Bah.
Finals are coming in a week.
I just took my last test (so basically a final) in my Intro to Old Testament class tonight. I am supposed to be writing a couple of assignments for tomorrow now... But, I simply have no motivation.
Next Tuesday (which is actually a reading day) I have one paper, and one serious project (which has seen little headway in recent weeks) due by 5pm. And, I need to make up the articles for my Media class that I have been delaying.
That said... Tonight was a free meal (for commuters) at the cafeteria. That brings the grand total to meals eaten in the cafeteria this semester to three. It was decent, the ham was even good, but the salmon was awful. Seriously, I am getting sick just thinking about it. I hope no one ate it.
Free ice skating for commuters on Friday! haha.
After classes end I will finish getting all the written stuff up here, as well as provide the grades I receieved on each one... And eventually the course grades too. Good stuff.
I will be back in Tucson from December 19th to the 28th. Lets party.

Netflix (redux)
I have used Netflix off and on over the last two years (who knew! haha, I didn't until I sat down to write this post and checked!). I even blogged about it once at the old space. I obviously didn't have them while I was gone overseas, and I didn't use them while in Tucson earlier this year - because my roommate Trevor had Blockbuster.com, but I have been using them for a while... and I feel compelled to make my rental history known.
I pay $17.99/month for 3-at-a-time unlimited, I load up a bunch of movies I want to see, and they ship them to me [pretty much] in the order I want them. I keep them as long as I want (nothing is ever late), watch them when I want, and send them back - prepaid to Netflix, who ships me the next disc upon receipt. When done right, the 3/unlimited plan can deliver a fresh movie to your house almost everyday of the week. They have a wide range of plans... and now feature some streaming movies (based on hours/month) directly from their website for those instant compulsions.
No, I am not going to recount every movie I have rented (presently 109 individual discs, as many were part of a series) or rated (371 titles) through them. I like to watch TV shows this way, no commercials.
So, as you look at the titles below... Do you use Netflix or similar online rental service? Does it work for you? Do you rent in the store? How much money do you spend on rentals in a month? Have you seen any of the below? What do you think? Leave it in the comments.
These three came in the mail yesterday:
And these represent my rental history since resuming Netflix two months ago. In order of watched. Anything stand out to you??

Same thing, two weeks later...
Ha.
I was no good at updating the last couple of weeks. Even after I was critical on another's blog! Guilty. Flog me in the street!
Random:
Last week or ealier:
- Worked the PlanetWisdom Conference while it was in town. (I flirted with some girls from Bethany College of Missions, they tried to recruit me... I decided I am very happy at Judson - now, if I could just work out that flirting thing at JU... hmmm)
- House sat for my boss, she has three dogs, one of which requires medication 3 times daily. I am allergic to one of those dogs at least. More reason I don't like pets.
- Fall Break came and went.
- Got Under The Overpass by Mike Yankowski. He was here at Judson for "Spiritual Enrichment Week." More on that to come... I guarantee.
- Finished up Exiles by Michael Frost. << href="http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Halo3/Default.aspx?player=djjubei1">Here is the proof (although, my actual exp is way behind on the interwebz. Bungie! My stats are borked - again!).
Today:
- Ate at a greasy fast food restaurant called "Jester's" - Got a haircut, and got 4 bucks off the haircut (because it was monday, not because they made an 'accident').
- Learned NEVER to say "Large" at McDonald's. (This also marks the first McDonald's I have had since seeing Super Size Me... I only ordered iced coffee... and it was still wayyyyy more then I was expecting.)
- Got rejected for a library card... For the second time. Thx Gail Borden.
- "Getting an abortion is easier then getting a library card, seriously!" D. Schlager.
Assignments!! Cuz itz THURZDAY... wait... TUEZDAY!
STUDENTS STRUGGLE WITH ALCOHOL (MED240)
The next one I worked really hard on... and I hope I get a good grade. The link will be updated after final edits, but here it is for review (its due in 13 hours). I better get an A! ... erm... I think my work is worthy of high marks professor... :)
Essay 2 FOR REVIEW "Colonization's Effect on the New World" (HIS262) Essay 2 FINAL.
I missed a few this past week. I have one more for tomorrow. I will get them all caught up tomorrow night - and maybe a picture of my not-so-new new haircut if you are lucky. I'm tired.
