Lalala look ma, an update!

There's a guy painting our front door. One of my flatmates is sleeping in the living room. Why she is sleeping in the living room when she has a perfectly servicable (queen sized how the hell did she manage to drag it in here) bed in her own room, where she wouldn't be next to the painting dude, I will never know. Thus, she can keep her pissiness to herself, say thankya.

Had a final yesterday, yay and joy. There was the ten-minute run of sheer terror where I went through the questions and couldn't remember anything. Fun times. Managed to answer everything, and logically, so I think I'm alright. Just. There was a very long and frustrating mental argument over the differences between the pituitary and the hypothalamus. Could not remember for the life of me. Thankfully, I picked the right one.

Have decided, inspired by Cam's Century Bike Ride, that I'm going to do the 10K in Davis next November. Not nearly as impressive, but it's a goal, right? Right.

The dude with the paint has left now, and our door is a pretty blue color. Flatmate is still pretending to be asleep. So. VERY. Weird.

My birthday is tomorrow! :D There will be family coming up, and greek/armenian food (don't look at me, that's what the restraunt is advertising). Also? There will be another class over.

Lalala I should probably go do the dishes. Even if they're not my dishes. Maybe it will convince the flatmate to go sleep in her own room, and I can watch a movie. Or I'll just come back and stare at radiographs all day in prep for that final, and plot if Ace is actually going to do anything for her B-day. Hmmmm.

Explain your Live Journal name and its meaning.
For as long as I can remember, my grandpa would always call me 'little boodledops'. It probably has some meaning somewhere that I don't know about, but for me, it's my grandpa's name for me. Then, when I started my undergrad at UCD, they needed a code name for the computers that was original. I was on a LotR kick at the time, and must have tried every single name of Aragorn's, and the other Walkers, and a few random folks I was particularly fond of, but evidently I was hardly the first person to think of that. Nothing worked. Then, I thought of my grandpa's nickname. But it didn't fit the space requirements - too long. So I shortened it to 'bodldops'. It kinda stuck.

There was a meme a little while back that asked what usernames on your flist you liked and I listed yours as one, cos it's always appealed and tickled me. It makes me think 'bottle tops' and I just like it - it rolls off the tongue in a rather pleasing manner. So, it's nice to now finally learn its origin. :)
