"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

My school has just made extensive changes resulting in an "enhanced web-based self service system, where students, faculty and staff can access information and utilize online features to help make the student experience a positive and rewarding one."*

So far, what this has meant is that things that I used to be able to check online at any time with no hassle (like the schedule of courses offered next semester), I now have to log in to check, and apparently it's only available until 9 PM anyway. Or possibly 8. Not now, anyway. Grumble.

I'm sure it'll be very helpful, and there are always inconveniences with upgrades, but just right now... grr.

(*By the way, although I'm quite fond of this school, I'd like to point out that the things that make a student experience a positive and rewarding one are not even vaguely connected to the things they've changed.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm glad someone understands me, amych.

hmm, and it appears I kill the thread dead with my rage at the world tonight, so with that I go to bed and tell the world to EAT IT!

I feel like I'm in topsy turvy world. Lori's on her way to NY and msbelle's on her way to one of our favorite places.

Weird.

Also, did you all notice, on GA that Kate Walsh who plays Addison has become a season regular?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Goodnight, msbelle. Sorry about the asswipe night.

I need to get back to my endless grading. I swear some days all I do is feed the kids and grade.

Oh, and Allyson, you are not dumpy. Not by any external measure anyway. You are sexy and vivacious and smart and funny.

Where is msbelle going?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ugh, msbelle. I hope it all goes smoothly from here on in.

Someone told me it's not possible to get burgers rare at a restaurant in California. Is that true?

I don't think so, ita. I know it was true in Seattle while I lived there, but I don't think it's true in CA.
