two plus two

we are all dragging our sorry carcasses toward the finish line. some will be missing their sanity, others will be aproximately 200 words short, and still others will contemplate bothering to return return after the holidays. in any case, the finish line will arrive and winter break will soon welcome us with a chilly embrace.

well that sounds all very kittens and cotton candy, however, since they do things differently around here, there are certain classes that do not wrap up in two weeks. quick explanation: the class ends but papers are still due after we return. two plus two equals not a real vacation. i need another cigarette.
