I have done everything possible to procrastinate from writing this essay about the ethical ramifications of the RCMP not being interested in chasing down individual pirates. My room is spotless, the dishes are done, my laundry would be done if everyone else in res wasn’t procrastinating too, I took a friend out for lunch, got my Rock Band disc replaced, picked up a sweet lunchbox for $4 (since the accessory kit was missing the headphones and charger), read other school books over dinner and talked to everyone I know online. Oh, and got much further along in redesigning my sites (partially for in-class credit this time). Still no essay writing though.
I had lent out Rock Band to various people here since I needed to get some of my own work done and I also wasn’t gonna play it while I was at home so it made perfect sense to me. Unfortunately, one friend has a 360 that eats discs. Oops. So when I had people over the other day to play we all had to avoid certain songs or the game would crash and I’d occasionally get the white “please insert a 360 disc” screen on reboot. I was not amused, to be sure. However, all’s well that ends well and I can resume my rocking career… right after I finish this essay and take part in the volleyball playoffs tonight. It’s a little after six now and the game is before midnight or something foolish like that so, in theory, I can make some serious headway if not finish outright before then. I don’t have any classes tomorrow so that extra time cushion has spoiled me into relaxing more than I should be. If I don’t finish this essay tonight I will blow my perfect record this semester of making sure I finish things the day before they are due. I didn’t care about the ethical ramifications of Canada’s online pharmacies either and I still got an 87 so I should focus here and pull it together so I can just game and party on the weekend.
<Me> hey, did you know that glasses only work when you wear them?
<K> the hell you say.
