Filing Cabinets and More About Elevators

Quote of the day: Way not to fail. -Paul
Song of the day: No Such Thing by John Mayer


So, pretty good day despite the rough start. Woke up at 10:01 for my 10 am class. oops. Made it there only 10 min late though, so not bad.

After class I rushed to daka because I was starving and I was the first person in line at the grill. I was holding a bagel as I approached, and Earl said hello and grabbed an egg - he knew what I was going to order! It was so awesome haha and delicious as usual.

At 2 pm when I usually go back to my room, I went to Paul's office instead - I'm trying to cut down on walking during taper. Anyway, he assigned Rob and I the slightly ridiculous task of replacing his 4-drawer filing cabinet with a 5-drawer one. We were supposed to do it tonight at work but we started early and "trashed" Paul's office in the process. Whatever. We accomplished our goal after practice and there's now three drawers of files, one of food, and the top one's empty. EMPTY. so, he still has 4 drawers worth of stuff either way. dumb.

"Paul wants us to replace his filing cabinet so he could have one drawer for food and one empty drawer." - Rob.
This had Paul chasing Rob and me laughing my butt off on my way to my 3 o'clock class.


Later, when I was actually at work and during the filing cabinet episode, I actually got the video thing to work! Paul bought an external hard drive, and like magic all the videos transfered from the camera to that. Well, I hope they did. It was taking a long time so I left in the middle of the process. Here's hoping it worked!

I did really well on the elevator front today. I took the elevators all around campus. I also took a new picture of the elevator in Riley - check out the buttons.... >ll<...>l<........what's the difference? I asked Nick about them and he told me "one is fast, and one is rapid." But I'm pretty sure those mean the same thing. He meant that one button will close/open the doors faster than te other one. This may need experimenting. Then later Lee told me that in Fuller (I think) there is no line between the arrows, it's just ><>. So I'm not sure what that's all about.

I also got some beautiful flowers today. Picture tomorrow maybe. They were left for me on my computer when I came back from work. So sweet. =D
