The last couple days have been absolutely nuts. Wednesday night I took off and went to Toronto on the Greyhound which was as slow as ever. It also didn't help that the Backstreet Boys where in town and there was a Leafs game. Fortunately the bad traffic meant that not only I was late but Darryl who was picking me up was too. From the bus station we drove up to Berry to check out the 54-40 concert. After the concert Darryl's friend Melissa from SonicNotes got us backstage with the band. I wish I was a rockstar! Girls, beer, life in the limelight. And did I forget? Getting screwed by your record label and barely breaking even on your tour.

I ended up only getting 2 hours of sleep since we had to leave Darryl's by 6:30am to get to the bus station for 7:30 to catch the bus back to Waterloo. Of course there was a blizzard so the bus was an hour late getting back to Waterloo and I missed CS251. After classes went back to Nat's but the reporters we're wanting the low down on Amazon so that swallowed up the afternoon followed by hockey. We kicked some butt too. I think it was 4-0.

After hockey I rushed off to see this apartment. The landlord showed it myself and 2 other groups and promptly announced that if we wanted it we'd have to fork over $450x3 by 10pm (it was 7pm) and that he preferred to rent to girls. So he could pimp more apartments to me he drove me back to Grebel. Turns out he owns half of Waterloo which explains why rent has uniformally risen across the board.

Fortunately Jon Bowman believes we can work out a positive situation at 207 Erb so that relieves the housing stress. But there was a fair amount of Fairtunes stress last night because our Visa machine is broken. It took till about 4am to get a quick hack into place till the Royal Bank gets their act together.

Today I slept through Stat 230 and then worked on CS241 Asn #2. The questions that were worth nothing ate up a lot of time and I probably answered them incorrectly. The question worth the most that I had finished a week ago had one little tiny bug that I was determined to fix. Unfortunately fixing it caused more stuff to break. I think I'm going to re-write it and re-submit it late (we get two 'free' lates in the course) just because I'm so fantical about it.

At 6 I had a quick ten or so minutes on CTV's Talk TV.

Now I'm at Nat's thinking about that stupid CS assignment.
