There's not enough bitching

I miss the idle chatroom chatter. ;_;

I found a guy selling Lunar Silver Star Story Complete (Collector's Edition) for $45, but he won't sell it to me because he is a fucker.

Arriving and finding several machines knocked down over the weekend :)

the website "IRC at Work" does not, in fact, work at work.

Ah damn.

I'm not surprised, Websense has the bad tendency to be on the ball.

[Dracos]

Postbot still buggy.

[Anastasia]

I hate stomaches so damned much.

TAAACOO BEEEELLL! Argh.

The Anime Addventure deleted the entire collection of comments for a deleted post, the entire thread being one giant collection of awesome comedy. Especially because the guy just did -not- get what he was doing wrong. Nobody was even trying to be particularly subtle with him. Mind you, nobody bashed the obvious right into his face like a brick, but still, it shouldn't take that much effort to get what was being said.

Rather belated, but my life hasn't been particularly peaceful enough to post anyway:

So a week ago, I'm heading to the class I TA. Very little stress! No grades or assignments! I just sit there, force students to think by asking questions they'll never come up with, and lighten the load on the professor.

I get there, the Academic Affairs lady has found her way to our door, and is talking about the class being canceled. But wait! "The professor left instructions that the tutor could work with students on rough drafts and questions about the test. Is the tutor here?" "...Me."

So I led a class. I spent two hours skimming rough drafts, giving verbal feedback, and initialing papers so they'd get the points for bringing in a rough draft face to face with reams of lazy though not quite bitter students. I then had a minor anxious breakdown and went home.

Normally they don't pay me for the TAing, it's all about having recommendations and references and experience that makes an application glow like the sun, but they did pay me that day. I shouldn't be doing this, psychology isn't even my major, but I'm considered the secondary authority for all of this professor's psych classes.

Students are the bane of my academic experience. Truly.

If you don't hate them, you're doing something wrong.

Something broke in postbot again.

I've managed for my time in college to maintain a certain luxury, making half my classes once a week evening affairs so that I have a three day weekend free and clear.

It appears now that such will no longer be possible.

Good night, sweet prince~

Sis is in NY visiting friends, while parents went off on cruise through caribbean. Meanwhile, I'm stuck with work with increased traffic due to people having energy to go to work 'hour earlier' and november's lame atmosphere/weather, and having to wake up at 4am everyday to take a medical pill I need to take at least 2 hours before I eat breakfast. Normally I wouldn't mind being alone too much, heck, I'd generally almost enjoy enjoy it...but I've been feeling depressed a lot lately, work sucks a heckuva lot lately, and my body feels just shitty overall, so not a time to be wanting to be alone, y'know?

Sis was supposed to come back tomorrow, but she just called asking if I cared if she stayed a while longer, until next monday, given parents are out till sunday and she's well aware of how I've been feeling lately.

And well, I kinda -do- care, but I figure, I'm only really gonna be seeing her for 4-5 hours in the evening, while she's gonna end up being the one depressedly alone for 10 hours a day while I'm at work when she could be with her friends and such, right? Heck, we don't even really do all that much when we're together due to a lot of different interests. And really, what kind of big brother am I if I tell her to come home just to keep me company cause of how I've been feeling when I know she'll end up way more depressed while I'm at work? She went to NY in the first place because she was feeling lonely with not having friends in the area and such.

So I told her to go ahead and try to call the travel agency about that and that I'd pay for the extra fee for her as an "early christmas" gift if she can still manage to change her travel plans. Still, part of me hopes the call to the travel agency call doesn't pan out for her and she does come home, and the fact that I'm even thinking that just causes me to start feeling depressed again.

I can't get on the chatroom from the Java client or from mIRC, from home or school.

The gods of the interweb hate me.
