So, looks good so far. I'm waiting to hear back from Prof. Plumstead to see whether I can stay in Romance or not, since I didn't take the prerequisite.

But, some may be asking, why the change to Philosophy of Love and Sex? What happened to Adult and Child? Well, that, friends, is an adventure in Academic Advising I hope never happens again...

I went to see the Advisor today. I don't like the one I always end up stuck with, because she has this habit of making me feel like a complete moron, and I don't like feeling that way when it's not deserved. In any case, I sit down with her, and after some fiddling around, she finally does an audit of my cources to see where I'm at. After a few minutes and puzzled glances, she finally looks up and says: "Well, it's a good thing you came in here... You're Short!"

I stare at her like she has 3 heads and a purple horn. Short? But last year, the other advisor, Derrek, told me that I was fine! No, she says... This course, this course and this course don't count, but these ones, which aren't supposed to, will, because you're in Liberal Arts, and therefore you're 6 credits short to graduate.

Fuck.

So what do I do? Now I look like a deer in the headlights, and she's re-counting. "Well, I know it will bring your average down, but why not give up re-taking this Psych?" Well, yeah, I stammer, I guess I could... But I need a higher average this year, and I don't really have anything else I can take...

"Well, you can pick up one more full year first year course, or check out a few of the new options...Or something like (she wrinkles her nose) Philosophy of Love, or something..."

Bingo!

So that's how it happened. Besides, it's frigging SEX and LOVE. The two things I bitch about most, and their impact on modern culture. Hello, BIRD COURSE!! Woot.

Other than that, not much of intrest has been going on. Vanessa and I have been talking a lot more recently, which is good. We used to hate eachother, because she's Todd's Ex (like, nearly got married ex...), and he was sleeping with me at the same time he was sleeping with her, but it appears that our mutual "hatred" of that rancid sack of pond scum (which I say with the utmost love and respect...) has helped us develop an interesting bond. That, and we actually have quite a bit in common. So, that's cool. I love making new friends!

So, I don't really know what to do with myself now. That hour of waiting for an advisor, the 15 minute flurry of "Holy crap, I'm not gonna graduate!" and the following mad rush of drop/register/email everyone the new schedual kinda took its tole on me. Plus, I think both Mike and Josh are sick, which is making me leery of expending too much energy. I don't want whatever they've got. So I might just curl up and read. That's probably something I should do a LOT more of before the year starts up. I'm almost done Amber Spyglass (which means a little less than half-way through), and I've got about 4 billion other books to read... Maybe I should get cracking. And now that I don't have to review all my development notes, I'll have time for that.

Or I could take a nap. Whatev.
