Yahoo has a cover story today about the Wii and how people are throwing the controllers like baseballs across the room and shattering televisions, windows, laptops…it’s pretty hilarious. Here’s a link to a site chronicling the madness: Wii have a problem.
Aaaand that’s all I’ve got. Finished classes yesterday; have to give finals next week. Promised [...]
Today, I concede defeat
Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: November 21, 2006
Well, even though there are nine more days, I concede a crushing defeat in Nanowrimo this year. I suppose it is possible that I will write a bunch more stuff in the next nine days, but the possibility is very slim.
In other news, did you guys hear that Britney went out partying with Paris hilton [...]

Okay, so I am only just barely Catholic, but there are some things that offend the Jungian Catholicism flowing in my blood to the very core. The U2charist is one of them.
Yeah. You read that right. U2charist. Sometimes, seen as U2 Eucharist.
Really, I guess, it’s the name that offends me the most. The actual u2charist [...]

Thought you guys might be interested in this, if you haven’t yet seen
it.
This kid didn’t have his Student ID and got into some static at the
library. He began to pitch a fit. Instead of throwing him up against
the wall, cuffing him, and carrying him out–which might have been
appropriate– the UCLA police (real police; not rent-a-cops, [...]

I have hit that point in the semester where everyone’s work seems just fine and I start assigning a great slew of Bs. Yahoo for the students.
Nanowrimo is kicking my butt this year. I am so far behind…I think we’re supposed to have something like 20,000 words by now, and as you can see, I [...]
PhD Itch
Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: November 9, 2006
I’m getting the itch again. You know the one. Should I go back for my PhD? My brain is itching and I think maybe I should.
Well, I’ve fought that battle lots of times. I KNOW I don’t want to be a prof for the rest of my life. But the itch comes back nevertheless. So [...]
Now I’m REALLY behind
Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: November 4, 2006
So here it is, day 4, and I have decided to throw out my current Nano idea and start over. I’m obviously really behind now. By the end of today I’ll need 6,668 words to be on schedule. That’s really a lot. I don’t know if I’ll be able to do that. Especially since I [...]

Here are a few pics from Halloween and one pic from our Pumpkin Party.
These pictures are “unretouched” as they say…a term that drives me crazy. Yes. I have undone the not touching of them or something. Eh, let’s just put it this way: I didn’t photoshop these.
That’s me. And no, that’s not my real hair. [...]

Yesterday I was dying to start. DYING. Today I’m scared to start!
Last night I helped my friend Emily throw a Halloween party for Sigma Tau Delta. It was alright. Students came. Some faculty came. Some people dressed up. I went as an Angel, and Tom went as a Devil and we have photos but I [...]
