wonder who’s next on the court

As predicted… I barely kept awake in Needs Assessment, and I got a 100 on my midterm in there… so all that rest is paying off 🙂 hehe. Work was cool, primarily lunch… 🙂 My Network Programming midterm went well as far as I could tell, the “writing out some code” part wasnt too bad at all… and the TFTP packet question wasnt hard once I waded through all the reading of the RFC… Was too lazy to go home, so I headed back to ETC to chill for a little bit… even did a 4 o’clock job for them out of the goodness of my heart hehehe. Came home and plopped myself in front of the computer for awhile… then mom called, the parents are actually coming up on Saturday… should be a fun and interesting time! Mom wants to see me make a fool of myself up on the karaoke stage 🙂 hehe. Karl came over, and we headed to the mall for some grub, and walked around some… it was college night. Hey Amanda, Wooster was actually there, and the guy had a yellow and black plaid tie on!
Then on to Best Buy, where we were going to purchase the new Chevelle CD, “Wonder What’s Next”, for $5.99. We would have, only they didn’t have any! As in, I asked the kid working, he said they got 25 copies, and sold them all… and I’m thinking, who in God’s name is buying Chevelle? Well, besides us of course. But I didn’t think it was going to be this popular of an album! I know “The Red” has been all over radio and MTV, but still, Best Buy sells out the first day? Incredible… so off to Target, I figured, we may as well, who knows, they might have it. Sure enough! $6.99! I’ll pay an extra dollar, no complaints… and they only had like 6 or 7 copies… so either the shipping quantities were really low, or it really is that popular…
Where were all you dipshits when Point #1 came out? Yeah, that’s what I thought. Chevelle who? mmm hmm…
ok I feel better now… so after that, it was off to play racquetball.. reserved Court 4 at 9pm…. two freshmen in there, we gave them till 9, and then politely tapped on the door… times up guys. “blah blah blah the lady told us we had till 9:15 yadda yadda” uhhh, no. So the kids close the door and start playing again! Karl was having no part of that… meanwhile, I went to the desk… “Nope, they’re done at 9.” So the manager comes down and boots em, cuz they were having no part of Karl… see ya later fuckers… likely story… I got whipped again, but I’m getting better… hehe. Actually made a couple nice shots, and had a couple nice returns… and my fair share of dumb moves too, dont get me wrong hehe. So back here now, writing this, maybe I’ll start in on the Network Programming Lab. That’d be fun. 🙂
Cheap plug: http://www.homestarrunner.com. BenMo and the other ETC crew got me hooked on this goofy flash cartoon site! “Awww, things were just about to start getting CrazyGoNuts!!!”
