Rainy Weekend

It's been raining for the past week. Not really outright downpouring, but it's been close at times. It's gone from drizzling to pretty heavy stuff most of the time. While I don't mind rain much, it can drag on at times, which makes everyone cranky here. I'm always surprised at how annoyed people get with falling water. Most of the time (When it's not really really cold out) it's great to walk in. It's just water, and I'm not really afraid of melting.This week is the annual Haunted Hayride at Norwich, which is both good and bad. Good, because it's fun to scare the crap out of everyone who goes through it. Bad, because everyone running the thing thought that the entire Tactics club (The Norwich games club for which I'm the president for) wasn't coming this year. Big communications breakdown, and my NUAC rep for the club was giving us bad information on what was going on. So I got to spend a good part of this weekend trying to figure things out. Fortunently, we were able to get a site and thing to do. I helped out this morning setting up. Learned how telephone poles were put into the ground and gave one of the other guys a brief lesson on why the entire campus is essentially built on a huge sandpile. (Campus was at one point under 200 feet of water, about 10,000 years ago due to glacial stuff) But, we're doing the event, and hopefully I can get some people from the club to actually help out. And, I got my midterm grades back! As and Bs, which is really good, because I've been needing a boost in the GPA. I've noticed that I've been working better on things this year, most likely because of the two jobs that I've held over the summer, and the things that I learned from them... And with that, back to Nation Building homework...
