the evil monkey tells me I’m supposed to be reading my textbooks

I got my papers back for my enviro chem and psych classes. A’s on both. Not too shabby at all. Since I’m way behind in my readings I think I’m spending most of this evening reviewing the chapters from my psych class. I find it easier to process than the enviro chem materials and, since some of it is familiar from past classes, easier to remember once read. If I’m going to dig through homework assignments late in the evening then this is the class to do it in.

One thing that has me very confused is my grades in the bi-weekly assignments in the psych class. While the paper was returned with a significant amount of really helpful feedback, the grades assigned to the assignments came with no such commentary. The grades themselves weren’t horrible – a respectable A- on both – but I’m not sure where I might have gone wrong in the assignment or if I missed the boat on any of the salient points. Guess this means I have to send an email to the prof requesting feedback this week.

Setting my usual whining about school aside for the moment I’m having ohmygawd i can’t believe i can’t connect 24/7 major minor issues with my Internet connection of late. After 3 years of no difficulties with my wireless DSL connection, we’ve started to have some really annoying connection drops this week. I’m having to reset my modem multiple times a day to get the connection back. When it’s working it works beautifully. When it drops I growl and say horrible things that make the puppies’ ears burn. If you exclude the Internet portion of our network, the rest of it is working fine. I’m beginning to suspect that the issue might be with the phone line… it will soon be time to harass technical support and get them to fix the issue NOW!

  1. More great grades!! I don’t know what I would do if I was having problems with my DSL. Probably cry. Hope you get it figured out soon.
