banner day or yay I'm done and never let me have a shopping cart

I AM DONE WITH WORK UNTIL JAN.!!!!!!

Grades are in. WHEE. And can you believe the student center sent me someone to advise today? We're not even supposed to BE there other than to put in grades. They wanted me to sign him into my overfull class without any prereqs. I spoke to the guy (non-trad) and asked what he wanted to do and that's the one thing with older students, they're usually easier to handle, not as much attitude. I put him in the prereq class instead.

Then I hit the laundromat and instead of sitting in the library (which was a freakshow today, probably because it was freaking 60 degrees) I hit Wally World for some crap I forgot to buy (still forgot to buy saline). Let me say this: I hate shopping. I hate shopping Wally most of all and I MOVE when i'm in there. I hate slow shoppers. They make me insane.

So...I rammed an Amish kid. Gee, I felt bad about that one but we came around corners and boom. Next aisle over, I nail his dad's cart (and bruise my belly on the handle of the cart). I manage to get to the other side of the store, come around the corner and bam, slam into a student (I failed her). Sigh. Go into the frozen food and get T-Boned by my friend, the Indian Math prof. I'm lucky to have survived. As long-term friends know I HAVE broken toes running my own self over in this wal-mart.

Maybe one of those LITTLE ones with two tiers that grocery stores have. I'm not too dangerous with those. The big ones? Watch out. It's not that I'm going too fast, it's that I'm distracted!

Congratulations on a well deserved break and holiday!

The real world is overrated!

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
it truly is

Congratulations on surviving the semester and grading. Is there perhaps a less trafficked and less dangerous shopping center anywhere near you? Or can you go in full plate armor?

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
actually the walmart IS it. i should prehaps pay attention to the real world and not the one inside my head

Yeah for being done! Boo for cart torture.

Well, *you're* one person I want to avoid while shopping!

YAY to holiday break!! And I see you are sharing our 'unseasonal' weather *bah!*

[identity profile] evil-little-dog.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 12:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Bake all day. Oh, wait....

i'm going to take Naru for his first check up only 1500 miles late...i suck

[identity profile] evil-little-dog.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm at 49,000 miles and still need to do my 30,000 miles check up on Connor. *siiiiigh*

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
it got cold again. Pick a damn temperature and stay there. the bouncing around gives me headaches, literally

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2009-12-15 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
thanks

i can't be trusted

Me too - and sinus gunk and a million other unpleasant things. It's tough having bi-polar weather (reminds me too much of my parents...).

nods nods

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2009-12-16 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
nods but that's not quite as bad. The initial oil in cars is the 'break in' oil and it's not quite the same as regular weight oil

[identity profile] evil-little-dog.livejournal.com 2009-12-16 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
Ahhhh. Gotcha.

[identity profile] ozma914.livejournal.com 2009-12-16 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
You'd run me right down -- I'd be too slow for you!

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2009-12-16 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
or leave you behind
