While the campus bus I was riding on careened down a hill before gearing up to make a left turn, some dude wandered out into the street between several cars and straight in front of the bus. The driver slammed the brakes and luckily only hit the guy in the arm, and while everyone on the bus watched the guy apathetically wandered off the other way. I'm beginning to think that health care costs in America should be proportional to a patient's culpability. This way people wouldn't have to pay through the nose for illnesses but perhaps would be dissuaded from some of the more rampant forms of idiocy. "What's that? You wandered in front of a speeding bus while chatting on your cell phone and got your arm broken? So sorry. Your insurance will cover the cost of a hacksaw."

So maybe I'm biased. Big deal.

Tomorrow night's events include, but are not limited to:
Kill Bill vol. 2 at 7, a friend's art show opening in the Vis Arts building from 7-10, a Return of the King costume contest (as one of four hobbits) at 9:45 and another friend's tropical-themed house party. How come it's only at the end of the semester that my social life starts booming?

As for the rest of the semester, I have a 10-page Medieval Lit paper (20% of the final grade) due on the 23rd, a 5-page research paper for Folklore (10%) and a 4-page research paper for Art Hist (20%) due on the 27th, and a 10-page research paper for Political Analysis (40%) due on the 29th. Something's gotta give.
