1. Congrats
to Nate Silver: the real winner of election night. I like when nerdy professions get to be cool for awhile. Also, the twitter account @nateDRUNKsilver is the funniest thing I've read all week.
2. For the
most part, it seemed pretty civil on facebook on election night (at least
compared to 2008). Maybe I just did a good job blocking the extremists
throughout October.
3. I loved
South Park’s take on the election/ Disney’s acquisition of Star Wars. South
Park may be crude, but it does a good job at pointing out the absurd in current
events. Also, it aired Wednesday night with a dead-on representation of Obama’s
acceptance speech from early Wednesday morning; that’s just impressive.
4. I got a
piece of candy in one of my classes for correctly identifying what significant
event happened on January 28, 1986. My interest in space is finally paying off
in my business classes.
5.
Registration for spring is next week, and I’m really hoping it goes smoothly. I
don’t want to reorganize my schedule six times just to get into classes I need.
6. I know
there’s still a month, but I’m seeing a light at the end of the semester
tunnel. Yay!
7. Current NaNoWriMo
word count: 17,619. I made a pretty awesome excel sheet to track daily word
count goals, actual daily word count, total word count, and some other writing
stats. I don’t know if I’m more proud of my writing or my spreadsheet.
