Irony

The Ironic Item of the Day:

No, not the fact that there is major renovation going on down the hall and we have been hearing this all day.

It is actually the fact that I can send emails to everyone everywhere, on the internet, except one of the professors in my department from whom I need to get to join my committee so I can defend and therefore graduate and therefore not get in trouble with my scholarship sponsors and therefore move on with my life.

AAAAuuuughHHHH!

In other happier news:
