everyone should be like me.

this week has been crazy busy, with presentations and papers and more papers and classes and sitting in coffee shops all day writing papers and racking up huge tabs. i asked the professor that is making us attend classes the day after classes are over what's up with us having to be in class on a non-class day, and she didn't like that question so much. so. there will be class next wednesday, and i will be there.

i'm trying to convert shannon to the dark side--social work, i mean. she needs a major, i like to recruit people to my school, it's a win-win situation. everyone should be a social worker. i think she's halfway convinced. it's either that or she's going to get a psychology or english degree, and i tried to explain to her that getting a liberal arts degree is about as useful as not having gone to college at all, which i'm sadly familiar with. i cried the day i got my diploma, and not because i was happy. my diploma says i have a bachelor's degree in liberal arts. it's like UT wants to rub it in just how useless my degree is. they couldn't even bother to mention that i have an anthropology degree, not even in fine print at the bottom of my diploma.

oooh, i like. the only thing i would ask you to change is the font color. i would go with two colors instead of three. i like the grey and salmon-y color, and i like the grey and purple, but the salmon and purple i don't like together as much. given the choice, i'm inclined to pick purple over pretty much everything else, except maybe red. hey, could you do red? and leave out the purple and salmon?

hmmm...not sure if/how that would work...am i being too demanding? and can you change my page color to black with white font?

okay, i'm going to quit making demands now.

let me know how much of this is doable...

and thank you. you still rock. :)
