I'm psyched that all my classes for tomorrow were cancelled. However, it would have been nice to know this a month or two ago when I was planning my Thanksgiving. Not that I'm not looking forward to a great homemade dinner at the bro's place in Tahoe, with Sam out here, but I'm just saying...

On a completely different topic, I was all set to be excited by my huge FedEx claim check (some of the items shipped, i.e. my TV and VCR, were damaged), and sadly opened up the envelope to see its only $107.66. Apparently, they say that I had a maximum liability of $100, plus shipping charges, with no declared value, which is so wrong since I definately declared value on the big ticket items, i.e. my TV, and the TV and VCR were in different boxes, and each box should be insured up to $100. And the claims guy I've been dealing with never picks up his phone. Grrr.

But on the upside, when I called to finally change my address on my car insurance, I found out the my insurance rates actually went down a bit out here, contrary to what they told me a few months ago. Sweet. And my Matlab class is over. 1 down, 4 more to go.
