Birthday bungles
Today's a busy day:
- I had an hour-long meeting with UW co-op people to present the OARBS concept to them
- I had a CS246 assignment due
- I had an Econ 102 assignment due
- Today's the day to make the decision for the OARBS logo
- ... oh yeah, it's my birthday!
- Dan's mail - I step into Dan's room to say hi, as I usually do. He's sprawled oafishly across his bed, so I sit in his chair. Which happens to be facing his computer screen. Which is opened up to the most recent e-mail he got, from Jenn, specifying what they got me for my birthday.
- Jenn's printout - Ignoring this, I print out the Econ assignment and head downstairs to the printer to pick it up. I scoop up all the paper there. At the end of my assignment, I realize I grabbed Jenn's printed receipt with the purchase price of my gift. (And her MasterCard number - cool!)
- Denver's phonecall - "Hello?" "Oh, hi Colin! So, I hear you're having a birthday party tomorrow?!" "Erm. Nope, no-one's told me anything about that." [awkward silence for 30 seconds] "Is anyone else home?"
