But It's True, I Am Not The Same Since I Met You

Sleepy.

I don't think anything remarkable's happened this week. Although, I've corrupted our entire floor with Sim City 2000. I found the game while I was scanning through my external hard drive because I didn't remember what was on it, and Sam saw me playing so I put it on a disc for him, and then he gave it to someone, and they gave it to someone...and now about half our floor is playing Sim City 2000 instead of doing homework. For the first time, not only have I effectively procrastinated, I've effectively led to the procrastination of an entire group of people. =)

I think I know what I'm going to do next year. I was looking at Lawrence, until Martin told me that his cousin rents a house in La Crosse and we could pretty easily get it because he's related to the guy. The catch being of course that I would need to transfer to La Crosse. So...I started looking at UWL. The school I decided last year was at the bottom of my list. The school that was too big, too public, and too close.

I think I like it.

There's nothing -here- that isn't offered -there- and except for the radio show I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to have to give anything up (which is okay, because I'm rapidly running out of cool new songs to play on the radio.) Plus, it's a good $20,000 cheaper, and I've ocme to the realization that if I stay here I'll spend at least the next 10 years struggling to pay off my student loans. And I'm ready to give up dorm life--I have some awesome suitemates but I'd like to go back to having my own room. And a kitchen. Plus, I practically lived with Martin this summer anyway. I'm not sure who we'd get as a third yet [or if we'd need one] but I don't think that would be a problem.

Of course, this all seems just a little too convenient, right? Melissa's probably going to La Crosse and all of a sudden I decide I want to too? Honestly, I wasn't even considering UW-L until I found out I could rent a house with Martin. And I've been giving it a lot of thought, and I really think I would still want to do this even if she wasn't going there. Why has nothing [I hope] to do with her, only how soon.

And if I turn out to be wrong, I can always transfer back. So we'll see what happens.

Also; NaNoWriMo starts really really soon and I'm terrified.

Oh, and apparantly for the first time in a recent survey, the majority of respondants thought that the Iraq war was the "wrong thing to do." Well, yeah. I thought that was about common knowledge by now.

Uhm..."I told you so" ?
