02/10/2003: "Decisions, decisions..."

I can't make up my mind. Do I go to philosophy today or do I not? I have 45 minutes to decide. I haven't been to class the last three times, which made me decide I was going to go today. But just now I looked out the window and saw huge flakes of snow coming down...well, going sideways, really. There's never a lack of fierce wind here in Bowling Green, Ohio.

Pros for going to philosophy:
1. I haven't been for the last week
2. I like to look like a dedicated student

Cons for going to philosophy
1. It's on the other side of campus, which is a long walk
2. It's snowing something fierce, which makes that walk very unpleasant
3. The professor doesn't take attendance (he didn't even on the first day to see who everyone was)
4. It's sooooo boring, and the professor talks the entire time without letting us debate things.
5. The professor is long-winded and enjoys dramatic pauses to make and re-make his points.

Oh look, more cons than pros. I guess that means I'm staying in.

It stopped snowing in time, but the damage was already done. Besides, I was on the phone with my dad at the time I would have needed to leave. Okay, okay, I admit it, I'm a slacker. Go ahead and shake your finger at me.

Funny story that, about being on the phone with my dad...my credit card sends a rebate check based on how much you spend, and my dad opened up the bill and thought it was a scam to get me to make a cash advance, so he ripped it up and threw it away. I called to have them reissue another one after he found out it was a legit check, and they said it'd been cashed already. Spend a half hour in a conference call with my dad and the credit card company trying to get that straightened out. All this fuss over $9.
