Whenever we arrive at some impasse in a campaign, Sean (our campus’ organizer) will say, “Well, we can quit, or we can work really hard to get this thing done.”  Of course, because I feel whatever we may be working on is important, I’ll go with the later.

When it’s something personal though, I ask myself the same sort of question (I’m lame like that)… and usually arrive at the former.

Peer pressure’s a bitch, ain’t it?

(While I’d love to end which such a concise phrase, I really don’t mean anything negative by that statement.  Just… I sorta do some (very) crude utilitarian analysis and personal stuff usually comes up short.  Well, that’s not entirely true either, since I can sit and play EVE all day and that doesn’t benefit anyone, but it also doesn’t require much work.  So it’s not strict utilitarianism relative to absolute actions, but more towards unit effort.

I guess…

Yeah, that’s some crude intellectual masturbation there.  This is why I don’t post to this thing much, Twitter’s 140 characters keeps me from the above quite well.)

Zuse rocks.  It basically takes songs from your Zune Social stream and lets you submit them to last.fm.  Super easy to set-up and it seems to work just fine.

Wheeeeee.

Apparently, the fine folks at EOP&S don’t have me in their system, which means I got here early for nothing.  Not just that, I can’t even make an appointment for my (required) counselor visits.

Also that I’ll be making mildly angry calls for like the rest of the week.

In other news, bacon.

Madness, and signs, ensue.

We were there a few hours before the debates started and it was really something.

Then, surprisingly, when the debate actually started people turned around and watched.  Cheers occurred, sure, but for the most part it seemed like people were actually watching.

More than I at least, my feet hurt and I went and ate crepes during the Health Care portion if I recall.
