Like Christmas in....September...

First all the cool stuff came over the weekend and today, I got a book I was really looking forward to (On healing touch), the sheets and mattress pad got here (thank you UPS for leaving it on the door and NOT ringing and the touch of you pausing your cell phone call long enough to ask 'you ARE D-3, right?' was perfect) and of course the bed and MATTRESS!

Yay! It's soft. I can't wait to sleep on it. (pictures coming tomorrow)It does take up a little too much of the room (that's okay), it's pretty. It even has four posters (now to find the man to tie to it) Whee!

Downsides - while I got the old bed rails unscrewed (I believe women should have their own tools and have stocked the house accordingly) I don't have the strength to bull them apart. Gah! I need to get this down. Even if I were just hauling them to the dumpster, this is unwieldy. But I want to take them to Goodwil (they're in perfect shape)grrrr. Maybe I can drag it onto the porch when the neighbor men are out there and they can help.

Gave my first exam today and of course in their infinite wisdom campus computing removed the drive we use to run the scantron software...um dudes WHY? I mean just WHY? for the love of god, we need that. Supposedly things will be fixed by tomorrow. I Hope so. I'm giving another exam on Wednesday.

Feh. You're more nerdy than me, and I was pretty damn nerdy. Now I'm all jealous and stuff. ;)

I love days when all my packages come at once. Those are awesome.

It even has four posters (now to find the man to tie to it)

Haha, YES. *gets pretty visions of naked, helpless bishies in her head*

i didn't do so well on the computer stuff (big shock. What the hell is Ada?)

yes, naked helpless bishies are always good news

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

ada is a programming language. not very commonly used though.

yep, i'll take a couple naked helpless bishies to go, plus a couple of fruity drinks and some chocolate. :D

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah I figured as much but wasn't sure.

those are good additions

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

now i just have to figure out actually acquiring them. :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

good point

[adeliedreams.livejournal.com]

Ada was the "bulletproof programming language". (translated: obsessive compulsive programming language) It was required for any programming projects that were funded by the Department of Defense for a very, very long time.

Nowadays, it's mostly used for maintaining or translating those decades of government code, and for a few highly specialized "1 bug = 400 people smacking into the ground" areas like airplane navigation.

I am now jealous.

Also yay for new bed and boo to the lack of scantroning equipment. I used to love running stuff through the scantron machine back in high school. Once I got to college, the scantron tests stopped. And so did the easy ones. I wonder if there's a corrolation?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

we still use ye ol' scantron. thank god, my classes are too big to hand grade that many (now in grad school we didn't have them)

and you shall worship at my feet, my queen.

Four poster bed? Uh-oh, Maes, Roy, run!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

those old track ribbons will have done me some good as I run them down

[mulzrule.livejournal.com]

You'll need it too for those boys. *devious grin*
Although they might enjoy it. XD

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm sure they would

[0-mother-0.livejournal.com]

YAY! So glad your new bed is there - Sweet dreams, baby! You will sleep like a proper princess now :)

Oh, and can you believe, that test claims that I am a 'cool nerd god'. *phffft* I don't know what they're smoking, but...
