6:21 pm	Writer's Block: Wake up and smell the coffee Given the choice, would you rather sleep in or eat a delicious breakfast? Is there any food you love so much that you'd wake up at dawn or travel a great distance just to eat it? View 1427 Answers I would get up to eat the gigantic, home-made biscuits and raspberry jelly in a squeeze bottle at Dot's Diner in Boulder ANY DAY...otherwise, it would have to depend on the time/place/food/how I was feeling/how long I'd been out the night before...

9:24 pm	Writer's Block: Single pride day Given that we're less than a week out from Valentines, how do you feel about the approaching holiday? Will you participate or abstain?

4:53 pm	I've realized... that I'm REALLY gonna miss Fred when he leaves us next semester. He's been responsible for a good chunk of my education here at UNC, and unbeknownst to him, he's become something of a mentor to me...much more of an advisor, and seemingly more concerned with my education than my ACTUAL advisor is... today, me and Sierra had a talk with him about an Anthro Club project, and he said that he'd be willing to come in on weekends if we needed, and that he'd do anything to help us. I brought up the fact that I'm applying for that internship and asked if I could use him as a reference, and he looked at me kinda shocked and said "OF COURSE! bring your resume to me when you're done with it and we'll make it rock solid..." seriously Fred...it's not just me that's upset to see you go...most of the archaeo kids are pretty cut up about it. I'm pretty sure that we're all gonna throw him a party before the year is out. I consider myself EXTREMELY lucky to have been his student for the past 2.5 years and employee for a semester, and frankly, I'm surprised that he wasn't wooed by another university before now... here's hoping he's still involved with the North Park project, I mean, he did ask Christy and I to come up for a week to help him teach the students how to properly do field paperwork. Also, if he was serious about going on the Dinosaur dig and the fact that he wants me and Christy to come, I'll jump at the chance. gotta defend my complement before he goes too...I can't face the whole faculty alone... *sigh* Current Mood: contemplative Current Music: Judge Judy (Comment on this)
4:34 pm	Writer's Block: Roommate from Hell Have you ever had a nightmarish roommate? What made you incompatible? How did you eventually resolve your conflicts? View 974 Answers my freshmen room-mate was such a bitch. no matter how nice I tried to be...she'd steal my food/drinks, talk about me behind my back with the girl we shared a bathroom with and was generally just not nice. I moved across the building about halfway into the semester. had a room to myself and the girl who I shared a bathroom with there was awesome and we really clicked :D Current Mood: cheerful Current Music: Judge Judy (Comment on this)

5:04 pm	LOL pita man... SO. I just went to get a pita 'cause I felt the need for one. the dude working proceeded to hit on me and then ask about school. he asked my major. I said anthropology...he goes "oh...dinosaurs, right?" *cringe* "haha no, the study of humans..." "oh...I was way off then..." "actually, my emphasis is archaeology..." "ohhh...so what're you gonna be?" *beat* "an archaeologist...going on digs, working in a museum..." "neat" he asked about jobs and stuff, and I told him about the internship I was applying for and he wished me luck, which was nice... and then he gave me my pita and told me to "come back and see us" I gave a non committal wave and left. he was kinda cute, but also like, 30...too old for me. it was funny.

6:46 pm	a dream... while being driven back up to school this afternoon, I fell asleep. this song (not the best sound...) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fY58U0Ny7rk was on the radio, and I dunno why, but it lead me to dream about the Firefly 'verse... so, my OC from a fic I'm writing and Mal were trapped in a crumbling building and slowly being buried by rubble, and Mal kept repeating "we're getting stronger every day..." over and over while shielding my OC. and then I woke up. ...yeah.

2:18 pm	Writer's Block: School daze Did you remain at the same school(s) or transfer to a number of different schools growing up? How did your early educational experiences impact your self-esteem and confidence? Submitted By scarletpeonies View 1019 Answers I only moved before I was of school age, but have spent most of my life in Boulder, CO. I went to one elementary school (Columbine), one middle school (Centennial), one high school (Boulder), and so far, only one undergrad college (Northern Colorado)...I mean, I've been here for three years... I liked going to school with people I'd known nearly all my life, and it did boost my confidence, 'cause anywhere I went, I had friends.

11:24 am	*grumble* grr. I hate when people talk (with confidence) about things they have no idea about. for example. my Colorado History prof was talking about the ancients who were here ages ago. she was talking about the "Arrow Heads and Spear Heads" that they used to hunt the "buffalo". ok. first off, it's PROJECTILE POINTS. not arrow heads. those are the cheap reproductions made for tourists. if you need to differentiate between spears and arrows, you say "Projectile points and SPEAR points". second. buffalo live in Asia. in N. America, we have Bison. around the time of the ancients, it was Bison Antiquis. madam, did it ever OCCUR to you to ask Fred or Bob about these things before this lecture? or to think that you might just have an Archaeology student show up in one of you classes? guess not. her lecture made me want to rip off my ears. I cannot STAND hearing archaeological terms being butchered. it's like an English major hearing someone speak badly. She then proceeded to blither on about "Mesa Verd" (Mesa Verde, woman...) and the people who lived there. All cases I've ever heard about lean towards sudden abandonment. There were perfectly good sandals found there, and people who spent so much time make things like this wouldn't just leave it on a whim unless they had to. THEN. oh ho ho. she talked EXTENSIVELY about Pot Hunters. that was the real OUCH moment for me. she was going on and on about how "these people need to return these artifacts" (well duh) "because that would make everything OK"...lady, ever heard of CONTEXT? yeah. important. I REALLY wanted to get up and walk out, but that would have been impossibly rude. next time, I hope she talks with the Archaeologists who are directly upstairs before saying things like she should. /rant Current Mood: annoyed Current Music: Wife Swap on TV (2 Comments |Comment on this)

12:31 pm	oh Jim Wanner I had him last year for Forensics, and I've got him now for Origins of Music and Language... the man loves to bust out with FUCK at random points...but today, cursing had to do with lecture. he was running around the classroom yelling "you fucking fucks!" at the top of his lungs to demonstrate a point...and the "director" of my department was sitting there with her mouth hanging open. She decided to audit the class for no real reason. I think Jim's gonna go out of his way to make her feel uncomfortable LOL oh Jim <3 Current Music: Spongebob (Comment on this)
