At work again.
… it’s so silent… I love the study time, but fear for the rush that will come and consume me, lone HD operator, at any moment… Boo DISCO II, yay catnaps, boo novel-reading. Actually, just “boohiss” will suffice for this whole week.

Best. Day. Ever.
Several of the school’s servers went down this morning. I’m working Help Desk from 10:00 to 13:30. Holy fuck this is annoying.

Oh, the Agony
Last night, I joined some girls on my floor and a women’s fraternity on a outing to a place called Pumpkin Works. Pumpkin Works is a plaze with various mazes (and other things like hayrides, methinks). Their star attraction is a 6-acre maze, cut from a corn field, in differnet shapes each year. So you go at night, with some buddies and a flashnight, and try to make your way through the maze. Similarly, there’s a maze in which you weave your way through extremely claustrophobia-inducing walkways of hay with low ceilings, interspersed with short bits of crawling and the like. They have other stuff, too, but those are the…
