Well, Hell

Rhymes-with-The-Trouncer didn't think I was as funny as I thought I was. (As I AM, dammit.)
Whatever. He can suck it.

I did not tell him that before he drove my ass to the airport this morning, however.

In other news, TUESDAY NIGHT WAS MY LAST CLASS OF THE SEMESTER!! HALLELUJAH! PRAISE George W.!
Don't gotta go back until SIX WEEKS from today!! Yeehaw. It's a good thing, too, because next semester's the real shit. No more screwing around with classes. Next semester I'm supposedly coming up with a dissertation topic and writing my proposal (which is the first three chapters of the dissertation) and then somehow convincing my sponsor and committee that I totally know what I'm doing in my proposal defense. Shoot me now. We all can predict how bad this is going to be, right? Oh, and also I don't even have a sponsor OR a committee.

But let's not think about that right now.

Let's think about the fact that I made it to Austin today on time and with luggage intact, and already have lunchtime cheese enchiladas and a dinner party with friends this evening under my belt. And did I mention when I landed it was 67 degrees? Yay Austin!

Unrelated: I think my college roommate from senior year has quit being friends with me. Last year when she was visiting another friend in town, I flaked out of meeting up with them because it was raining and I was just getting home from work and had to go to class and blah blah blah. Since then, I didn't get a Christmas card (last year) or so far this year. A few months ago when she emailed everyone in her address book to announce that she had a new baby, she never responded when I wrote back a congratulations. And about a month ago I emailed her because I saw a mutual friend of ours, and no response. Have I been cut off???

This has never happened to me before. Or if it did, I didn't notice. Hmmm... I'm not sure why this bothers me since we barely spoke when I lived in Austin, but still. I like to be the kind of person who is perpetually adding friends, not losing them. I mean, hell - first I'm off the NYC blogger invite list; next I'm losing touch with friends...

If this means I have to start being nicer, I'm screwed.
