Grumpy Beastie's Other Lair

If today was any indication Tuesdays are gonna suck. I'm gonna be running to class from work in the morning. I only have 2 classes but one is at breakfast time and the other is at dinner time. They are both in rooms that have major technical difficulties. At least with the history of photography class I was kinda excited. But after both it and the origins of abstract art I was thinking "dear god what I have I gotten myself into." At least I have a friend in each class. I'm really not looking forward to the Origins class. First after years of having the terms abstract and nonobjective art pounding into my head as not being the same thing, the professor for this class has decided they are. Also, it simply isn't my area and there are only two other people in the class that have that "problem". At least the work load doesn't seem too overwhelming.
We also had a hall meeting today. We were discussing programs to use our hall funds on because we have a lot of them and we need to use them. Many things were discussed such as lazer tag, game and movie nights, henna, tie dyeing, sushi night, and a trip to Castle. The only things we decided on for sure were the Trip to the Marineers game in Seattle and catered dinners every other Sunday. It also sound like we are going to have a sweet life party. I'm going to try to go to some programs this term because if I keep on top of things I will have the time and frankly I am almost done with school and I haven't really had any fun this whole time. Ok I have a had a little, I went out with Martini last year and there was that one party freshman year and I always go to Rocky, and the Zombie walk this year. But in four years that really isn't a lot.
Tonight also was the finale of Bam's Unholy Union. It was awesome.

Its Mardi Gras! and I did nothing to celebrate, unless you count eating DoughCo. and watching it on the travel channel. I don't. We are all just going to have to wait to hear from Martini and nola. Yeah I have been watching the travel channel a lot lately. I have discovered that although I want to go to Tokyo, I don't think I could handle the subway. I also have been watching the animal channel a lot. I have decided that I want a baby panda to pack around, (of course I'm kidding, by the time they are cute they weight 50 lbs and get bigger, among other reasons). I guess the theme today was that I'm burnt out. It's Tuesday and that means two things: Staff meeting and Bam's Unholy Union.
There is a lot of tension right now at work for many reasons. One is because one of our co-workers/my friend passed away about a week ago. Also our boss, although she is very nice, is proving to have "ineffective management skills" as it was explained in one of my co-worker's business classes. Everyone is getting fed up with it. Some of our more timid employees even complained in person yesterday. Also, for some unknown reason, no one seems to get it. Even the newest employee has been working there for at least two months, most have been working since the middle of September and they still aren't getting it right. And because of this we have to keep hearing the same thing over and over, things are getting screwed up and some of them have very expensive and/or legal consequences if not fixed immediately, and new policy has been put in place that just creates more work for everyone. And on top of it my shifts keep getting closer together (I only work overnights) and people keep attempting to dump their overnight shifts on me, so I'm doubly tired of it.
As for Bam's Unholy Union, it is seriously more entertaining than it really should be, and I don't mean that in a bad way. It's not like its insanely stupid or anything (as one would expect), its actually kind of cute and really should be considered quite dull by by reality tv standards. Also I'm trying to tape it for my mom. She has no tv and wants to watch it. I missed taping last week's episode and the three episodes I do have are out of order. Tomorrow at five they are supposed to be playing them all in order but my tv guide is wrong a lot lately. And there is a good chance I'll sleep through it because I have my third midterm in a row tomorrow and I work again tomorrow night. I also am having problems with Hairball but it is more personal than I feel like posting here at the moment.
I must go study now.
