Too much work and not enough sleep..
Apr. 10th, 2001 02:44 pmMake Scott's current state :P
Was up till after 2:30 or 3 trying to read up for my midterm tonight (the one that I have to do well on or I won't do well in the class overall) then got up for my 8:40 class.. bleh.
However, the weather's gotten nice again (at least briefly), I bought tix to Dar Williams, and bought a used Merrill Bainbridge CD (The Garden) which contains the song "Power of One", which was on a mix tape Jen made for me years ago and I'd never found on CD (and couldn't find on Napster last I checked, either) but which I really liked; I filled out my APO requirements page, I ate lunch outside, I did well in handgun class.. And I think a Thursday homework was postponed.
(And amusingly, I ran into Mike Stevens and Erin Sharp in Trillium today, and they decided that with my current state of facial hair, I look like José Cuervo, or possibly Captain Morgan. I'm not quite sure about those, but I'm still amused :)
=)
So, as long as I study more and do well on my midterm tonight, all will be well. :)

What to do, what to do..
Apr. 10th, 2001 03:53 pmOption 1:
Midterm tonight, less preparation, miss UNIX training, approvedly late for work, have no time limitations on dinner with Jilli/father evening.
Option 2:
Midterm tomorrow night, more preparation, UNIX training tonight, on time for work; limited time with Jilli/father.
Hmmmm....
[Addendum, 5:45pm] I'm leaning towards option 2, cuz I really have to do well on this midterm, 2hrs isn't a bad timespan for dinner, getting paid for that 2.5hrs of work and not missing training are good things, and I have no HW due Thursday like I previously thought. And, it gives me time to pick up the formula sheets (allowed) from Tyler that he forgot to leave in his box for me.
Or, I could just be postponing the inevitable. =P

A very opinionated instructor, here..
Apr. 10th, 2001 07:08 pmTonight with the substitute UNIX instructor:
"LIE-berals"
"Texicans"
"Remember, as bad as our government is, it's not as bad as Mexico's."
"They hate phone lines in Mexico."
Sheesh.

Apr. 10th, 2001 10:55 pmExtra preparation time is useless if one does not use it to prepare.
Must study, must study..
