rip off

They're charging me a $100 freaking dollars for my stupid yearbook. One Hundred Dollars!

I just spent over $100 dollars today on getting announcements!!! $65 dollars for my oh-so-beautiful gown and cap. And now this.

From an email, back in December "Finally, in order to decrease the final cost of the yearbook, we are selling ad space." Um, folks, THIS AIN"T A DECREASED PRICE!!! I've done yearbooks before, the entire gamut. I've sat in darkened little rooms and mixed chemicals. I've sat underneath basketball rims to get the perfect shot. I've cropped and chopped and played with layouts until I was seeing square shapes in my dream. And I've gone out and begged for money to put in ads. All I know, is that it didn't cost us this much for my entire high school, which was approximately the same size as my med school class.

ARGH!

On a side note. I did start watching the Gilmore Girls finale, but left for dinner with some friends. Anybody want to tell me what happens in the last 10-15 minutes? I think the last I saw was when Rory surprised Logan with the London party. I'm not sure that I really care, more for just idle curiousity.

Instead of working on my paper today (yes, I'm very very bad), I went through and updated/completed all of my tagging on my past entries. There's still some cleanup that I need to do, entries that are still missing labels and I need to figure out someway to override the "tag" page (http://jcd1013.livejournal.com/tag) to make it more readable, but I haven't figured out to do that. Hmm. I do feel somewhat accomplished though. Sorting through emails, now arranging LJ entries--go me!

I have therapy and a doctor's appointment check tomorrow. I have to get them to sign a clean bill of health for residency. I should have done this a month ago, but oh well.

Julia out.
