I'm studying today (history and calculus finals tomorrow), but I'm sure I'll be able to devote an hour or two towards L4D if we can get a group going.
Obviously, the semester is almost over; Monday is the last day for all students. I've wrapped up both of my chemistry classes, netting a 99.2% in my lab and what I hope becomes an A (or A+) in the lecture. I figure I'm on track for three As and a B this semester and I can live comfortably with that; after all, it's my money that I'm spending so don't I get to decide if my grades are good enough?
Next semester looks to be fun, with another chemistry lecture, a physics class on light/heat/electricity, and a class on mythology. I skimmed the reading list for mythology and the primary readings are all Greek (Eupipdes, Hesiod, and Homer). There's a text as well, but I'm curious to see what cultures we explore.
Work continues to be..well, exactly what you'd expect. My schedule remains all fucked up, the job is mindless, and it pays poorly. However, it is work. I'm not going to complain since it's good to have a paycheck coming in. Well, maybe I'll gripe a little if I have to clean puke from a stopped sink again (for the love of god, there's a toilet right there! A little courtesy, please!).
We're coming up on the anniversary of Matt's death. I'm still missing him terribly and for the past few weeks I keep finding myself trying to remember back what I was doing a year ago. I know today I went to work but took some time off in the afternoon to finish Christmas shopping. Went over to Matt and Mic's at night and had pizza and Strongbow with my family. The next day was our Christmas, and then a few days later it was all over. I'm happy I got scheduled off work for most of the 18th; I'd meant to request it off but ended up forgetting to.
