Well that was more than slightly agitating.

I stayed after work a couple hours so that I could make my class in Idaho Falls. I mentally checked out at or around five, so I really had nothing to do but sit there and stare blankly at my monitor. Staying at work is worse when you're not going to get paid for it. Then came the trip over to the college. I've mentioned before that Idaho Falls has no right to be as congested as it is for a town its size, but today that really hit home. There are three routes connecting the vibrant east side of town with downtown on the east side. Of the three routes, the one with a 25mph speed limit is the fasted even a couple hours past rush hour.

I scramble in to class at 7:05. They're talking about how the class has been cancelled due to lack of interest. Since I was really counting on this class for a number of things - not least of which clinching the raise I'm about to ask for - that was a bummer. I wasn't as upset as one guy, though, who sounded like he wasn't going to take the class next semester when it will actually be offered. So then the teacher gives a big, long explanation-slash-sales pitch about how great the class is going to be, how many different career paths it can help one with, and blah blah blah. All this on a class that I won't be able to take until next year (and maybe not even then because it might conflict with my wedding and honeymoon... crap... just thought of that... crap).

So it's 9:15 and I am finally home, no more edumicated than I was when I clocked out at work.
