Sleep VS Money or Annoying School Projects

I actually got a call from work today... at 7:30 in the morning... which I slept though... When I finally woke up and heard the message it was about 11am. I was told that the shift was for 8:30 am so I was too late... "you snooze, you lose" was the actual term given... The thing was, my mom sort of told me about the message at about 7:45 am (when she heard it) but said that it would probably be for later, as they left a message. Being half asleep, I left it at that, although I had a nagging suspicion that it was in fact for a morning shift, as why the hell else would they phone at 7:30 in the fucking morning... With not getting this shift the total days since I last worked rises to TEN! I think that I'll keep a running tally here or something, if only for my own amusement.
I've been working on an annoying school project for my "From Script to Screen" class... We're supposed to do a visual scrapbook on certain topics (mood, plot, and character). This can be anything from short films, photo essays, collages, etc... although it was pretty much spelled out that photo essays was the preferred method (our prof likes to talk like she wants anything and everything but then makes it fairly clear (subtly) that she only likes certain things) My photo essay (in 3 parts) is so far something like 300 megs and 200 photos... and I still have one more part to do! It's becoming a time sink... Oh yeah, I also have to figure out how to have a song play in the background during a powerpoint slideshow... so far it will not play as slides go by, but play the whole song on one slide... Maybe I'm just missing something here.... I must be, because that limitation is stupid and lame...
Donkey Konga is retardedly fun.
My NHL 2K5 season is now in the Stanley Cup finals, and the opposing Philadelphia Flyers are a pain in the ass... It might not be so bad if my players could stop getting injured... Luckily you can force them to play through minor stuff... although they end up sucking a tad. Seriously though, it seems like 4 guys get hurt a game! I'm forced to use freakin' minor league guys now! The Manitoba Moose in the Stanley Cup finals! Who'da thunk it?!?!?
