3 Months of Busy-ness

I have a spare 15 minutes, so let's see how far I can get....

Another year, another fantasy football season that sees my team having unbelievably bad luck and all my opponents' players just happening to have career weeks against me. Also, just like last year, a lot of my opponents' players who have amazing performances against me end up getting hurt the following week (exhibit A: Michael Vick). This week my opponent had both Jay Cutler and the Giants defense, so something had to give. Unfortunately it was poor Jay's head. As a Bears fan, last night was a miserable game to watch....

Engineering school has reached new levels of ruthlessness. I'm constantly working and having to shun family, friends, free time, creative pursuits, and sanity.

My technological annoyances continue. Oh the woes of being a broke college student...it now appears that my creaky old laptop is too old for further software updates (this includes Itunes...apparently I'm stuck with version 9.2 from now on)...which also means I cannot update the software on my Iphone. (I'm on version 3.1.3 of that...) I could potentially upgrade the software from another computer, but apparently that would mean losing everything on my phone - including pictures (all 1000 of them). As my creaky old laptop is incredibly slow and short on memory, an attempt at transferring my pictures to my computer is no simple task. What I really need is a fairy-god-mother to show up at my porch door with a brand new Mac laptop (and Iphone G4 while she's at it) and a case of Newcastle. And since we're asking for really cool things to be delivered to me - how about my lovely girlfriend, too?

Alright, my allotted free time is up. The Engineering Monster is coming....
