Hatred of Physics Post 13923940582349582938745.

I think I might be getting my physics test back tonight.

This is not a good thing.

Ew. Just ew.

For sure, the buses of Portland, Or. do not tend to be ridden with overly shenanegous behaviour. However, today I saw the most disgusting thing I think I have ever seen.

There was a man sitting in the back of the bus spitting. There was spit globbed on the window next to him. Spit globbed on the floor underneath him. It was really, really disgusting.

I'm not sure what it says about our society that none of us passengers said anything.

In which she tries not to be melodramatic, and fails miserably.

The Good:
My sister came home today.
I got two grades back today - they were both ok.

The Bad:
I'm ready to thwap the P - she bit me last night, hard. ::scowl:: I may have to dub her vampire-cat, which is a turn of events I'm not particularly happy about.
I have a huge project due on Friday and am really behind on it. After 10 weeks, MatLab is *still* kicking my ass. *kill*.
We filled out our eval's for one class. I didn't get one. I had been looking forward to filling that one out for weeks.

Life, you can stop laughing at me.

Introducing the P

So the beast in my profile photo, who on this blog shall be known henceforth as the P, tends to be an 8 pound ball of occasionally catschevious energy.
She engages in such catscheviousness that, although she's really my brother in law's cat, I'm basically inheriting her for the foreseeable future. Sister and brother in law have a second cat who is twice her size, and she tends to do better when she's kept separate from him.
What the P is not known for is being a lap cat.
Well, tonight, for whatever reason, she decided that she wanted to spend 20 minutes hunkering down in my lap, dozing and stretching all cat-like.
I don't understand. And I'm not arguing.

First Post

I have this horrible thought that, years down the line, the Lord of the Rings will loose some of its power.

You know how sometimes you watch those shows or movies from your past, or even listen to an album of music, and it's lost some of its potency over time? LotR meant so much to me throughout college that the thought of this happening to my favorite movies is really sad.

Fellowship came out in 2000. Today, on the brink of 2009, it's still holding strong.

So far, so good.
