Today was a long day. i woke up at 7 AM (thats reaaal early for me) so I could do my stupid Lowell Online class schedule thing for next semester. They say it'll be up and running at 6 AM, and what do I find out, it's not up!!! I find out later, by word out mouth, that they delayed it and I'll be able to pick em tomorrow. That's the stupidest thing I ever heard. Nobody told our reg (or any other reg for that matter). They also have had at least 5 or 6 months to get this thing ready, which they've spent thousands of dollars on, only to have it not ready on the day it's supposed to be. How lame is that. I bet those programmers didn't start working on it until last night. What a loser school Lowell is for trying to get high tech. If you want to waste money, you might as well give each student a free $20 bill. At least that'll keep us happy. Then at night, I got to thinking about that stupid language lab guy, I think his name is Mr. Culter or Culver or something. he looks like the comic book guy in the Simpsons, and he also has his high nasal voice too. If you think you're getting money from me to support the language lab, think again bozo.

I've got a nice bunch of tests lined up. I have one Wednesday, Thursday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Then I'm free... All I need to do is survive and I'll be fine. However I don't know what i'll do for this weekend. At least Niners game is during church, so I won't be glued to the tv and stop studying on Sunday.

My dad has been under lots of family stress lately. My brother just came back from China, where he did some things that my dad requested. He went to our grandfather's (my dad's dad) grave, and I know this meant a lot to my dad since the family never goes there. Also,today my dad's uncle is in UCSF because he had another sezuire. He can't walk or talk now since he's so weak, and I think they had to remove a blood clot from his head. Also, now his mom (me and Dave's grandmother) has been in the hospital for the last...month or so in Canada. She had a stomach ulcer, but that's better. But now they found liver cancer. She was supposed to have surgery next week, but the doctors say the liver is too close to her stomach, and they don't want to risk the surgery (plus she's 80+ years old). So she won't have the surgery. They're giving her 6 months - 2 years. I guess that 2 years sounds like a real stretch, but I know how storng she is, so I won't rule anything out. My dad is going up to see her next week. But my summer vacation isn't for another 5 months. And I was planning to go to LA and meet up with Dave for Easter break. So hopefully I can see her one more time. 6 months.

Now some shoutouts:

Jeff: I feel you man, some people in this world are just...crappy. Together, we can take her down...

Cal: I picked up a Reche Caldwell SP Authentic 3 color patch on eBay for $20. Let me know what you get in your boxes.

Pat: Blog away my friend. I enjoy your vivid descriptions. And where was Wayne on Sunday....hiding I suppose.

Goodnight. Take care everybody.
