I sent the following note to my teacher this morning...
You are so kind to allow me the extra time, but I don't want you to hold up Week 4 grades for me. Every time I think I'm going to catch a break, something more happens. I woke up early this morning so that I could make some headway because I have no idea what today will hold. I have been concentrating on helping my team and keeping our project on track. I have not been able to complete the content questions.
Putting the priorities of my life in order has helped me to realize that passing this course and remaining sane is more important that making myself crazy just to maintain an A average.
Again, I appreciate you understanding and accommodations.
He wrote back...
See what you can do. I will send out the grades anyway, I'll just wait before posting the solutions.
If you want, you can send in what you have; it will help. The paper was more important.
Guess who is now going to stay up late tonight to get these damn things done?
Oof! Hi Trudes.
Maiden, that sounds like a long night now. And I just figured out the name change. Where the hell have I been?
So, your Kanaan thoughts?
You know, if he threw it, I just don't want to know. I need to think there is a little bit of magic in that finish.
You?
I was in the bar and couldn't hear things, I thought AGR was still up for 1,2,3 in the championship if Dario took it. My assumption was that it was a decisiony thing.
But I like miracles.
I don't think it was a team orders thing.
I think if there was anything except "just racing" then it was about Greg Moore... Which just fucking broke me.
Also he was just the fastest guy there today. Ergo, won.
Why didn't Dario take third in points?
Because the other guy got more points?
I think Hornish had to finish fifth or lower to make up the difference.
Got it. About the fifth. Pretty much had guessed the "more points" thing.
I was all bummed because I didn't realize he wouldn't get the third as I was watching without sound.
Oh, and I'm sure the simultaneous Tony/Dario pits were for your viewing pleasure. Certain of it.
