What has happened so far today:

I was awakened by drunken people outside my window at about 9 in the morning. Too early for this!

I was awakened again by the house fire alarm at 11:30. Byron burnt something in the toaster. Damnit, this is happening too often.

Now the loudspeaker from Libe Slope is blaring in my window all the way in Collegetown. Grrr. And drunken people are still wandering around.

The drunken people are drunk because today is the last day of classes. Otherwise known as Slope Day. Where thousands of people gather on Libe Slope between the Arts Quad and West Campus, to drink themselves silly and listen to random second-rate music groups.

Except so far they aren't playing music, just talking.

Really, really loudly.

And then all the drunken people cheer.

Also really, really loudly.

I am SO glad I'm leaving now for the Commons, where it will be blessedly QUIET.

Libe Slope sounds like a cousin of Bascom Hill (http://www.ies.wisc.edu/cert/exchange/jpegs/hill.jpg), except Bascom doesn't have any dorms facing it.

And now I know where you have been attending college :D
