Because, if it was, then I could have one of these.
That's right, a Time-Turner.
In The Prisoner of Azkaban, McGonagall gives one to Hermione so that she can attend more classes than time would normally allow. (no, I don't remember the book that well, I just know how to use wikipedia).
So, what would I do if I had a Time-Turner:
1. Re-do the nap I had on Wednesday afternoon so that it was only 30 mins and not 3 hours.
2. Go to more yoga classes, I went to one Wednesday afternoon and it was the bright spot in my week.
3. But, most importantly, I would make this weekend into six days so that I could finish this insanely long paper that I have due on Monday for Legal Writing.
I'm going to get this rant out of my system quickly, I promise. So, the class is only a one hour credit, which means that with picking up extra hours this semester, it will have a fractional effect on my grades. However, the assignment due Monday is worth at least a 1/3 of our grade for the whole semester. And the English major in me wants to do well and not make a half-effort out of this whole thing. I want to impress my teacher, refrain from embarassing my alma mater, and prove that I'm worthy of taking Advanced Legal Writing next year (not really sure why I would want to torture myself in that way, save for the fact that law school has yet to completely beat out of me the desire to write).
So, if you happen to find this Time-Turner, let me know. I could really use it in the next three days.
But, there is some good news--the snowpocalypse of 2010 is headed for Columbia and we might get something other than disappointment in the morning, unlike last time. I have a growing distrust for meterologists, how hard is it to guess the weather? I mean, Jack Roper did in it Spartanburg for 30 years without a degree. What is wrong with the ABC weatherman here? You may be "Live at Main and Gervais" but you have no idea what's going on outside.
Maybe I should go work on my paper now? I'm still holding out for a Time-Turner.
