i'm bouncing off the walls w/ excitement now. we're leaving for oscc on wed and aus on sun!!! i'm planning to subject everyone to millions of pics and hrs of video when we get back so brace yourselves :)

any "i've been away and now i'm back" present requests?

I'm DONE!!!

Yay! *me does a little happy dance*

Now I'm home for good and that feels amazing! I'm not sure it's kicked in that I'm not going back to london yet. I was sad when I left yesterday, but the fact that I'm finally finished my degree and we're going to conference in a week and Australia in just over a week is making me so excited I don't think i'll be sad for about a month yet. Really going to miss living w/ the crew though. We had some excellent times this year!

Also, since I haven't blogged since it happened, congrats to C and C on their engagement.
Congrats to I and T for getting pregnant :)
Congrats to PM for also finishing.

Happy birthday to Fr. B. tomorrow.

Since I'm announcing things: Stuart's going to be an uncle :)

2 exams and 1 paper down, 3 exams to go.

I need 3 more tickets to graduation. Wish me luck getting hold of those. I have a feeling dad, PI, and Bear will be waiting to get rush seats after ticket ppl have already been allowed in :(

I just recieved the following email:

Congratulations! This message is to notify you that the Faculty of
Information Studies is pleased to offer you admission to our MISt
program beginning September 2006.

Happy Easter everyone :)

Only 2 more days until you can have whatever you gave up back again :)

i signed up w/ a program at harper collins that i heard about through the ola conference. you sign up, then you choose a book from the list of offered books for that month. if you're selected in the draw they send you a pre-publication copy for you to review. you just email them your review by the first of the next month. i'm currently reviewing a cook book, so there's a lot of yummy italian food happening at my place this week.

well, classes are FINALLY over and i'm generally in a much better mood b/c of it :)
now i just have to finish my last essay and read the stuff i've fallen behind in and i'm done for good!!!

Two women friends had gone for a girl's night out. Both were very faithful and loving wives, however, they had gotten over-enthusiastic on the Bacardi Breezers. Incredibly drunk and walking home they needed to pee, so they stopped in the cemetery.

One of them had nothing to wipe with so she thought she would take off her panties and use them. Her friend however was wearing a rather expensive pair of panties and did not want to ruin them. She was lucky enough to squat down next to a grave that had a wreath with a ribbon on it, so she proceeded to wipe with that.

I'm starting to suspect the worst.. my wife came home with no panties!!"

"That's nothing" said the other husband, "Mine came back with a card stuck to her ass that said.....
