Depending on the state you live in, you may have protective rights that prohibit being thrown out at such short notice, even when living with your parents rent-free.

An outer door without a lock is not secure. You need to nail some wood over that hole, and go buy a lock for that door.

It appears to be in the attic. That should prove at least a bit of disincentive to unwanted entry.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice...

Well it seems like she really has completely forgotten about everything that happened last night and I'm not on the street yet. All I could think about in bed was the number of times I'd voiced my fear of being kicked out on the boards versus the number of times it's actually happened, and I honestly can't tell at this point if I'm just being angsty and complaining about things before I know the real situation or if it's natural to be jumpy about it when honestly I've been kicked out for less.

So for the time being I'll just work towards getting out of here when my tax return puts a little cash in my pocket and limit to only posting about getting thrown out once it actually happened.

Bookmarked and reading over now, this will be handy in the future even if I'm not in the same kind of circumstance, thanks.

In the meantime, you should find some doorstops and shims and stuff to jam in your jamb.

Well, I think I'm screwed in my 'Programming Languages' class.

I couldn't finish a C program* in time and got depressed and slept through the class when it was due, the prof doesn't accept late assignments at all. The next class day was canceled due to snow storm. Then I get an email that the next assignment which was given out on the day I missed is due next Wednesday giving me all of two days (rather than a week and a half) to do it seeing as no one will respond to my requests to be informed about what the assignment is. The cherry on top is that I suck at coding; know concepts well, but can't remember proper syntax or names of most functions in any language for the life of me. Oh, and also the quizzes in the class are writing out programs on paper with no reference material, meaning I get an automatic zero on them before I even begin. Fuck I hope LISP, prolog and python are easier than C.

*Motherfucking malloc and having to manage memory directly...

If your problem is memory management, things can only get better.

Syntax and ordering, not so much.

To a degree, getting better at coding is just practice. It is a largely mechanical operation. If you practice it enough, and don't have any serious barriers to learning it (e.g. dsylxeia), you will eventually grow more comfortable and fluent with the language.

Making good programs... that's art.

I don't actually know which one Brent means. Unless he means all of them.

Oh hey I've never had a real migraine before. Hooray for new experiences!

I've spent the better part of two months fighting off a serious cold and it came back with a vengeance last night. Unfortunately, between inclement weather and sickness I've called out too much lately already, so I was forced to spend a 9 and a half hour shift coughing up my lungs and miserable.

Ted Belmont · « **Reply #1893 on:** February 13, 2011, 10:33:19 PM »

Yeah so I just found out my girlfriend is married.

Büge · « **Reply #1894 on:** February 13, 2011, 11:27:49 PM »

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

That sucks, Ted... but really, there can be no better avatar for that post.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... *breathes* ...ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, man.

Ok so I confronted her about it, and she says they're separated, but no divorce paperwork has been filed yet, and he still considers them as being married. Still not sure how I feel about that.
