Today Was The Best Day EVER!!!! 9/09/2004 05:59:00 PM

And I mean that in every ounce of sarcasm I have in me.
(which some of you know is ALOT)

So this morning I woke up late. Not a big deal. I guess my alarm clock fell on the floor in the middle of the night, and now only gives me 2 digits. Like right now its 5: 9 But like I really needed to do laundry this morning, I only needed nice clothes for my speech in one of my classes.

So I had 3 papers that I needed to print to hand in today. So I e-mail them to myself, so I can go over to the lab early and print them. On my way I stopped to set up my video, and make sure everything worked before class, and just leave it ready and go first (for my speech). I did this yesterday, to make sure I knew how to run the equipment. But for some reason today, it won't let me use the full screen. So eventually I gave up and restarted the computer, knowing it wouldn't help (and I said this to some class mates who were there half and hour early) but it did. So I was like, Yay! But then Cory wanted to use the computer to make sure his worked. And I yelled and said that no one could touch it.

So I go downstairs to the lab, to print off my speech on my notecards, my official copy with work cited to hand in, my revised paper from last week--for extra credit, and my Mary Poppins paper for my Mass Communications class.

Well, none of my attatchements open. I started freaking out more. Eventually somehow my official copy of my speech with work cited, decided to open so I printed that, since it was the one that I most needed, and ran back up for class. Unfortunately because my notecards wouldn't print, I had to stand up there like an idiot with my 4 page paper (which is really only like a 8 min, speech (requirement 5)and proceed to fumble and be nervous after all that has gone wrong today. My video works though. So I tell my teacher that I couldnt print my draft, and ask him I can bring it to him right after. And he says, sure, as long as it gets to me before 4:30

Then after class, I run back to the lab to print my Mary Poppins crap, which works, and rush to class (that starts right after my previous, so I had no time to get back to my other teacher), and I remember that this class, doesn't get over untill 4:20...so I would have to haul to fix my other paper, and get it in on time. Plus I had to pick up some stuff for work at 4:15, and be at work at 4:30.

So after class, I run, and run, get my paper in on time, get to the place to pick up the sandwhiches and stuff that were supposed to be ordered, can't find them, make some phone calls, the order DID get made, so they get me the stuff I need, and I rush off to work. I get to work and upon trying to unlock the cooler (where we lock the cash box) I find that apparently last night, I put the lock on backwards....so I try to unlock it...impossible, the key gets stuck, and is now bent. So I go back to my dorm to call my boss, he's not there, so I try to leave a voice-mail but his inbox is full, and it wont let me. So I wander around the University Center looking for him.

Find him, talk to him, he tells me to go to Public Safety and get someone to break the lock, and pick up a loaner from the fitness center. So I do that, go to Public Safety...maintenance is off for the day, but they tell me to go to the Pool Center, and they have a bolt cutter. SO I do that. And borrow it. I go back to the snack stand (by the way everywhere I've been running around on campus are all like 3 blocks apart from each other)So I'm walking down the street with giant bolt cutters in my hand.

And I see like 8 of those freaky squirrels and they're taunting me with their big mouse ears, and their weird tails,so I was tempted to just cut off their stupid dog-tails with my bolt-cutters. Then they would look like Stubs (remember him? One of my fondest memories from Golf...I miss Stubby)

Anyway, I can't cut the lock off of the cooler, becuase it's a very unique lock, and the one I have would only work if I had a chain, to hold the door closed. So I walk back to my dorm, and up all those fricken stairs for the 40th time in half an hour and walk towards my room yelling, "DOES ANYONE HAVE A CHAIN!!!" Practically no one is home, but Abby pokes her head out, see's me with my giant bolt-cutters and freaks out (haha--the one positive thing--and growin up with my mom, its impossible to not find something positive-- about the whole day was this)

So now, I am sitting at my computer typing this, while I wait for a chain to magically appear, and my computer just freaked out, and now everything is huge. I have no idea what the hell happened, but I just spent the last 40 mins, trying to fix it. It's not the display size or the Internet font size..I tried restarting, and everything imagineable, and so just when I thought it was over, the day keeps getting "better"....this really sucks.
