I Hate This Guy

Oh, I forgot to mention once again that school blows. I was hoping that the long weekend would give the Networking teacher time to pull his head out of his ass and figure out what he was going to teach this module. Man, I must be living in a fantasy. We did NOTHING today. He actually told us to play games or whatever it is we do while he figured out what he was going to do. It seems like he spent most of the class with his head on his desk. He promised us on the first day of class that he would never walk out on us. Right now I'm hoping for that. Top all that off with another hard drive that crapped out on me in Unix class today and I'm really getting stuff accomplished this month. Dallas finally helped me get RedHat Linux installed on yet another drive halfway through lunch today. Hopefully I'll finally get to start working on the lab tomorrow that was originally supposed to be due tomorrow morning. That ain't happening. Combined with the SSDD at work and I'm frustrated to the breaking point. I just need to remember: ONLY 10 MORE DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT!

I was watching Dr. Phil on Oprah this afternoon. I love that guy. He said if your life is not turning out the way you want it to, stop whatever it is that you're doing that's making it this way. It sounds so simple. Oh, if only it were so easy. He also had a quote that cracked me up, something to the effect of "Pray to God for help, but in the meantime, keep rowing for shore." That wasn't quite it, but you get the idea.
