I've talked to several people since I posted earlier today, and I appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers for my family. I am doing fine. My dad had told me a few weeks ago to be sure I had my suit with me when I came home, so her death wasn't a surprise to anyone. I was a little surprised that it happened so quickly. The hospice nurse who was there Saturday had talked about a little bit longer timeframe, but nothing is ever certain. I am glad I got to see her when I did, though. I don't know if she knew I was there, but I know. I don't believe I'll ever regret the time I spent with my grandparents (or spend with the one I have left).
There was a pretty bad school bus accident near my high school this afternoon. Four buses and a car were involved, and several people were taken to the hospital. From what I heard, no one was seriously hurt, though several had sore necks. I hope this causes some consideration of putting seat belts on school buses. I don't know that kids would wear them, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be there.
It's nice to see someone else has decided to continue blogging. Lee said he was going to blog everyday in December, and he made it almost halfway into the month without missing a day. He did have to go back and do research at UTSI, so I can't say I blame him for neglecting his blogging. While I'm on the subject, some time around now is the anniversary of my blog. I think it's today, but I could be wrong. I don't have the original posts online anymore, and it wasn't "The Daily Jeffrey" back then, but I started blogging on or about this day 2002. I miss that webpage. I liked that format, and it worked well, as evidenced by all the people who eventually took it for themselves. It was also nice to have the time to do all the work on it. That page had a blog, several lengthy editorials (about one a month), plus links, pictures, updated class schedules, and all sorts of other things. It went away when CBU deleted my student account. I still have the files, but I can't repost them because of the formatting that I liked so much. It just doesn't work on the free hosting sites, and I'm too cheap to buy a domain.
I forgot to watch Mystery Science Theater 3000: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians again. I got started watching a Stargate marathon, then a BSG rerun, then talking to people. The conversations were a little odd because my internet connection is bad (I'm connecting to someone in my neighborhood's wireless network), so I'd get about 5 messages at once, reply, wait several minutes, then get replies all bunched together again, as my connection went from good to bad to good. If I missed any messages or took a while to respond, that's why.
Grades finally came out today, and I'm pleased, though I am a little surprised that the grades weren't a little higher across the board in Inviscid. The final was rough for several people, but I really expected Vakili to be a little more generous on the overall grades.
