Professor: still unhelpful! I have never had a professor say, "No, I don't have time to talk with you; I have to go meet the plumber." What is up? I am coming to him attempting to succeed in his class and being blown off and it's terrible but also so awful it's hilarious.

Three good things:
1. Starbucks has Cranberry Bliss Bars back for the holidays. *____* This is going to be a repeat of last year when me and a few other co-workers were like OMNOMNOMNOMNOM for a week, and then had to put up with our bosses laughing at us when we were like, "WE ARE DYING.". HOWEVER, IT WAS WORTH IT THEN, AND IT WILL BE WORTH IT NOW. >|

2.

That really should count as two, all things considered.

3. Dreadnought by Cherie Priest is out. I considered it, but I wanted to wait until my personal book critics weighed in! One has, and it's about what I expected. Boneshaker disappointed me a tad, but I kind of reread it with readjusted expectations and it was much better. SO I have high hopes of going in and just turning off my critical brain for this one! Historical AU by a lady, featuring a lady! He had me at "explosions". I will reward myself with it for surviving my Spanish oral exam.

Who is ready for 2010 to beat it on out of here? *raises hands*

He seriously did -- it's not actually the first time he's blown me off for the plumber. He did it on Tuesday, too.

OMG, TOM HARDY. WITH A SHOTGUN. AND A BLOODY HEAD. IN A SUIT. *_____*

I was really disappointed by Boneshaker (that whole middle part was terribly boring, imo), but I'm going to read that Dreadnought review and maybe I'll give the book a try.

I KNOW. TRUE STORY: half the reason I love that picture is that I am geeking out over his trigger discipline. STARS IN MY EYES, TOM HARDY. HUGE, SPARKLING STARS.

I also found Boneshaker boring; the reread helped because I got to enjoy the strengths of it. But I am still excited, predictably! If you get to Dreadnought I would love to know what you think of it. :)
