First: Jim's back from Iraq, safe and sound!

Recap of the night of the 28th:

Did Dynamics to Claudio, and we both were getting irritated over the fact that lecture lags behind homework by more than a week. Not to mention we were frustrated over the number of problems he assigned for homework.

Once I got back, I played some Warcraft III with my roommates.

Then I had the good fortune to get a call from Jaenen, and we talked for a while. Great to hear from her again. Not sure if I'll be able to say hello this weekend or not, but I'm going to try. Good luck tomorrow!

Went to bed after I got off the phone because I was pretty tired.

29th: Ummm...forget what I did, other than study dynamics outside with Claudio and copying down some solutions from the manual. Oh, right, ate a fuckload of food. I feel like friggin' Santa Claus. Starting to look like 'im, too, in one day! Even got the grey beard!

Today:

Dynamics today was pretty common sense. I can't believe I paid $70 for that hour of class...no...not even an hour! Fifty minutes! In Geology, I found out that the average on the lab exam was 55...putting me 15.5 points ahead of class average. One more exam to go in that course. Statistics was actually interesting today. I don't know why, because we were discussing micro somethings or others (fell asleep at this point?). Anyways, it culminated in an optional homework assignment that is worth lots of bonus points. I don't know how this will get incorporated into his research, though.

Now I'm going to go get ready to go home, because I'd like to help Nick out on his Eagle Project this weekend.

I want to post more stuff, but I do have to go get stuff set to go.

Ho ho ho. Merry F*cking Christmas!
