I'm a Squid with an Ocean

If you're not aware, there is this guy JON in my class. Well, I've had several classes with him and he's been incredibly annoying in ALL OF THEM. He has even annoyed some teachers to the point where they won't help him if he doesn't have a legit concern. Concern as in relevant to the class material they taught and it wasn't incredibly so out there in right field.

Anyway, my friend Darcie and I were tweeting about him during lecture today. It was quite fun, especially the part when Darcie laughed really loud as something I wrote (but by that point we migrated to facebook chat)

Enjoy! (But honestly, I'm keeping this convo for myself so I can laugh again later)

In other news, I would like to recommend this website for being awesome and posting links to opencourseware. Today I watched a programming lecture from MIT and it was AMAAAAAZING and I would recommend it to everyone. Whew! Long link but I wanted it to be noticed. I think I accomplished that.

I also noted that my "alma mater" Well, I went there for three semesters is signed up but haven't put up any material yet. Weird, I shall have to investigate and see if I can feel my soul dying from the university's content, or whether it was the campus or city itself that destroys souls. Yes, the Hellmouth is no longer in Sunnydale, CA but rather in fact in Eau Claire, WI. Look it up. Use the google!

This morning, incredibly sluggish and tired and blah.

Went to work with all of the sick people who go to CVS. Towards the end I did a lot of really stupid things and wasn't feeling very well. Two hours of bad feelingness brought me back to how was feeling on Tuesday. Aka, going backwards.

I went hope complaining about how I'm still sick and feeling horrible and told my mom to make sure I was awake at 4:20 so I could make it to my 5:00 class on time. Well, my parents thought that going to a doctor was a better alternative to going to school.

Before you could walk into the doctor's office, you had to use hand sanitizer, and people who had a cough or flu symptoms had to wear a face mask....aka me. I was told the following things by my doctor: I don't have the flu, I have a very tough virus and he doesn't have anything to make me feel better. I don't have a fever (I told you that), and I need to rest, drink fluids, and wait this out.

However, he did ask that I get bloodwork done to see if I have mono. So we'll see how that goes. Mono would explain why I'm so tiiiiiiiiiiired all the time.

Also, dad and I listened to Young Americans and While My Guitar Gently Weeps while driving home. Made the trip most excellent since dad was singing along to both.


I also still think that my mom believes that my brother and his frat "brothahs" created Beyonce's "Single Ladies" dance first. (They did it for a skit for winter carnival) So whenever she sees the Single Ladies dance or hears the song she exclaims "That's Paul's dance/song!" Just thought you should know.

Like the rest of the world (or so it seems) I've been sick. I've been sleeping a lot. Today I got done with economics early, went home to eat, sat down on the couch to chill and accidentally took a nap and completely slept through my logistics class. Whoops.
I usually have Economics on Tuesday mornings, but my teacher teaches like seven sections of Economics and said that if we miss a class we can make it up by attending one of his other sections. That was the case today as I was too sick for school yesterday so I went today instead.


If you're really curious on how poorly I've been feeling, I've been recording my symptoms complaining on twitter. I'm @NattytheMatty fyi.

Last night was fun though! (As in not fun) I was chatting on IM with Laura, and I had to blow my nose (like I seem to do every ten seconds) but my ear did something funky and I lost all of my equilibrium and couldn't find my center of gravity anymore (OH SO FUN) so I took the two steps and crashed on my bed and stayed there trying to pop my ear to stop the world from spinning. (OMG GUYS, LYKE I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!!!1!!)

Also last night my nose started bleeding from blowing my nose so much. SINCE WHEN DOES THAT HAPPEN EVER???? Freak of nature guys!

Monday night my school decided to send out a mass email to everyone explaining what H1N1 symptoms are and how to avoid to get sick/H1N1 this semester. Guess who had ALL THE SYMPTOMS OF H1N1 and was freaking out???? MEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! also: the email wanted to welcome us to a new semester at school. dudes, you're a little slow since we started in freaking AUGUST and you're telling us this over a month later?

All I know is that I can take more drugs in.....90 minutes, and I can't wait. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy drugs.



Lastly (AND MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!!!!) A very happy birthday to martoufmarty! Whooooo!!!!!

• 15:21 6 songs into Mika's new album and I love it! Rain is my new fave song (followed closely by Blame It On The Girls) iTunes 9 is weird. #

• 22:02 oops. I have a three page reaction paper to write in 14 hours to something I haven't read yet. Can it be done? Yay college! #
• 22:27 @unsedentary I just realized that I wrote a very similar paper a year ago (but don't have it anymore!) so I'll be fine. #

Last night's Psych was awesome! The episode was "Bollywood Homicide" and like all themed episodes, they had a special theme song. (Other examples are the song in Spanish, Christmas themed things...)



And so Natalie was amused for all time. I love it! :D

I know you know that I'm not telling the truth.....YES!

• 13:40 Cellcom Msg - Beg 9/23 u must snd TXT msgs w/ the full 10-digit #. Other than shrtcdes, msgs snt w/ less than 10-digi #
• 13:42 ...less than 10 digits will fail. Thanks cell service! Seriously who doesn't already have the full number in their phone? #
• 13:44 Oh! 7:50 AM appointment at the dentist was less than awesome. Poking gums with sharp metal things isn't cool. #
• 13:44 Biggest lie we tell: "Yes I read all the terms and conditions" Second biggest: "Yes I floss....sometimes...yes?" I'm an awful person! #
• 13:47 iTunes, I know I love "Bitter-Sweet" by Roxy Music, but I don't need to hear it three times in one day while on shuffle w/3500+ songs #
• 14:39 @RaincatcherWolf Terms and conditions: bit.ly/12tJyL @ 1:20 mark. Also Black Eyed Peas are awesome LIVE! #
• 14:49 Tonight, tonight! "I Hate So Much About the Things That You Choose to Be" The Office AND Community! Do it kids! #theoffice #
• 17:04 People in this class don't know how to use Macs (ugh annoying) and don't know what an underscore is. WHAT? YES. #
• 18:47 going crosseyed from this class already! I want to watch The Office, Community, Fringe, and Project Runway already! (not at once tho!) #
• 18:48 Luckily the sweet sweet music that is Ben Folds is keeping me sane...for now. Really cold in this room too. I need a sweater! #
• 18:55 I couldn't be a vampire. I've been tasting blood (cause of my trip to the dentist) on and off all day. Ew. This gum tastes like minty blood. #

• 00:41 Rufus Wainwright was fantastic on @jimmyfallon tonight and sang my favorite song ever: The Art Teacher #
• 00:58 I'm nervous about something but I have no idea what. Such is life! #
• 01:01 For being a girl and "not knowing a lot about football," I did very well on my week 1 NFL pick 'ems: 12 wins 2 losses. Ka-Chow! #
• 01:20 nervous has turned into really happy, I'm easy to please I guess. #
• 21:30 Last night I had an AMAZING dream. Now I'm trying to write it out. Let's see how that goes! (Hopefully it won't sit on my HD) #
• 21:53 @RaincatcherWolf Hard to describe w/140 chars, but it was about the lives and drama of a high profile political family like the Kennedy's. #
• 21:57 @RaincatcherWolf and when I say Kennedy's, I mean the powerhouse 1960's Kennedy with classic style, glamour and allure--not today's. #
• 22:03 @RaincatcherWolf I know right? It was very detailed and it was like I already knew the characters. I hope I don't screw it up with my words! #

I'm still not done with my homework.

Granted, I haven't found anyone who finished the section I was stuck on. I'll just turn in what I got and be done with it. Boausfkajslf


I'm also all hot, sweaty, and nervous feeling from the Packer's game. It was sooooo gooooood but sooooooo close. Barbre needs to shape up if he wants to keep his starting position. Seriously, letting that many hits on Rodgers? YOU NEED TO PROTECT THE QB!!!!


OTHER NEWS:
I keep hearing loud bangs outside. Strange because the game ended long ago so what's with the noise. I don't see anything from my window, but it's surburbia and I'm probably hearing noises from miles away. Still weird and wtf?


Back to football, did you know that for my nflfans pick 'ems, I'm 10-2? (Titans and Cards being my only losses) Tomorrow I'll be a Pats (gjaosjf why?) and Charger's fan (FOR THE NIGHT ONLY) and try to see if I can win pick 'ems! (prob not, but still)

ETA: This sums up the game pretty well. (And only needs two gifs!)
