Okay, after two episodes, I have to say, I am kind of loving Fringe. Basic premise = awesome.

     Peter: "That's impossible!"

Walter: "Luckily, I'm a mad scientist."

See? Awesome.

Also, Lance Reddick!!

Also, Joshua Jackson grew up fine. He doesn't look like a young George Clooney; rather he looks like George Clooney looks now, except... younger. I am 100% okay with this.

In other news, I finally tracked down Fake Tutor. Result: once I actually collared her, she was very helpful, and I now have a reading ticket for the library for the year. No borrowing privileges, but then I was only allowed borrow approximately 0.00000001% of the library collection as a regular undergrad, so. This does not exactly make a huge difference. I don't have a student card, though, which means I technically won't have access to the computer labs in general, and literally won't have access to those that require you to swipe your card to get in. This is not a big deal; I pretty much only need to use the labs for printing, so as long as I am not caught in a random ID check during the ten minutes it will take me to do so, I am fine. Otherwise, my account is still active, which means access to scholarly databases is still a-go, and likewise proxy access from home. \o/

Thus, tomorrow is for hunting professors, photocopying reading lists, syllabi, and lecture plans, and generally seeing What's What and how I am going to plan my time. Which means that, come Monday, I am (Sort Of) Back To School. I obviously haven't heard anything yet from the *mumble mumble* I sent my CV/cover letter to, since it's only been a few days (note to self: be home early on Monday to give them a follow-up call, maybe), but man! I don't want to count my eggs before they're hatched, but I also need to try and plan for that Possibility, vis-a-vis time management. Hmmm.

ETA: What! They have gone back to closing the library again on Sundays! Lamesauce.

Yay for Fake Tutor finally getting it together! And books and CV and stuff. Not for the closing library, though. Library gets no cheers.

Huzzah for library access and such! *cheers* *and crosses fingers for Possibilities*

Yay for moving forward, kiddo.

Also yay for Fringe. I am enjoying it quite a bit. Mostly because of hot Joshua Jackson and his wacky, mad scientist father.
