*sings*Oh when the week… keeps rollin’ on… oh when the week keeps rollin’ on… oh how I’d love to be done but the week keeps rollin’ on… *stops singing*
Test on Friday. Homework due next couple days. Yucky. Last night I was up late doing homework and talking on the phone. Homework = blah, phone = good stuff.
The sun is still hiding. And now so am I. *poof*
Microsoft is currently developing its newest version of Office software. The strange twist is that it will not be offering compatability with versions of Windows other then Windows 2000 (with Service Pack 3) or Windows XP. My theory: they want to force you to upgrade your operating system software if you have any desire to stay current (thus giving them massive profits). Office 11 is also supposed to dramatically increase compatability with XML formatted documents which will be a major change especially for businesses. One of Microsoft’s stated reasons for not supporting older version of Windows is “inherent insecurity” of the older Windows OSes. The Inquirer stated the following in their article about this:
We don’t seem to remember Microsoft telling us that Windows 98 was “inherently insecure” when we bought it. We don’t even remember the slogan “Start Here - for inherently insecure computing”.
And how.
I am first. In line. Gimme! No, I have money. See… hey! givitback. thief! thief! come back here wit my money. I need my chickin.
So the little red light on top of the capitol building is blinking. It’s dark and hazy outside. And I’m also posting after midnight again. (Bad habit, if you ask me.) To(yester)day, I got some CPRA stuff done, bible study, a bit of studying, and a hair cut. Tracy came by after lunch and did some cutting, trimming, evening, blending, and other movement related to scissors. At the end, my hair is much shorter again and looking pretty spiffy. (Thanks, Tracy!)
After CPRA tonight, went to Crescent Moon (yes, the place where my story about Girl at the Moon is based). Misty and Crystal were there so I talked with them a while before doing a bit of studying. Amy was working like usual and Jake also came tonight. It was good talking to Misty and Crystal. It’s been good getting to know each of them better seeing them on most Mondays.
Now I’ve got a paper to finish related to a movie I watched in my International Relations class. *sigh* Back to work! *vanishes*
Tonight was country swing dancing night. It was fun. I danced with many girls. I’m getting better at doing a move called “Table Top” and also just getting a bit faster. Some girls are pretty fun to dance with since they’ve been there every time I have and we know each other’s styles decently well (Tracy and Rachel, por ejemplo). When that happens, it’s fun to go really fast. Sometimes though, fingers slip away or you accidentally run into somebody else (whoops!). On the way back home, we dropped Frank off at his fraternity. Jake let Tracy and I out to go see Phil in his dorm. Turned out Phil was sleeping, so we just walked back to Pound while talking on the way. Tomorrow, Tracy is going to cut my hair. Cost Cutters = $15. Tracy’s Hair Salon = $0. I’m saving (fifteen minus zero….. oh!) fifteen dollars.
One test this week, some other homework and quizzes. I’ve got a lot to read to be ready for the test. This is the second test in World History and I need to do better on this then the last one to try to boost my grade from a C up to at least a B. This week and next will be crucial in determining the outcome of my grades for the semester. Time to git in gear.
(If I ever finish this roll of film and get it developed, I’ll have some pictures of The Missouri Road Trip and… whatever else I’ve taken pictures of so far this semester.)
