Here I sit... waiting for a darn E-book from Amazon. Why in the world, you ask, am I be purchasing an E-book??? I need to read this darn book called Embedded Autonomy by Peter Evans for Soc 5. I'm not a cheap person, I really DID intend to buy this book. I even tried to go get the book last Thursday. But the funniest thing happened... both Neds and the ASUC Bookstore are already restocking for next semester!!!! I'm so late that I can't even purchase any more books for this semester! I figured they'd probably be done by today. Ha! I went in there looking like a loser cuz the lady said, "Honey, most the other students have already bought all their books this semester. We're not selling any more books!"

I left Gabs drooling over Jake in Rhetoric 20 early so that I could go to the Berkeley Public Library to check out the book. I ended up with some dsylexic librarian *literally* who couldn't help me if her life depended on it. Disheartened, I left the library empty-handed. I thought I could just cheat the system and call up my friend and ask her to summarize the book for me. Let me tell you... it sucks having a conscience... I just couldn't do it. I just HAD to read the book for myself. I'm getting desperate... I have to turn in a page-long paper of what I thought about the book. One-page, no biggie... but I just feel like I NEED to read the book. I finally broke down and just bought the sucker via E-book. (I hate having to read things on-line... it hurts my eyes!) So now I sit here waiting for the file to be e-mailed to me. Paper due in 7.5 hours and counting...
