So Easy, No Wonder Jeffrey is #1

The internet. So much fun just adding my name into (generally) well-known slogans. I have several and can get more from the website if I need to. I'll use some of the better ones as my titles for the next several days.

Not much to talk about from yesterday. I did some things around the house (still in Memphis), ate lunch with my parents, loaded up a few things, and drove back to my apartment in Tullahoma. Nothing eventful or noteworthy that I remember.

Today was a return to classes. Math was a "recitation" day, a term which I'd never heard until another person had it for their math class this semester, then I had the same thing. We went over the midterm, which I'd done as well as anyone in the class on (6 / 7). I feel that I should have gotten credit for the other problem, too. I did it the way the book said to, and he just didn't like that method. %^&#!

Inviscid keeps veering from fluid mechanics into weird relations that are useful, but not directly so. We derived some more forms of the Governing Equations. I like these forms better, but they are just manipulations of the other forms. And I think this book derived them backwards of my undergrad book, which is throwing me off a little. We covered about a chapter and a half today, too. Why can people not plan chapters better? 3 pages then 30, then 5, then another 25. I get that they are trying to present the concepts, but add some examples, work some problems. Something.

It's a lot later than I was hoping to get to sleep tonight. No more cartoons for me, I guess. More tomorrow.
