. . . and I just wanted to say goodbye.

I love posting on the SDMB, and I’m proud to be a Doper. Unfortunately, I’m right in the middle of a semester, with a research paper, a presentation, and two projects looming on the horizon. I love posting here, but I need this “A,” so I’ve asked a moderator to suspend my account for two months until May 10, 'cause I just don’t have the willpower to leave this shit alone.

While I’m gone, I will use the Internet for more pressing, noble causes, such as online research, helping my classmates with _their_ projects, and surfing hot monkey porn behind my wife’s back.

I’ll miss you, but I’ll be back in two months. So have a great time, all, and please don’t tell my wife about the monkeys.

How often do you find a pusher who will give you a time-out? 😃

Study hard, pass with an “A,” and when come back…

. . . bring Π !

OK, I don’t know whether or not I got an “A” for the class, but I’m feeling pretty confident. The professor asked for one volunteer to do his presentation a week early, and I jumped at the chance because I’m not that bright. That’s OK, though. It went swimmingly, and now I am done for the semester.

Gotta get back to work now, but I just wanted to say hi! I missed ya!
