moonwiseImmensely tired today. Don't know why. However, I've had a glimmer of hope in the chemistry department - I might have gotten a troublesome reaction to work. I hope so because it means good things, such as I might actually graduate one of these days.
Campus is finally quiet after about a week of collective partying; the students have had their reunions and the ceremonies are over. Doesn't mean that much to me except that parking is much less tight and if I arrive at 9:30, good spots will still be available. Another reason to like summer.
Hideto was kind enough to send me PhotoShop and a variety of goodies to play with; thank you very much, Hideto! I made a new graphic for the Photo Gallery (no big deal, but I made it myself!) The EyeCandy plug-in is really neat, and perhaps it will be an inspiration to update my insipid site.
We're off to Buffalo this weekend to visit some friends. Seven hours one way for a weekend really isn't that great, but our friends want to see us, and they won't take a day off work to spend with us. To be fair, I think they have very little vacation time - he just started at Praxair, and they only gave him a week's worth to start out. Yuck.
Like Shadow, I had the extreme pleasure of watching Cybor turn off the post poll option. Short of getting out the flamethrower (which I itch to do regularly, especially when "Bryan the Gothic Beatnik" posts,) there isn't much we can do to improve the general intelligence level of the Realm. If I see one more post about a Soul Reaver movie or a poll about who Raziel should hook up with, I'm going to scream. In addition, anyone who thinks cutesy-poo and Soul Reaver go together should have their head examined.
Enough ranting for now.

It's annoying to see in the GLOK forum, the absurd topics that pop up, and I too noticed Bryan the Gothic Beatnik congratulating himself on his pictures. That was just strange.
I know what it's like to have a semi-peaceful university campus. Most of the students have gone home, and there is very little people around. It's quiet, calm, and no annoying student stereotypes around. Bliss!
