Are you on spring break or something? I wish I was done with work on a Monday.
My school has accelerated terms. We start a week early and end two weeks early in order to make room for a semi-optional (you need to take 2 in order to graduate--one of which must be a travel course) 4 week term that takes up the Spring which is used for travel courses but can also be used to teach a regular class. I'm taking an on-campus one starting next week studying Macroeconomics. I'll be doing another on-campus one that's required for my major next year and the year after that I'll be fulfilling my travel requirement by touring Ireland with the high level college choir.
 
I just spent time reading random stff about Teddy Roosevelt and his family.
 
This is so useful!

'Literally' figuratively destroyed by program to remove the word's misuse
A new browser plug-in displays all instances of the much-abused adverb as its traditional opposite. It's a figurative blast​

That's figuratively awesome! Now, if only we could get it to work with speech...

Rave: Had a nice time talking to some people, including the particular lady. Could've asked her, but the timing didn't feel right.

And I've had some luck with unintentional birdwatching lately. There are the resident geese, of course, plus some newly arrived ducks. Some hawks or falcons have been crying out a lot, there are the usual robins (including a dead one) and turkey vultures, and about five F-18s. I don't know what they're doing so far inland, but it might have something to do with the nearby Boeing plant.

Also, "Augin tėvelis" is my favorite song ever.
 
My friends were really nice to me this week! I hadn't confirmed I was going to prom yet, so they made me a poster and gave me donuts so I would go. It really made my day.

I was one of the few in the class that did well on a quiz. :)

Also there's not much time before school's out!!!!!!

Just noticed I passed 20k posts! Woot!

Congrats!
 
Aaah, Totally Spies is a refreshingly moronic series.
 
So I'm 131 lbs, which makes me the fattest I've been in ~8 years. Just ~4-5 more pounds to go and I'll officially be the fattest I've been in my life. In other words, recovery's been going well; actually, some of the doctors think I might not even need surgery in the end, though we'll have to wait and see (though wait and see is better than 'okay let's do surgery now')

I remember my younger brother liked watching that for some reason years ago, I think when I was in middle school (around when I was in... 6th grade and he was in 2nd?). Occasionally I joined in for less than wholesome reasons. :groucho:

Actually now that I think about it it had quite a bit of fanservice and fetish stuff.
 
Sexy girls in jumpsuits? Fanservice? All that contributing to my light-heartedly watching it? Your imagination is overheated, my friend.

My cousin absolutely loves that series. He was genuinely confused when I claimed it was quite fanservice-y. Though I forgive him because he's gay so he might not have picked up on that... for some reason...
 
I used to watch it as a kid. They still throw it some times but oh God, how I have changed... I can but facepalm at most stuff that happens.
 
I have constant success at 2048.
 
In normal mode (no undo) it is 32964 and in practice mode (undo) it is 50644. I've gotten a 4096 tile in practice mode in two separate games; the best I've done in normal mode is a 2048 tile and a 1024 tile.

edit: My high score on my phone is 32964, on the website it's 36380.
 
don't think I posted but at the end of thursday april 24 I fulfilled all my undergraduate graduation requirements!

Now I still have some exams, but I don't need any of them to graduate.
