First off, I need to apologize for all those who have fallen in war. Today is Veteran's/Remembrance Day. May your souls rest in peace, and may you forgive me for forgetting what today is. Thank you for your service to your nation(s). May the current generation of men and women live up to your high standards of honor and courage.

Chris: and if any soccer moms park behind you, just bang them

Me: RAM THEM UNTIL THEY GIVE UP!!!

Aye, we'll teach those soccer moms to stay away from us!


Ugh...now I feel sick...Russ just made chocolate cookies (a much welcome surprise for everyone) and shoved three in front of me. So what do I do? I immediately ram them into my mouth and chew. Maybe it was too much for my stomach at this point. I'm still eating them though, they're just so good. They definitely hit the spot. So sick....*pops another in mouth*...mmmmmm.....I hate this...can't resist...

Damnit, I just ran out of cookies to eat. I feel like I need to throw up...Need more cookies...The epic battle of the hour! Who will win? The cookies? Or Matt's brain? Tune in next week for the answer! Or the next time Russ makes cookies. Whichever comes first.

I am probably not going to do my stress homework tonight. The first problem was described in class as "simple and straight forward". Simple/straight forward my ass! To solve the problem, you need to do a step before it, but to do the step before doing the problem, you have to solve the problem? WHAT THE FUCK?!? I'm starting to see why Russ hated this guy a long time ago. Great to talk with in person, but a complete asshole on quizzes and homework. I can't wait to get to fucking #2. I did look at the original assignment (only #3), and I'm glad he changed it to the two problems...I think I would have killed him or something. That would have been probably 5-6 hours of work on a SINGLE problem.

In other news, Russ has taken the lead in our billiards contest, 15 games to 13. I held the lead 11 games to 10, but sucked horribly the next two trips to the campus center, and so now he's got the lead. I haven't hit anyone with a flying ball yet this year, so thats a good sign of improving my calculation of required strength. Though hitting Bill on the break last year was hilarious (after we made sure he was ok, I mean, I completely smashed the ball, and it flew off the table right into his chest...not exactly the most safe thing to go through). But he was ok, and so we laughed. And I got a "fuck you!" from Bill. I don't know what he's bitching about, I mean, he DID get ball in hand. I'd have thought it was worth the price. Evidently he needs to get his priorities straight.

http://www.addictinggames.com -- site with a bunch of really fun games (like Curveball), and some not so fun games. Its worth a look-see, though.

I'm skipping my stress analysis homework. Not worth the effort. I'll go to his office hours tomorrow and ask what the hell I'm supposed to do.

Also have to arrange a place to be interviewed for the Global Perspective Program. First choice: Melbourne, Austrailia. I forget what my second choice was, probably London, England.

And I was just advised to marry an ugly woman. Thanks for the confidence in me and my abilities. Oh well. I do have a welt under my eye from a face shot I took last night...or was that on the other side of the face? Weird...should go away in a few days in any case.

Take care all, good night.
