Don't fill your mouth with gluttony
For pride will surely swell
But nothing's unforgiven in the four corners of hell!
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided but forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins!
It felt like a long day. It probably wasn't, but it felt like it.
Got to bed at 12:30. Woke up, by force of habit, at 6:30, despite setting my alarm for 8:30. Felt numb but unfatigued.
Printed SDP documents, had breakfast, had a bath, got dressed, put away a few things. The standard "Hey I'm actually home and there's stuff needs doing" kind of thing.
At around 9:00, I headed off to catch a bus. Yay public transport! I'm finally getting close to finishing all the IAJ readings. Though I must admit that by now I'm starting to skim them.
I tinkered on the 'net for a little while before walking over to Building 5. I did a quick loop around the building, but apparently my team-mates were hiding somewhere, so I went and read at the tables outside the room.
The meeting went overtime, and we spent some time chatting after that. And some more time chatting after that. Trying to explain to a business student why I thought having a "Search Query" box, as separate from a "Problem Description" box, took something like an hour. "Well, see, the customer could say they want A blue 1950s coat with purple buttons, and you'd search for blue coat, but it's actually in the database as aqua jacket; so, you need to identify these problems. No, it isn't in the paper-based system; this is a problem that wouldn't exist in the paper system." *sigh* I don't think he understood what we were suggesting, but he said "Yes" to placate us. *shakes head*
After the meeting, Chris and I printed out the nomination for ProgSoc as Club of the Year, and headed over to take it to Penny. She was talking with people, so we chatted to Brinton while we waited. Chris had to head off to class before she'd finished. When we finally presented it to her, the quote was "Yay! Now I have two of them!".
I went and hung out with the E.G.G. boys for a while, before heading back to ProgSoc. Checked the email buildup (when the Hell did I get to be the kind of person that receives like thirty emails a day?), then headed over to the Union to pick up some garlic bread to nibble on before class.
Chatted to Subfuture and co. He was reading some book about mind control or somesuch. At about quarter to, I headed over to the lecture room.
Rob actually turned up, as he'd promised. The lecture was more or less exactly the same as previous ones, but at least he didn't start ranting about how horrible Windows is. Much.
After class, we visited the E.G.G. boys for a little longer. I headed over to the ProgSoc room when the sound effects from BioShock started exacerbating my headache. The webcam was being creepy, but what else is new?
Rob: What is this "Web" you speak of? In my day...
Mm: You only had eighty characters in all the world, and you liked it, dammit!, huh?
