Open Bar: Funnier Than White People Practicing Voodoo

[EK WAFFLR]

Welp, after the end of this month I will no longer have to put up with insane coworkers and people with dementia (probably).

Managed to wrangle some part time work at my local shop.  5 minutes away on the bike, generous discount and less bodily fluids (probably).  Only downside is being contracted for 10 hours per week, as opposed to 24, but overtime should take care of that.

[Roly Poly Oly-Garch]

That's a lot of effort to go through just to see Turbonegro.

Total dispatch from the Gay Bar, this.

The only problem with being on break is that all the people who haven't gotten to see or talk to me for the last three months want to hang out, so I feel like I'm always on the go. 

I think that next break, I need to tell everyone I'm going out of town, and just hole up in my house for a week. Well, except that my children and housemates will still be around.

Dude, take a day to sit on the porch and drink a beer. Let 'em come to you and bring food. :P

Yeah, I kinda had that realization today, that my two weeks of freedom are almost over, and I don't think I've had a single day of true downtime. I have a dinner party tonight, potluck tomorrow, film festival Friday, hiking with BF Saturday. I think that on Sunday I'm going to the beach with a book, BY MYSELF, and just chilling.

That all sounds awesome. I hope you have a great time.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I think I'm going to. And I'm looking forward to school starting, as well, even though I know I'm going to start bitching about it a week in. 

[Cardinal Pizza Deliverance.]

Bitching about it is part of the fun.

[LMNO]

Don't forget, you have a midterm coming up.

It totally is. It's how college students make sure everyone knows what subjects they're taking and how hard they're working.

Don't forget, you have a midterm coming up.

Actually, what's both awesome and mildly alarming is that while PCC has a standardized three-exam system, with two midterms and a final, PSU professors do whatever they want. They can have weekly open-book quizzes, they can have no midterms and one comprehensive final, they can fuck exams altogether and base the grade on attendance and participation, they can give you your entire grade based on a project, they can curve or not curve, they can arbitrarily add points to everyone's score, and they can change their mind about how they're grading and/or testing partway through the term if they feel like it, as long as they clearly communicate that's what they're doing.

It's a crapshoot, I have no idea what's happening next term.

Tomorrow, Anarchangel meets for the final time, probably to have a couple of beers and bring our gear home. Pete leaves for California next Saturday.

How many times has Anarchangel met for the final time? It seems like it's been about once a month for the last couple years.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Just once, when we went on hiatus. Pete moving across the continent makes it pretty permanent though. We had what we realized was probably or final gig a couple of months ago.
