting on the floor makes my butt hurt.
THUMBS UP: Going home tomorrow!
THUMBS DOWN: House is without heat, running water, power, phone, and any other amenities, making it feel more like an Navy SEAL exercise in torture endurance than home.
THUMBS UP: At least I'm not a fish?
