San Diego, CA [OT] Mindless ramblings at 3:50am...

You know what's awesome?


After getting home from work at 10pm, starting a humanities paper at 10:30, finishing it at 3:40am (when it's due at 10am), managing not to wake your roommate up with all the typing and coughing, going to print your essay....


And finding you are out of printer paper.


God bless sleep.

 

The many joys of being at college

 

LOL.. I am sooooo with you on this one! (Been there., done it..STILL working on the paper!)

 

I've made 2am paper runs before. At least there is no line to wait in!

 

I didn't have "printers" in college. Just the good ol' IBM 'lectric typewriter.

And yes, there were 50 stars on the flag already, and the Periodic Table had about the same number of elements (I think).

 

/\ You had electricity back then Armand? LOL j/k

 

Actually, yes.

My buddy, Ben, had locked himself out of the boarding house we were staying at. It was dark, and he didn't want me to throw the key out the second story window in case he couldn't find it. So, he decided to fly his kite up to the window, I tied the key to the string with the idea he'd just reel it in.

BAM! Lightning struck that key.

Long story short, that booger-eating, blind as a bat, philanderer gets all this credit for "discovering" electricity, and I get faccatta.

 

ROTFL!

So THATS how it happened!
