today in class, lanegran was giving a powerpoint about the urban environment, which somehow very quickly devolved into a 20 minute long diatribe about animals he hates. he then said the following things:
"i actually hate squirrels. i have the neighborhood record for squirrel kills."
"next time you see a pigeon, just think about how much i hate it."
it was pretty funny. i did well on my midterm, and while i am not sure how i feel about lanegran (i find him grating and arrogant and intentionally obnoxious), i do like the class for the most part. i'm pretty sure this is an unpopular opinion, but i really like when professors share details of their personal lives, especially scandalizing and inappropriate shit. totally into it. i have long denied being a gossip but i might have to concede defeat now.
today i feel totally in over my head with regards to technology. gis has pretty seriously kicked my ass for the day (and i'm not done with last week's lab yet, so i gotta finish it tomorrow and then work on the next one too) so i gave up (though i did make some progress) and i thought i'd go to the infoshop and install koha on the computer so we can have a really kickass catalog and an opac and shit (pretty unnecessary, but cool), but it's totally hard! i might have to reconsider this whole lofty library plan, or else call on the librarians to come and help me. bogus.
still unsure as to what to write my paper about. i don't care about the environment nearly as much as my concerned environmental studies classmates, so it is hard for me to invest myself in this. i should probably give a fuck, though. am thinking of writing about froading, but dgaf.
