I have been so unmotivated lately. I have not wanted to work on any of the projects that are due this week, study for next week's finals, or update my blog. I just want to mess around and waste time. Good thing that my hard final is at the beginning of the week so that I can get it out of the way.

Anyway, I had my first date with Christine on Saturday. It was all planned out because she said that she was tired of planning things, and that she wanted no hand in this. Ok! So I thought that we could go out for dinner, come back and play cards (she had expressed interest in beating me :P), and possibly watching a movie. Well, about 30 minutes before the date she called me and said that she had some stuff that just came up, and that we would not be able to have the date as planned. She suggested going to Arby's instead. Ok! Talking with her made me realize that she is really quite an interesting person. After dinner, we went to a concert that she had to be at and that was that. Simple and to the point. I had fun though and I would definitely be up for a second date (if you consider the other one a date; I do). I am getting the impression that she would be up for another date too, but not until finals are over. She had to pull an all nighter last night because she had so much to do. Blah.

This weekend was bad to the Packers. After winning six in a row, they fell to the Philadelphia Eagles. I will admit that the Eagles were playing very well, but I also attribute the loss to the poor performance of the Packers. Brett Favre didn't even throw one touchdown, and it took the backup quarterback, Craig Nall, to get any touchdowns for the Packers. I almost cried. I don't want to mention the score because it was that bad but go ahead and look it up if you want. Sniffle. The Packers play Detroit at home this week, so I believe that they will bounce back with this game. The Packers beat Detroit 38-10 on the road, so this game should be a breeze, but not a given. I have learned that nothing is a given when you are talking about NFC teams.

I got Linux installed on my desktop, but not without a fight. After Mandrake, and Suse both had problems installing and booting, I talked to some Linux gurus and they said that I probably have a piece of hardware that is bad. That would explain why things were crashing in Windows Server 2003 as well. I am guessing that it is the RAM but I really don't feel motivated to test out that hypothesis. Maybe after finals I will. So far I like Linux, because it looks like a great Windows alternative. I am not going to say that Linux is better than Windows because I really have not played with it that much, but it looks like fun.

Speaking of fun, I am just finishing up my English assignment, and I like it so much that I am going to post it here later. I think this assignment is the best creative writing that I have ever done. So look for that later.
