They're everywhere!

Someone messaged me on OK Cupid, saying he knew I wasn't looking for long-distance pen pals but just wanted to say I sounded cool. Seeing that he was in Pittsburgh and about my age, I asked him if he was by any chance attending CMU. Indeed he was. It just figures.

(I suspect only some of my friends will know what I mean by that. Shit, I'm being cryptic about something that isn't even private. In my defense, it's almost an inside joke.)

I don't know what the CMU fight song is, but I bet it involves bagpipes. :-)

Oh dear, you're probably right.

I knew somebody who knew the fight song once... I found that disturbing, adn that was even *at* CMU :-)

I don't think anyone at my high school knew our fight song. Everyone knew the Alma Mater (sung at every frickin event), but I don't know if the fight song was ever sung. Then again, maybe it was sung at sporting events and I just never heard it 'cause I never went to any. Here at Cal we seem to have half a dozen fight songs, and I only know bits and pieces of 'em and have no idea which ones are more "official" than others.

CMU needs to stop being like cancer. A cluster appears, and just when you think you are safe, more crops up elsewhere. It is completely resistent to treatments, too. The only bit it doesn't have in common with cancer is the whole makes-you-into-a-bald-stick-figure-from-chemo thing.

Wuteva.

Ok, so maybe that was harsh. Still, though, those fuckers are EVERYWHERE. I do not recall having put in that order.

In the car today, I found out that of the adults, I was the only one who had never been to the campus.

So, I guess I will have to see this place the plagues me so.

Be sure to check out Wean Hall. Sometimes they have robots wandering around.
