Back to Skewlism mixed troglodytism


Whooo!!!! Back in skewl. Actually, I'm pretty excited to be back in skewl... tempered with a bit of I miss my summerism. Really. The stuff I'm supposed to be learning is actually kind of cool. Right now we are playing a fun game in class where our professors name a medication and tell what it does. For example, a selective alpha-1 antagonist. This puts me on the edge of my seat as I sit there and think, "Hmmm, what is an alpha-1 and what does it do?... and then what would happen if I made it mad." I can't help but feel that if I had only learned this last year, things would be easier now.

I'm also moving into a new place. On my lease it actually says that I, as the tenant, have a responsibility not to allow rock bands or musical instruments into my house. I think it is time for me to finally learn to play guitar...

On another note, the Ride for Jim jerseys are DONERS and have been sent off to our manufacturer. This means I can stop redesigning those things. I'm going to try to attach the final design to this, but I can't find a hammer so wish me luck.

Now that those are done, I get to the business of bilking friends and acquaintances for money. If you hate cancer enough to help fund a scholarship for cancer research, follow this link and empty your pockets... If you want to cycle 70 miles with me to show how much you hate cancer, go to rideforjim.org.
