The cat is abnormally freakishly long. He can reach up on his hind legs and open doors. I'll have to pull out a tape measure next time I visit if I remember... xD

Ah okay so, I visited earlier and remembered to take his measurements while I was there...

head to butt: 20 inches
shoulder height: 11 inches
tail length: 14 inches

So in total that makes his tail reach up to a height of 25 inches... which is actually a lot more than I thought.

edit: and a rough guesstimation...

That picture is totally how I imagine you in my mind, Tiffanys.  Except I picture thinner thighs.
 
 
My gripe of the day is:  getting the munchies while buzzed.  I've been drinking steadily since mid-afternoon (currently finishing my 3rd Panic Attack, after a Sam Adams or two), and suddenly I could go for some fast food - a hamburger, or Taco Bell.  Anything.  But I am alone and too responsible to drive, so I will have to forage around the house instead.
It took an hour to write; I figured it'd take an hour to read.

I didn't even buy my last course's literature. Everything I needed to know was already available for free on the internet :]

Only one concerns me atm. No idea whether it's necessary.


Also, when a prof tells us to buy a physical copy of his lecture notes, instead of posting them like everyone else.

The fact that my laptop has too few USB slots... now I can't play steam games (which reside on an external HDD) with my PS3 controller (which requires a bluetooth dongle) while I'm copying anime from my anime drive to my usb stick - at least as long as I still want to be able to operate stuff like the steam overlay and chat, which require a logitech dongle for my wireless keyboard and mouse >.>

And the fact that it takes almost an hour to copy a mere 50 GiB from my anime drive to the stick... I wanna play, dammit >:(

I don't think so... me needing a fifth USB slot happens about once in a blue moon, so the hub would probably break or disappear before I use it again (I have memories of actually using one, from back in the days when I still had my huge, loud and slow old pc... but I don't recall having seen it over the last two or three years).

On laptops I wouldn't expect more than two USB ports per side.
Though for larger PCs I would need at least 7 altogether.

That thanks to my boss, work is going paranoid about locking doors. Especially to doors that we operators do not have keys to, that we should have keys.

Too Much Paranoias

That I've travelled half way across the country to see family and friends and I'm getting increasingly ill. :(

Be glad that you don't live in the US, otherwise that statement would have been even worse :]

Edit: Paypal. I've done all the steps to remove the limitation of my account, but it's still there.
...and I've been waiting for a response from them about it for two years.

Just make a new one? I made a new account not long ago and it took all of 5 minutes. Just had to check an e-mail to confirm it's mine or something.

Ah, but I'd have probably just got a plane if I was in the states, not spent most of my day freezing on trains

Getting company-sponsored spam both from and at work.  I'm not fucking joining Weight Watchers no matter how many goddamn meeting invites or flyers they send me.  I'm 5 foot 7 inches tall and about 165 pounds; I have no interest nor much need to drop any weight.

Old stupid hippies that think nothing of pulling out in front of you and not trying to accelerate out of harms' way when the speed limit on the road they pull out onto is 45 or better. Dunno maybe they got to take their medical marijuana to work today.
