Rant: I borrowed a copy of Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri from a friend but for some reason it doesn't work on my laptop.
Plus, my roommate isn't moving in until Tuesday evening.

Not being able to play SMAC is a terrible thing.

Having the room for yourself is a terrific thing.

Have to go to the lab for Labor Day. The time the experiment finished means that I have to wait the next hour for the train home.

I had one of those when it's done workdays with no fixed finishing time.
I went in at eight in the morning expecting to be finished by 2 pm.
Due to poor communication (I did things I later found out didn't need doing) and organization (I had to wait fro another team to finish their stuff before I could continue) I just got home now. It's eight pm.
To add injury to insult, I was writing a text message on my way out, misjudged the number of stairs by one and twisted my ankle.

 

[Kennigit]

you guys made me sick.

I've been in bed since like 22:00 pm last night (now is 16:00 next day) and did no work.

 

[DroopyTofu]

I felt good this morning but I've been completely lethargic and sick-feeling for about five hours now. This is especially bad because I have so much work to get done before tomorrow.

True story: James H. Kyle, considered by some the "Father of Labor Day," is from Cedarville, Ohio. Cedarville is one of the most bourgeois towns in America, so they celebrate that part of their heritage with a big parade called "Cedarfest," while giving no mind to the labor movement.
