Nice bag, SA! But it will be totally worthless to you if by the time you get it your shoulder and arm are so painful, you can't even reach through the straps to put it on.

At least I got to see the gay cowboys on ice first though.

Hell yes! I scarred Tep with that shit.

Eh. I only have two and a half months of bag-wearing time left before grad. I'll make it. :)

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Get thee to Minearverse, quester. Click on the linky. All will be revealed.

Oh, THOSE gay cowboys on ice. Seen 'em. 2 years ago, I think.

You also probably have 20 years on me. Someone should have warned me when I went back to school in my 30s that some things were better attempted when one's bones haven't solidified yet. All you one-shoulder-wearing bag-carriers get offa my lawn!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. This thread is almost done....

Bummer:

There have been quite a few stories over the years concerning universities accidentally sending out congratulations emails to applicants when they didn't mean to. By this point, you would have figured that most universities would have put in place a decent process to prevent this from happening -- but apparently not. The latest is Berkeley's law school. The director of admissions there was apparently teaching a new hire how to use the email system, including (uh oh) how to send a single message to many people at the same time. He just so happened to pick the "you've been accepted email" and the list of all 7,000 applicants and then, naturally, pressed the send key. Seems like those first year classes might get a little crowded this year....

I am SO sorry. I hope you don't have nightmares....

And speaking of nightmares, I'm off to bed, hoping to NOT have nightmares of any sort, but especially not gay cowboys on ice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Schools send emails now? That seems lame -- no fat envelopes!

SA, I wouldn't be buying a fancy backpack at the end of college, unless you really like backpacks.

Some people just should not be allowed computers. Or possibly, fingers.

I think I get an anti-toaster for that one.
