Has anybody seen Fred lately? I went by her apartment to talk to her about something that none of you would understand and she wasn't there.

Finals. Contrary to popular belief, I have yet to make anyone cry. I'm actually looking forward to the next semester.

Now I just have to get through Christmas.

Oh come on! Of all the points in time to bring me back to, I end up in 2008! The person doing my job is completely incompetent and I now apparently have marking to do even though I haven't been a college professor in years!

This is not a good weekend, and I officially dislike Halloween. A lot.

I would love to turn around and admit that I actually have some smart students in my classes this semester. However, once again I have been disappointed by the amount of idiots that get accepted to Columbia University. There are possibly five students that don't make me want to ship them off to Siberia, on a good day there are six.

Also, the people who thought the world was going to end last week due to the LHC are complete and utter idiots. They are stupider than the majority of my students. That's saying rather a lot.

I feel massively geeky for saying this, nothing new there, but do I really have to wait a whole month for classes to start up again? I'm really looking forward to finishing up my graduate work.

Dr. McKay, do you have anything I can help with before I get bored and start testing what electrical equipment my power does and does not short circuit again? So far the does is everything. And the does not is nothing.

Uh...what was that? Where...why am I not on Atlantis?

Great...how am I going to explain this to Colonel Carter?

Fucking hell...

Finals are over and I just have a mountain of marking to do. The upside of this is that I no longer have to teach idiotic hormonal late teens that didn't even know what Newton's laws of motion were before they entered my classroom.

Thank god I don't have to deal with them for an entire summer. I'm trying to negotiate my timetable so that I no longer have to teach undergraduates and that I most definitely do not have to teach freshmen. Ever again.

I do have something to take up my time over the summer so at least I won't be bored.

Well now, isn't this just a barrel of laughs.

Frey? You alright?

Why, why, why are undergraduate students so stupid that they cannot grasp the basic facts of physics? These are people who want to major in the subject and yet they are far too stupid to grasp the basics! How my students managed to get into an Ivy League college is beyond me.

I think I should get a PhD student to teach these idiots and hope that by the time I teach them again that they can at least manage basic mathematics and know the simplest laws of physics!

Honestly. Idiots, the lot of them!

I have a couple of announcements to make. The first is that starting in January I will be teaching astrophysics at Columbia University. The second is that I will not be drinking tonight, at all.

I hate to disappoint you all, but there will be no drunk posts from me. Thank you.
