I took a creative writing class--well workshop--last semester, did you know these things, blogs, are supposed to be carefully planned out? If that is the case, blogage = FAIL, EPIC FAIL even. I dunno I guess this would be a more entertaining blog if everything was thought out and well rendered into some pseudo-journalistic spin-off.

I dunno, to me a blog should be more personal, It should be clearly partisan, and one should never turn to a blog for precise facts. That is just a fools errand.

My problem is I have structuring my thoughts and feelings into something halfway entertaining. I just come off sounding like a whiny little bitch. I guess that has it's place, but not in a public spectrum.

What I am saying I guess is bear with me as I try to figure out my balance of bitchy/entertaining...

I started the summer session, yeah summer school , anyhow the first week one of the professors was out. In his stead was a substitute, who was barely mobile and recovering from back surgery mind you, and a rambling fifteen page syllabus.

I'll take this moment, to say that his attendance policy for the summer term...

So... basically he is saying if you miss a class, he is going to drop you. This seems an empty threat considering most Professors, and the school policy clearly state that it is not the professors job to cut your enrollment, its your own. They would rather just give you an F and screw with your GPA.

Anyhow I was really hoping he was one of those people who is just a dick on paper, and more agreeable in person. Turns out he is. He is even willing to let absences slide if you are scoring well on the exams, if your not however, well that's your own harvest I guess.

History is the other class I'm taking, American to be exact, colonial times to 1877. Its required by the gov because they subsidize funding or something or another. its completely online. I don't know how to feel about this, or if I am self motivated enough to pull it off. Case in point week 1's work is due tonight by midnight. I have yet to do anything other than read 2 of the 3 chapters. So we shall see...

What else, oh yes. Many may have heard of my atrocious mini golf skills, a lucky few have even bore witness to this first hand. I have great news! Apparently I mini golf a helluva lot better after I have had a few beers .

#2 get well... I know the hotel was getting on your nerves, but really a hospital is just the same, but without the smiling desk staff and knocks to announce housekeeping. Instead you traded down to Nurse Ratchet and bad food. Then again, I have heard great things about sponge baths.... fill me in when you are able won't you?

Lastly I have a question. What do you guys think of Babe vs Baby? Personally I'd rather hear Babe, the latter grates on my nerves for some reason. What are your thoughts?
