    Yes!

    The Fuck-Me-in-the-Ass assignment previously due tomorrow at 08:00 in my Fuck-Me-in-the-Ass-Class is now due on Monday at noon. I honestly had to choke back tears, right there in class.

So I shall be submitting my laptop to my own place of employment tomorrow later for a replacement sound card, methinks. <edit>Or not. The problem has ceased…</edit> I think I shall spend Saturday night (my only non-statically allocated time this weekend) blogging, reading blogs/sites, and writing e-mails to make up for my lack of real human contact and updates since last Sunday. This week was long…
