swap_recipes. Stalkers, that goes for you too, even if you can't cook - for with recipes, you may yet learn.
On Tuesdays, I leave home at 7:30. I get home at 10:00. Ante and post meridiem, respectively. You could almost be forgiven for calling the day...
long.
And so, it came to pass that I've reexamined my caffeine options (since Fruity Oaty Bars are hard to find). Apparently, the campus café charges 50c extra for a double shot. 50c! All, however, is not lost, for I have found a Vendor of Jolt. Yay Jolt.
In book news, I'll be making anapathy_books post or two tomorrow, because I've been terribly disorganised about webstuff for nearly a week now. Additionally, I have a new book - Niccolò Machiavelli's The Prince. Which, I'm sure, some netfolk would like to rename 'OMG teh PrinXorZ!'
It will, I think, be the second-cheapest book I buy all year, at a lofty $9. It's been beaten, thus far, by the $2 citation style guide for my educational institution.
Which neatly brings me to the day's classes!
Today's foray into learning of the Information Industry led to a long and circuitous argument over exactly what constitutes 'print'. Oh well. This happens sometimes, apparently in conjunction with it being a four-hour class (!).
This contrasts with my class on multimedia Stuff™, which today I'll call 'Electrofried Redux', mostly since the homework for this week was to find out what to do for someone who gets electrofried. This goes right back to last week's sage advice:
Don't. Get. Electrofried.
We also learned of CDs and overhead projectors. Most of the stuff on CDs was the teacher poking fun at the textbook, since everyone, these days, knows what to do with a CD. Most of the stuff on OHPs was pulling one to bits, putting it back together, focusing it and discussing the relative merits of pen trays on projectors.
Still! To borrow from Empire,
swap_recipes. Or else.
