take a sad song and make it better.
Jan. 31st, 2009 07:04 pmI haven't really been in the mood to post lately - this has really got me down, and as a result of it, we're getting basic cable after the Superbowl. So this means no more DVR, HD or OnDemand. Thankfully, almost everything I watch can be viewed online, so I really shouldn't be worrying this much. It's just that we have a big screen TV and it's kind of pointless to have one without the HD. I'm kinda hoping that once things get back on track we'll be able to use it again. I've become so accustomed to being able to watch things in HD that it'll be weird to watch things in standard definition. Especially when there are some big things coming up.
The Superbowl is tomorrow, although I'm not as excited as a used to be. I found out a few days ago that Obama is a Steelers fan, which really pissed me off (FINALLY something to not like about him), but that's understandable. They're one of the best teams in the league; they wouldn't have gotten to the Superbowl if they weren't. But honestly, I think everyone's sick of Pittsburgh at this point. They've already won a bunch of Superbowls, the most recent in 2006. It's about time someone else wins. It'll be a great story if the Cardinals win, since they haven't won in nearly 60 years. It'll give us some hope that if the underdog can overcome the odds, then we can get through anything. And we've all been needing some hope these days.
I have my first Anthro exam on Wednesday, which I'm really nervous about. We're allowed to bring a "cheat sheet" with us to the test, but I only have a vague idea of what it covers, so I don't know exactly what I should put on it. I have a take home essay to do as well, but I haven't even really looked at it yet. I want to be super-prepared for this exam so I can do well on it, since I didn't turn in my first assignment and now have one of the lowest (if not the lowest) grade in the class. But given my recent mood, I'm not motivated to much of anything. So I'm hoping I feel better soon! Steve Martin hosting Saturday Night Live, NBC's six hours of pre-Superbowl coverage, and that post-Superbowl episode of The Office are sure to cheer me up.
