What a crappy predicament
 
A hate the chaos theory

-i have cough for 2 weeks
-door left unlocked while i go to the medical center to get drugs
-money + phone charger stolen from room
-my phone = my alarm clock
-phone becomes dead, no more alarm clock until i get a new phone charger
-can't get to best buy until return trip to atlanta home in a week

So, today I'm getting a new alarm clock, because I tried using an internet alarm clock yesterday morning and it failed to wake me up. My roommate usually wakes up around the same time I do, and he woke me up. Except I wasn't awake at all... I talk in my sleep.

This resulted in me being late to a class where attendance is required. Crap! It'll likely hurt my grade...

And so today, I'm presenting a paper in class and the class starts at 9:30. I can't trust my internet alarm clock, and I can't trust my roommate (bc I can't trust myself when im asleep and talking).

So here I am, 6:30 in the morning, and wide awake from an energy drink. Argh.

At least the paper I wrote is good. But I got no sleep. I fear oversleeping in my bed. SOAB.

athens, college town, no car. nearest mall (or sign of society) is long driving distance.

all the stores are family owned, none of which are best-buy/office depot/software etc oriented as far as I know.

for instance, i have not seen a mcdonalds in a month.

They don't have a cell-phone store in a college town?

they do have them, but you need a car. the main section of the campus and downtown are very different from normal cities.

it's about a ten minute drive down a strip-mall looking highway to the Target and the Walmart and maybe a BestBuy.

if there is one on the campus, I'm unaware of it. I've looked.
