You say "Wow, VERY slippery floor in kitchen."
You say "I nearly fell over/."
Victor says "How... ungood."
You say "...yes... I nearly fell over... Slashdot."
Victor says "YOU SLASHDOTTED FALLING OVER"
Victor says "NOW PEOPLE WON'T BE ABLE TO DO IT FOR HOURS"



Hmm hmm hmm. I have used up all the milk. It still wasn't enough for my cereal, but at least now NOBODY ELSE GETS ANY BWAHAHAHA of course the reason we were so low is that everyone else already had their morning cereal...

Got to bed an hour late last night? Check.
Got woken up an hour early this morning by noisy sibs? Check.
Exhausted before I've even gotten to campus? Check-a-roonie.
Oy.

Subject line being what Pam identified today as.

Planned schedule today: work, hop across street for class in E(ngineering building)202, hop down and then up stairs for lab in C(omputer)S(cience building)401, hop down and then up stairs for another class in E202.

What actually happened: work, hop across street for class in E202, no lab! so hop across street again for work, then hop across street for other class in E202.

And Thursday still promises to be far, far worse. Oy, my poor feets.

I am stoked about one of my classes now, though. That's new for me. I don't generally give a crap about my classes. Sometimes I enjoy a class because of the instructor's being awesome, or something, but generally I just don't care about the actual subject matter. However, this semester, CPSC 240 has come along. Course title is Comp Sys Architecture 1. Actual course subject matter appears to be on circuits and binary logic and how things like processors work and stuff. Wow. Yes. THIS is what I want, this is what I've been wanting to be taught, not goddamn programming. I do hope class will continue to be interesting when I wind up sitting in its lab section till 5:20 every Thursday.

Which brings me to a question. Apparently I have activity sessions in a Mac lab. Does this mean I can't ever do my work at home? I haven't worked with a Mac since I think high school, but I seem to remember that floppies need to be formatted differently for Macs than for PCs. Am I likely to be screwed in this regard? Will things done for class be unreadable at home? Should I just shoot myself now considering that assignments in-class and assignments specifically assigned as homework are required to be on the same floppy? Those who know about how Macs and Windows machines play together, please advise.

Oh, and I was taught what CPU and RAM stand for. Golly gee, such high-level concepts they're teaching me. Wait, Professor Goetz, I've forgotten how to follow links on webpages, would you please show me again...?
