    It's Erev Purim and I just went to a megilla reading at the local Orthodox synagogue followed by a Purim party.
    I love Purim. You're actually commanded to celebrate and get drunk.
    The people at this synagogue are great, I got invited to a Purim sudah tomorrow morning with waffles, I just ate the most amazing cake pops ever, I had two small glasses of wine and 3 larger ones of really tasty rum punch, and I temporarily love life.

    Rave: My apartment complex is FINALLY offering an unlimited monthly internet plan ($65 a month, not too terrible)
    Rant: I have almost 250gb of downloading ahead of me to get my entire steam library back on my computer at long last... >_>

    what's your download speed?
    Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!"
    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

    pretty sure it is 5mbps or thereabouts - considering up until now I have been stuck paying $30 a month for 10gb or $45 a month for 20gb, I'm not complaining over $65 for unlimited.  I seem to be pulling down around 1-2gb an hour.

    Rave1: The meal I got invited to was a ton of fun and was basically a lunch party with pancakes rather than a synagogue function, and I exchanged contact info with a couple people who offered to find internships for me (I didn't ask them, they offered when they heard that I was in college and what my field was). One of the people actually used to work for, and still has contacts with, an agency that places interns with Congress and NGOs. Apparently this congregation holds a great number of of lawyers, law clerks, think-tank type people, and professors.

    Rave2: My midterm that was tomorrow is now next week. I had a whole lot of fun on spring break, but that also meant I barely studied, so this feels like a gift from heaven.

    Rant: Goodbye comfortable bed. Goodbye comfortable climate control. Hello dormmates who can't stop yelling. Goodbye sleep.

    Sleep is for the week.  Just eat cohosh and power through it!

    I recall doing an Achaea cartoon showing the inverse correlation between sleep and hatred. This applies somewhat to real life as well.

    He found a room at the Avenir, an inexpensive hotel on the rue Gay-Lussac. Registering under a false name, promptly forgotten, he climbed the stairs to his room, removed his clothes, and fell into the bed. "Rest is a weapon," he said to himself, staring at the ceiling, at the flickering lights of the Paris streets as they traveled across the plaster. Whether rest came in a mountain cave or a rice paddy in the Mekong Delta, it did not matter; it was a weapon frequently more powerful than firepower. That was the lesson drummed into his head by d'Anjou, the man who had given his life in a Beijing forest so that Jason Bourne might live. Rest is a weapon, he considered, touching the bandage around his neck yet not really feeling it, its constricting presence fading as sleep came.

    See. He wouldn't have been hit by the weapon of sleep had he taken his cohosh. *sagenod*

    Two of my colleagues have fallen very ill this semester (this isn't the rave part - I'm not a monster!), but the good news that comes from these very unfortunate circumstances is that I've been asked to pick up their course loads.

    Feeling good that I was the one tapped for the added load - and a minor *squee* that I get to actually teach Grammar - as in an entire course about it and nothing else. Yes, I am a geek for this. No, I do not care!

    Been listening to this awesome band called Ayron Jones and The Way all day with @Vicious. Really cool bluesy rock band with some grunge influence out of Seattle. They've been compared to Hendrix a bit in their sound. Really digging this band right now.
    What doesn't kill you gives you exp.
