Fair to Moderate

I don't really understand the mechanics of how my office is located in the seventh circle of hell, characterized by the strangest weather in Utah. Does anyone remember the great I-almost-slept-at-Thanksgiving Point snowstorm earlier this year? I sure do. Luckily, my current issue with the weirdness that is Lehi, Utah is not with any residual snow storm. It is, however, with the massive amount of wind that hits us here at the Point of the Mountain. I tried to take a picture, but the glass of my window obscured it to the point of uselessness. Fact of the matter is, I can barely see beyond the office parking lot because of the dirt and pollen and probably garbage that has been kicked up by the 35 mph wind. If I were around any sort of nature whatsoever it would definitely look like this:

I'm so glad that I packed baby carrots today because I am hiding out at my desk for lunch. Wind, you're ruining my life.

Today

The Bad: Tanked my last real test for my British literature class tonight

The Good: Last test taken at the testing center, hopefully for the rest of my life

The Bad: Didn't do an awesome job on my presentation this morning for English 495

The Good: I was wearing really cute shoes

The Bad: Current sleeping schedule has left me all sorts of screwed up. I'm wide awake for the next two hours but am going to be dead tired at three in the afternoon

The Good: I went and saw a late showing of "21" - it was alright and was a great distraction from aforementioned test

The Bad: 2 more papers, 1 project, one final

The Good: Some people have a great many more finals to take than I do

The Bad: It was snowing AGAIN this morning

The Good: I'm going to be in Florida in 3 weeks

The Bad: I just got pulled over for rolling through a 4-way stop (at 2:00 am)

The Good: I only got a warning and the policeman got my phone number.

End In Sight

Well folks,
I may have been MIA for the past week and a half, but it is for good reason. You see, I've been spending all of my time here:


or here: (work office)



and all of this has been made possible with the help of these:



Luckily, I am right on track to be here in 3 weeks:



No lie- I am going to sleep for 3 days straight after April 24th. It will be awesome.
