I fear I may be getting sick. ;; I have been sneezy and sniffly all day. This is not cool! In fact, I would really like a hot chocolate or something, but I figure I may go haunt my usual Starbucks this evening and get something warm and yummy to drink then while I write up the variability section of my thesis. Because today has been spent making my variability program all pretty and useful and fancy, and now I'm just... redoing that twelve times for each of my clusters. Ahhh, so many clusters.
Also, for the record? UPS showed up at 8:30pm the other day. 8:30. They're only supposed to deliver from 9-7, and when I got sick of waiting for the guy I left at 7:30 to run errands and just managed to catch him leaving my building when I got home at 8:30. Geez. I really wish they'd just come before 5 and leave it at my apartment office. :x I suppose I should be grateful they even attempted to deliver my package on Tuesday, but still. It's the principle of the thing or... something. If you can't deliver it within the hours you say you will, then get another truck? IDK.
But since I did get to go out, I now own the new Mercedes Lackey book and the new Rick Riordan book, which I am hoping is more engaging (to me) than The Kane Chronicles because that one... just didn't suck me in as much. It's not like the plot is boring (yes, is, I'm still not done with it >>), but I just wasn't quite as engaged. I also still have to finish the second Artemis Fowl book (again... plot's good, but I'm not dying to read it) and I also kind of went a little crazy on Amazon and ordered Sid Phillips' book because, well. SID. :D;;
Tyler is coming to visit tomorrow! As it is also Homecoming weekend, I think I will attempt to steer clear of the University, and probably that whole side of town. I guess I can spend the rest of the day writing up stuff and finishing my costume (oh, I should work on that tonight, too). At least the pants are mostly done - just have to put on the side pockets and the zipper and close them up~ I've actually gotten pretty good at pants, I think? :D And then I have to make the belt, but that's not hard, either. Just a lot of snaps. XD
Okay, back to work now, to hopefully get this program updated for a few more clusters before I call it quits and go running and attempt not to drip too much. :x
