Jan. 16th, 2005 12:38 amIt is no longer possible to buy single stamps at the post office. At least, not without waiting in line. Those nifty machines they had in the lobby, the ones that dispensed exactly as many stamps as you needed? Gone. There is now one nifty little machine that does everything except sell one single, solitary stamp on its own. I was quite dismayed to find this out yesterday. And then all of my errands went ill. None of the books that I have left to get for my classes were in. (And apparently The Monsters and the Critics is not going to come in. Ever. Because the bookstore people are idiots and couldn't order the book three months ago when Leslie originally put the order in.) The only task tat seemed to go at all smoothly was exchanging the bottle of wine that I got my mom for Christmas. There was no problem at all in making the exchange. When we opened it, however, it turned out to be even more rank than the first one had been. The first one was only slightly off. This one... ugh. So I should probably get something else for my mom.
The other day I went over to Penny's for Latin Jeopardy. It was fun, despite the fact that everyone else has been taking Latin for at least a year longer than I have. And while there I met Latin TA Jay, who is frighteningly similar to Nathaniel. It was quite bizarre.
In other news, I finished the Set puzzle in 43 seconds the other day; and I really should stop reading the Lost forums at TWoP, unless I'm in a mood to laugh idiots to scorn, because otherwise it's just annoying.
