The official G.I. Joe convention is going on right now in San Francisco. Man, I am so jealous of those who are there right now!

Well, I start working back at Edward's tonight. Feel free to stop by and laugh at me! I'm on the box office 6 to 10.

Blogger has been updating its software for the ast few days so I have't been able to udpated until now. I'm back home now, and I had a blast on the east cost, mostly in Orlando. I got back Tuesday afternoon, and have been wadiong through my souvenirs and photos since then. You all know that I'm not much in the way of description, so I'll just leave you with this pic:



Once again I'm pimpin' it with some fictional hotties, though I must admit that Rogue looks a little, um.. odd.

Hey everyone! I'm actually writing from the visitor's center in Times Square, NYC right now! Cool, huh? This is kind of a frantic trip, as I'll be going back and forth from Philadelphia a few more times, as well as making stops in D.C. and Orlando. I'm gonna be all over the place...

I got home at 1:00 this afternoon and I was finally able to say what I'd been waiting weeks to say: SUMMER BREAK!

Enjoy it while it last people. I'll be travelling from Saturday until the 24th, so don't expect many updates for a while. Even when I do get back, I'll only sporadically update this.

Woohoo! I just finished my last paper for the year! Now all that stands between me and my summer vacation is a 5 minute scene performance! Time to start packing up, I suppose.

Not much to say today, just working on papers. Oh, and if I don't get this page working by Friday, you people won't see an update for a while! I'll be going with my parents to the east coast to see Michael. While mom and I go to Orlando after that, dad and Mike will drive back home.

Edit: Hey, I finally got my page to work! Unfortunately for security reasons, I had to delete my account and re-upload the entire website. Even more unfortunately, half my guestbook entries are gone. Sign, people, sign!

Maybe I'm just lazy, but I really hope this thing with Topcities works out. I don't really want to move my whole website again. I'd also have to send out messages telling people who've linked me to update their URLs. Ugh....

Anyways, when this site does come back, you'll probably want something to read other than my aggravated rants. So let me tell you about my little parking mishap. During the weekend, my dad came down to help me move some stuff into my new apartment. When he left, we switched cars, so I would have more room to pack my things up when I go home for the summer. But guess what? I FORGOT TO SWITCH THE PARKING PASS!!! ARRGGHH!! Well, I figured I would wake up early, run to the information booth and buy a 10 day pass. I'd get back before they start checking permits, and I wouldn't lose my great spot. So I set my alarm clock. BUT I FORGET TO TURN THE ALARM ON! So I wake up about an hour after the parking regulations go into effect and nearly s#!t myself worrying I might have a ticket already. Well, i lucked out. At this point I figure I don't have the luxury of hoping my car isn't checked until I get back, so I drive it to the information station (it is, after all, about a half-mile away) and buy the pass. Sure enough, when I get back, my spot's gone. But wait, that's not where the story ends! I go to move my car to a parking lot somewhat nearby. The sign shows my type of permit is accepted, but as I look around I get the feeling it isn't for the time I'm there. As it turned out, my parking pass was only valid there in the evening. So I go back to move my car and guess what? I'VE LOCKED MYSELF OUT! So now I'm stuck outside my car in the wrong parking lot with the inspectors due to arrive any minute. Oh yeah, in my hurry to get outside earlier, I neglected to bring my mobile phone with me. What do I do? I left a little note on the windshield and ran inside the Supercomputer Center to use their phone. Well, campus assistance only helps cars without power locks, so I had to call up AAA. When they arrived, I was waiting by the car and I luckily hadn't been ticketed. (Twice in one day!!)

So what's the moral of the story? If you're gonna switch cars, make sure you switch your parking pass, too!

Well, here goes nothing...


TEST

This is getting ridiculous. There are many Topcities members in the forums getting about the same service I am.

Ok, so hopefully, by leaving my site alone for about 24 hours, everything could be resolved. (Had to look this up in the Help Forums, 'cause Topcities doesn't like doing its own tech-support....)

But this brings up an interesting question. Why am I typing this if I know you can't read it?

Ok, so something weird's going on with Topcities whereby my login doesn't seem to work, and the entire website disappears at times. I hope this works itself out...

Our final project in my structure of art class was to make a mock-up of a monument we would created. I naturally created a monument celebrating the mad scientists of the world, but the boldest and most hilarious monument wasn't mine. This guy brought in a mound made of chocolate covered paper mache. With a nipple. Yes, one of the monuments was a life-size breast. He figured the real monument would be made of bronze so kids could play on this huge thing. But why a breast? Well, on Tuesday, one student brought in a monument about chocolate. People could eat this chocolate. This guy figured all the chocolate would make you thirsty, so this huge breast would be nearby. His mock up actually connected to a working pump that shot milk out the nipple! And that wasn't the best part. After the section ended, he had to walk with this thing to his feminist class!

I learned an invaluable lesson today. If it's late, you're tired, and you need to burn a CD-R to turn a project in, make sure you burn the right type of CD. (You'd think trying to put an html and swf file into an audio CD would produce some kind of error message, wouldn't you?) Oh well, I got a cool TA, and I got to turn in a good CD-Rom later.

Oh, it's gonna be a long night of working. Theoretically. Ah, who am I kidding? I'm just gonna waste my time and end up in a last-minute panic! It may be stupid, but at least it's consistent.

Finally, June is here! Two more weeks and it's that sweet, sweet summer vacation! Man, I really gotta work on my finals stuff....
