A Strange Life

So I'm pretty sure I got drunk-dialed by my mother earlier this afternoon. She called from NC, and rambled somewhat incoherently at me for about ten minutes, largely about how much she missed me and how I should come to a family reunion again one of these years (I avoid them whenever possible), and I was left with the distinct impression that she was well into a bottle of wine or something. Anyway! I keep meaning to update, but apparently I have the attention span of a goldfish on speed, which is to say about two seconds. Unwired is finally out, and it's freaking awesome, but I will keep my nerding to myself, as I don't think there are any other SR players reading this XD; Played some D&D 4th Ed, and had more fun than I thought I would. It's become a bit MMO-like, but I think generally in good ways. In the real world, the weather is finally summer-like, and I've got the first few strawberries from my garden, which have been delicious. Work is still crazy and people are getting stressed out and cranky, but we're hiring new people right now, which should help. Started doing fall course selection today, and wound up wanting to beat my head against a wall in frustration, because apparently the UBC Biology department is full of stupid (although I realized this when they didn't blind-copy the recipients on the major acceptance email - the list of e-mails was longer than the body text). I have a week before I register still, though, so I'll get it all sorted out. I'm trying to go for an English Lit minor, which means of course lots of classes with only one offering time, which complicates things. Ah well.
