I am stupid

My math triumph was short lived.

Turns out I was so thrilled about "midterm over - yay spring break!" that I completely failed to notice that for this online class, spring break didn't in fact translate to "no homework". It just meant, "no quiz this week".

In an incredible feat of test-taking bullshittery, I raced through the class materials and managed to pass this evening's quiz. However, it does mean I'm doing 2 weeks worth of homework this week :/

I do not see myself fencing tomorrow, even if my new blade shows up :(

On the other hand, doing annuities/amortizations has revealed the TI's finance function, and it's just sweet!

Tangential, but not unrelated: D. and I both need a Jeeves. A full-service old-school English butler who will remember our appointments, plan dinner, keep us on schedule, and lay our clothes out in the morning.

Maybe not Stephen Fry Jeeves - too tall, I don't know where we'd put him. Maybe a mini-Jeeves, to store under the bed when we don't need him.

Nah, "stupid" wouldn't be capable of rapid study and pulling off a brilliant quiz save ... sounds to me like proof that you know your stuff, even better than you consciously realize. :-)

P.S. If you locate a mini-Jeeves, will you clone one for me? Pretty please?

Oh yes please! Or even better: A Kryten from Red Dwarf, who cheers and bounces at the very thought of ironing!

Yes, that WOULD be be better! Kryten doesn't need to eat or sleep and he dismantles for easy storage!

Jeeves? Our house needs Mary freakin' Poppins! It's gonna take a whole heap of magic to straighten us out! ;)
