Only 11 Months in a Year

I don't actually have much to say about chapter 5 of that horrible book, because this time it actually made a bit of sense. I think that might have something to do with the fact the chapter had something like 5 authors. They clearly require all that brain power. But no, the technological ideas they were presenting made a lot of sense and was even almost interesting. Although, I have to ask, if this technology has been in the works since 1975 (although work only resumed in 1991 - still a substantial amount of time has passed since then) and is so miraculous, then why haven't we heard more about it? And other than that, the chapter really just passed me by. Thank the gods that I don't have to read the next chapter until some time in October.

Now, speaking of October... I somehow muddled up all the months and thought October was next month. Which normally is not that much of a problem, unless you stop and take our review assignment into consideration. Normally, its due at the beginning of October, but if we want it published, we need to submit by the end of September. Silly me, thinking October was next month... thats right, I started the assignment for the published submission date which I thought was sometime this week. Wouldn't have been a problem if there weren't two submission dates, because then I just would have gone on until my diary threw it up at me. So now, I've gone and gotten out a new release dvd, and turns out 1) I don't quite need it just yet and 2) I'm going to have to buy another one in a month. I sigh.
