Help! I'm being held prisoner in my own home by an 8 - 10 page budgets paper!
I'm alone except for Daisy, because BB and Bunny wisely bugged out and went up the hill to visit family. BB, who is working on somebody's computer right this moment, will soon read this blog post. Will he call and express sympathy, or will he have Bunny tell me to get off the damned internet again?
God, this paper is crap. I just wrote that the voters should sponsor an initiative to force Governor Arnold to read the book Catch-22, as a means of teaching him irony. Why did I do that, why? I'm going crazy from not talking to humans. Must go outside and see the sun. Walk to convenience store. Buy chocolate. And a proper diet Coke, caffeinated and everything.
heh... I'm currently surfing ebay to avoid studying for my last exam on Monday. Just remember... a good paper is a DONE paper. :)

Ooh! Perfect timing. I need to play the lotto in case this PPA thing doesn't work out.

Maybe a viewing of it with his eyes held open, a la Clockwork!

At least I'm not alone in paper hell. I'm working on an 8 to 10 pager too. Only mine is on virtual identity and the evolution of orality on the internet. The good news is that I'm stealing a bunch of it from the paper I wrote last quarter. The bad news is it's due Monday along with a 20 minute presentation on my findings.

Kimberly and Maya commisserated with me on IM today. You guys were my only human contact, except the family that runs the convenience store, and for some reason they didn't want to hear about how to fix the state budget. Hmm! Go figure!

I'm not a blogoholic. I can quit whenever I want!

Snark... I don't have to get back to work, tyvm. :)
I did Ace that Oral exam and in celebration I am turning in a sub-par paper tomorrow in a different class. I figure, I got the grade I wanted out of the two classes I care about--the other can eat my gym shorts. :) I could re-write tonight--but then I would miss three whole hours of TRASH TV... three whole hours of "who will he pick" between "Should I bid on that" while sufring EBAY. If only the utopia would last.
Good luck with ECON.
