early for class

I got to school before eight, today. Wow. New record.

Sitting as humanly close to Darkside as possible; he's two computers down and across the table. Crowded lab, with the brown-haired instructor lady who was shaking and crying the most back on Sept. 11. This appears to be some evil computer-language cocktail including SQL and Cobol. Darkside's whole class-group is working on it, and screaming in agony as the mixture, in combination with the primarily Microsoft programs to work with it, yanks on their brains.

Votania left the bachelors on their own for three days; I had to wash dishes this morning before going to school, as not to leave an offensive mess in the kitchen sink. Wasn't that bad, actually -- everyone rinses their dishes before putting them in the dish-collection sink, and the other sink is left cleared by mandate of gods through Votania (as in, she'll give whoever clogs up the other sink a holy smackdown) so all that remained to do was clear out the clean dishes from the washer and get the last of the unrinsed crud off of the dirty dishes and load the dish washer and start 'er up.

Had a conversation with a guy last night. More details to follow once the server @ home's plugged back in so I can cut/paste at least the amusing portions of the entire long conversation, hopefully with annotation.

general sweetness

It very much doesn't hurt to be in the same room as Darkside. I was surprised. Avoiding him for a week and a half? yes.

Why? don't know.

But it has something to do with the way my room feels, tense with electric anticipation, something spinning hot on the verge of burnout, nonphysical. Votania won't go in there now. Need to sit down and cleanse. Need to do something besides play Bejeweled, work, and sleep.

Darkside must have shaved again. I love the way his face is put together. I go for men who physically remind me of my mother, and he's got it -- the build, the hair color (and, usually, the exact hairstyle), glasses, even the elemental nature. Personality ... Darkside's personality is... well. Darkside's.

Re-link time.

Debug

Heeeere buggy buggy buggy!!

Helping Candi debug her C++; I'm also picking up tips for what I need to do myself. Mostly syntax errors; using = for == is common among anyone who hasn't thought in the language for a while.

Van Zwol cancelled class, making my first actual class for today starting at 11 and ending my school day at noon.

Darkside's off today. Cute shirt.
