Well Screw You, Too!

After much deliberation, I decided to drop a Sociology of the Family class.  Since this is the end of the third week of classes, and it's a bit late to take another one, I am stuck with just four this semester.  Still FT, but it sucks that I am not taking the max number of courses.

Why did I drop the class?

I am interested in the subject matter.  Based on what I saw so far, I had little doubt of an A.  AND, I had already finished the term paper that's due March 12.

But I can't stand the prof.

Or, more precisely, she can't stand me.  Or any other men for that matter.  I think she has a lot of baggage, and misandry is definitely in the air that she breathes.

I sat through five lectures and every time I kept asking myself why I was there.  I could skip class, but she also gave random in-class assignments that are graded.  So damned if I do, damned if I don't, eh?

So I figured, well, I don't need this credit.  I don't need this course.  I am not in sociology.  And I certainly don't need this shit.

Today being the drop deadline, I dropped the damn class.  The only unfortunate bit of that is that I won't have a chance to trash her on her teaching evaluations.  Yeah, and of course my term paper is wasted (but as you well know, in business we call that SUNK COST, eh?).

On a different note, this freezing and thawing weather this winter has been horrific.  One day it's -25, and the next it's 20 degrees warmer.  So snow melts, forms puddles everywhere, and freezes back into a fucking hockey rink.  Makes walking very treacherous.  So do be careful as you navigate the winter roads.

And now we're heading back into the cold.  From a high of zero Celcius yesterday we are getting a low of -22 today and -18 tomorrow.  Here we go again!

Stay warm if you're in cold climes.
