I determined that it will be cheaper and easier to buy a used bike in San Francisco and sell it at the end of the summer than to try and bring my bike here on the plan or ship it.
Against all odds I found a subletter.
I also found someone to take the last room open in our house for next year.
The only downside is that my subletter has already moved in, so I am semi-homeless for the next week and I still need to pack all of my stuff and store it. Luckily it looks like one of my roommates is not going to be around much, so I am crashing in her room for now. Also, it will be a good opportunity to go through all things and see what I can get rid of.
This one-of-a-kind sandwich features two thick and juicy boneless white meat chicken filets (Original Recipe® or Grilled), two pieces of bacon, two melted slices of Monterey Jack and pepper jack cheese and Colonel’s Sauce. This product is so meaty, there’s no room for a bun!
I went to KFC with 6 guys and we all ordered Double Downs, which I had not heard of before today. Amazingly, I did not feel sick after eating mine.
I cannot believe how much the on campus wireless network at Michigan can suck sometimes. Not only does it not extend onto the Diag at all, but it doesn’t even work properly in various parts of the library. Yesterday I was sitting right next to the Fishbowl and I was getting time out errors every 15 minutes!
I spend at least an hour or two in the Ugli almost every day. I realized I have gotten completely used to people openly eating and talking within the library – not just in the lobby and cafe, but right next to the stacks.
I wonder if it was always like this in the the Ugli, or if it is as recent development. Although I didn’t spend very much time in them, I always got the impression that the the Rock and Gelman were super quiet food-free spaces.
Interestingly, the one thing I don’t see a lot is people napping, which I both observed and partook in both the Rock and the SciLi. I am 98% sure it is because there are few if any couches here. It’s all blocky wooden chairs and tables.
Daylight Savings Time has again reminded me how weird the light feels in Michigan. Today the sun sunset was at 7:45 pm; compared to 7:06pm in New York, 6:56pm in Providence, 7:01pm in Chicago. The extra ~40 minutes is disconcerting. I have started eating dinner at 7 or 8pm and have trouble settling down and doing homework before it gets dark.
Also, the weather has been incredible. I’ve been going to the Arb two times already this week.
