Well, as usual, I get stuck working with the dumbasses of the faculty.

One doesn't know what "restitution" means. Another doesn't know what "commence" means.

Just how am I supposed to write a 10 minute speech with these people when they don't know basic vocabulary, are quite the opposite of comma happy, and think it's a tragedy when a paragraph only contains one sentence.

And then they want to correct my section of the speech. Please ladies, just leave it alone. Don't touch it, don't look at it, don't even breathe on it! You might contaminate it and lead me to write things like, and I quote, "They will deal with the most important issues dealt with through their plan of the day." Say what, now?

And my lab partner doesn't know how to add percentages together to get a total percent. She feels the need to call me and whine about how she doesn't know how to do that part. She wants to ask the professor.

Ow. My head hurts.

I've just realized I haven't posted my latest mani yet. Not that anybody really cares, but it keeps me amused. When the snow is up to your earlobes, it doesn't take much, let me tell you. Hey, no giggling. I can bloody well hear you!

No pedi yet as I've gotten lazy, nobody sees my toes anyway, and karate-ka don't really care about how they look. I hope.

Maybe I should make an appointment...

Well, I'm proud to say I put my reading week to good use!

No, not reading.


Actually finished two - TWO - gamecube games: Paper Mario and Luigi's Mansion. That brings my total up to three games ever finished! In like 5 years. Whatevs! I did it, teehee!

Also spent some time drooling over the Wii. I totally kicked citrusboy's ass is a racing game. Obviously this is the console for me. Submit all donations to the cause at winnipeg_damsel@hotmail.com.

So we, citrusboy and I that is, decided to treat ourselves on Valentine's Day and thus we bought some very sticky, very gooey, very yummy Valentine's cupcakes.

Voila:
Now, as citrusboy pointed out, the heart just happens to say I'm your's. Is there ever an acceptable reason for writing I'm your's? Ever? Me thinks not. I think the bakery Chiquita was a teeny bit, um, overzealous in her application of the grammar rules. Wait! That's sexist! Maybe it was a guy...

On second thought, maybe not.
Which is my favourite Valentine of all time, by the way... How romantic!

BRRRRRRRRRRRR...*







*Holy shit, it's cold.

-50C you say?

Snow Day, I say! PA day! Wind Chill day! Whatever day, I'm not moving an inch away from home.

Speaking of, I almost got frost bite 2 days in a row now. Of course, we were stupid enough to have dinner reservations in -40C weather, but seriously?

Bundled up so that only my eyeballs were showing and my toes still managed to almost fall off after being out for only 5 minutes. Wow, did it ever hurt when they started to defrost. It was like a tractor had run over my feet! Ouch!

I just realized we have to go out for dinner tonight too! Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Good bye, toes. It's been nice knowing you.
