Ugh.

May. 11th, 2001 03:36 pm
Apparently mom's work just called to say that she won't be getting overtime anymore. With her working the equivalent of eight days a week (yes, literally), we were barely keeping our heads above financial water. With only five days a week...

We're dead.

Oh, my goodness, we're dead.

Guess I could always forfeit my scholarship, quit school and get a job.

Cripes.
My mom, to herself (but completely overhearable, oh yes, even through a closed door!), on the subject of the recent developments, not five minutes ago: "Happy Mother's Day."

Thanks, mom. If you ever wanted me to hate myself for being alive, well... mission accomplished.
I wandered off for about two hours to take a nap in attempt to clear my head. The SocialMUX guys (that's their title now, methinks -- The SocialMUX Guys) took the opportunity to be very amusing (waited until you didn't have any chicks around to mess things up, eh? ;P). Here is a small snippet.

Tom sends his army of cuuuute little Linux penguins after Carlo.
Tom says, "Waddlewaddlewaddlewaddle!"
Chris shoots every 42nd penguin, selected by lot.
Carlo says, "Yay!"
Carlo reconceptualizes the universe in one second.
Wanting to be the minority, Tom says, "Darnit, I hate having to recompile my penguins."
Chris reloads. "Recompile this. ;P"
Carlo says, "The entire universe in one large conspiracy. They're after you. You don't know what they're gonna do. You don't know how they'll do it. But you do know you're involved..."
Tom says, "$ make RUNFORTHESPOONYHILLS!"
Carlo wonders if there's any logic at all in that.
Tom applies the law of negative reversal to Carlo's reconceptualized universe.
Carlo says, "So....chicken anyone?"
