My brother called me earlier to tell me one of their new cats had died. The little cute one that would just chill on your shoulder.
I thought I was okay after I cried it out once but apparently I'm not. She was not gaining weight and Mom thinks she died of respiratory failure because she had a cold. My sister was at a friend's house and it was homecoming so they didn't tell her. And they haven't told her yet. Mom said she buried the cat, Hero, and will tell her on Sunday when she gets home.
Hannah had a rough time when we had to put McHenry to sleep and she loved this cat so I'll be up in Rockford tomorrow.
Growl!

Pushing Daisies is a show you should watch if:
you have ovaries
you like Gilmore Girls
you like laughing
you like style
you need something to watch on Wednesdays because every other day is booked
you are worried about watching a new show too late (you can watch episodes you missed on abc.com)
you like Big Fish, Amelie, Edward Scissorhands, Wonderfalls or Wes Anderson
you are awesome
you are lame
Watch it, fools. Catch it on rerun

I currently have a programming project that is due at midnight on sunday. I have been working on it all week. It is worth 10% of my grade. It currently totals well over 1,000 lines. I thought I'd be able to finish it by tonight. I was wrong.
As I see it, I have either written a complete mess that I will need to scrap and completely redo, or I have written acceptable code, but the compiler I am using is glitching on me and I will need to re-enter it anyways.
Either way, I still have a diagram that I am required to make.
Either way, I still need to make a file to compile this bastard in a linux environment.
Either way, I probably won't get to go swimming with my friends on Sunday.
Either way, I am MASSIVELY pissed...
...at this project for being absurdly large...
...at my professor for assigning the project and assuming we would be able to complete it after listening to his broken english and meandering powerpoint slides...
...at my TA's for not being available to help on weekends...
...at MSU for allowing such an unnecessarily difficult class to exist...
...at whoever the hell developed class inheritence in C++...
...at whoever the hell designed Microsoft Visual Studio in all it's glitchy glory, with all it's vague error messages that half the writers of the program probably couldn't decypher...
...and at Charles Babbage for originally proposing the concept of the computer.
In essence, I am so pissed that I could probably rip, not merely one, nor two nor three, nor even 50, but rather 100 kittens in half... ...lengthwise... ...with my bare hands.
Well, wish me luck I suppose.
And if I suffer a complete mental breakdown and wind up either dead or in a permenant coma, well, it was great knowing you all.
Adios

For those of you who want to join my NaNoWriMo quest, go to the website (nanowrimo.org), sign up and add me (Angel_Bob). You'll get an adorable email and then we can make a party and start this thing.
I've decided I'm going to write my romance novel because it does not need to be very good.
I'm planning already. 50,000 words in 30 days is 1,666.66667 words a day. I've decided to plan it out the first two days so 50,000 words in 28 days is 1,785.71429 words a day. So if I start in on it the first day, I'll need about 1667 words a day but if I wait, I'll need 1786 words a day. For comparison, MLK's I have a dream speech has 1,601 words. And that's not that long at all.
We can do it.

I have decided to try NaNoWriMo this year. We shall see how it goes.. I don't get on the computer much but I guess I could hand write it like the olden days.
I am sadly excited to do it. It's like motivation.
Oh, in case you don't know, November is National Novel Writing Month. A bunch of people all sign up and pledge to write a novel from November 1-30. A novel being a 175-page/50,000-word piece of work.
It's always sounded fun but I've never been inspired to do it until now. Or wanted to. This semester is easy and I can always get rid of a few hours at work if need be.
This is exciting. I am stoked.
P.S. If anyone else wants to do it (Katti, Jessa) that would be awesome. Then we can all motivate each other.

Andy, I noticed a change in the saying. It is not cool. I loved you first. That bitch don't know shit.
In other news, I will not be able to go to Red Flannel for the first time in two years. Nick has to work which means Nick has the car. It wouldn't be the same without him anyway. This makes me sad. Red Flannel is the start of fall and I'd get to see Nick's parents.
And play bingo.

My teeth hurt. I miss people.

I did not lay down after the nyquil/dayquil incident. I took a test, went to work, went to another class, back to work and then to my quad.
I am going to take nyquil and bring dayquil with me to take later tomorrow. I think I will take a smaller dose.
I've been sick for over a week.

Is it sad that I am looking forward to Red Flannel? Because I am.
It's always the official start for fall for me. And I get to see Nick's parents.
I don't know. I am just excited for it.
It's good to have something to look forward to.

About the cat
His name is Fruitbat. We got him from an animal rescue place off Knapp. He is almost 14 weeks old. He is adorable and love climbing on walking on keyboards while Nick and Ben are in an instance.
I have pics and video but I am supposed to be writing a 7-10 page paper and I'm not feeling too great so you will probably see them tomorrow or later this week.
