Dear Santa… Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! In November I got in line at the supermarket at the same time as someone else and I didn't yield (-8 points). Last Thursday I donated bone marrow to tmaster in a life-saving procedure (300 points). Last month I gave laugh434 a wet willie, then I took it back (-5 points). In October I had a shoot-out with rival gang lords on the 5 near LA (-76 points). In July I gave change to a homeless guy (19 points). Overall, I've been nice (230 points). For Christmas I deserve a pony! Sincerely, The_Psion

Ok, so it's been like, forever since I"ve updated.  I've just been so incredibly busy with school.  I seem to be doing just enough to get through (although I really don't know how I'm going to survive tomorrow….), but I'm up until about 3 each night and then up at 8:30 and do it all over again.

It's been nice here, cold, windy and snowy.  I like it.  Although the Commodore needs a bath.  I just picked up a St. Vincent decal (the bookstore now has ones that go on the outside in case you have tinted windows, like he does).

We got a Christmas tree and of course I'm running the obligatory: Name Mike's Christmas Tree Contest.  I'm accepting names until Friday and then we'll vote.

Overall though I feel so shitty, I just feel so forgotten and tossed aside.  I know everyone's busy, but at least tell me that, don't tell me how important I am and then forget all about me.

And of course, I'm sick of the self-serving adminstration of this school, they can all shove it (oh, my mother has taught be to be vindictive very well!)

But as always, life goes on as it must, I finished my website (although I have to uplaod it somewhere, but that isn't required for the class, just the design), my electronic meda final is just about done, and I just finished glueing my publication production project (a game for first graders teaching them the alphabet and animals).  Just a philo paper, an accounting exam and one last issue of the paper (comes out Monday).

 Finals week can't come soon enough, but then I want time to stop…

I just experienced one of my now favorite moments of going to college at St. Vincent: Four people (myself being one of them) carrying a coffin across campus, and no one asking anything about it or questioning us!

Again, it's been a while since my last update, sorry about that.  I guess I never realize how busy I am.  Last week was supposed to be a fairly easy week but that got shot to hell.

This upcoming week I have a layout of the paper to do (plus a ton of work in the office since we finally got internet), a philosophy paper and study for my accounting exam.

unnoticed , unheard and ignored by all, the little stick figure over in the corner slowly and painfully fades away into oblivion

It's been a while since I've posted, sorry all.  I've pretty much been disappearing anyway.  Between all the work I've had to do, and well, everything else, I've been so exhausted.

I really don't want to do anything this weekend.  I'm working the haunted underground (everyone should come, except Tim…becasue I don't think it would be worth the price of airline tickets at this point…now if it was like a month ago then I'd so go ahead!).  I'm really excited, I was part of the group that did it freshmen year, and we're all back together with some new additions and it will be great.

Other than that, I just want to disappear, as in, I really don't want to go to the party on Saturday.

Off to finish the newspaper, which comes out Monday.  It's a special 12-page edition!

Anyone have O.A.R.'s "Love and Memories"

If so, let me know so I can get it from you…thanks!

Two posts in one day, I know, how exciting:

From the people who brought you "The Name Mike's Car Competition" comes: "Name Mike's Plant Competition"!  Now accepting names!

The plant is green and leafy….yeah, I can't give you much more than that, it was $1.33 at Lowe's…stop by to see it if you'd like

blatanly stollen from Jolene's away message, but it is so perfect:

some nights this is easy to swallow
others, it just tears me apart
sometimes this is overexaggerated
but mostly it's pretty accurate
& sometimes i fall apart right in front of you
& it doesn't really suprise me that you don't notice..

I was very accomplished yesterday:

I finished the newspaper (sent in this morning, although I had to send corrections as two pictures didn't go through, but no biggie).

I finished Myst V: End of Ages (Yeesha was teetering and about to fall off the deep end.  Escher was a bastard, which I knew from the moment he blamed the fall of D'ni on Tian'na.  It was good to see Atrus one last time, and how I love the Bharo!)

I re-taped the 4-square court to regulation size

I recovered from being sick the night before, some weird thing where I went to bed feeling fine, then woke up to puke (and no, there was no alcohol involved last night).

Anyone want to go to Cleveland Saturday November 26 for a concert (the saturday after thanksgiving)?

Check out the concert
Tickets range from $20-$55

Seriously…I'll drive
