Oh, SNEAKY! Our Upper School Director just thwarted everyone who had planned to skip out of going to work this Friday. She invited the Upper School faculty to a holiday gathering in her (huge) office at 8:30 a.m. The kids are done on Thursday, and most of the staff will have grades in by the end of that day. This invite is just
mean!
I will have to be at school on Friday anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter all that much to me (apart from the fact that now I have to get up at my normal time and slog through rush hour rather than go in late), but dude. Mean.
I am now desirous of writing a book with the title: Oscar Mike Golf Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Bravo Bravo Quebec.
Sierra November Echo Romeo Kilo. Also, I would so buy that book.
60 minutes has video of Birds of Paradise, pygmy possums and giant rats.

Sounds like you read it right. 8:30 AM anythings are of the soul-sucking variety.

uncool.
and in other uncool news, I recently got a new computer after the old one committed hari kari. I could not back it up my damned self because it kept crashing and the cheap bastards hadn't installed a CD burner. I slogged through to get my personal shit, and gave up. So, i had to rely on the tech to pull the files I requested. of course, I KEPT finding shit that he had missed. Like say, my ENTIRE pictures folder. Which is filled with work shit. (reason for not copying-- it was such a big file @@) He installed a corrupted copy of Outlook, and couldn't find another one. So, I had a friend of mine send me one, but the copy on the computer was so fucked up that it couldn't be uninstalled. So, now, guess what? they get to wipe my harddrive!! I backed everything up, tried to back up my Outlook personal folder (came out to 900 MB, WTF), but it WON'T COPY TO A MOTHERFUCKING CD. It's too big to SendSpace, it's too big to Gmail. So, now asshat tech is looking for a thumb drive big enough. I have a thumb drive, but it's got stuff on it and is only 1GB, so it won't work.
AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Dana, you probably shouldn't look at Lee Goldberg's blog if you already want to kill things.
