Ben Stiller and irritation

Ben Stiller was originally supposed to be our Class Day speaker. But he couldn't make the date and ended up offering to come a different day. So we ended up with him doing a question and answer session kind of thing this evening with just the senior class. He seems like a really cool guy. Pretty funny, as you'd expect. His wife was with him - she's six months pregnant. They were really cute together, actually. People made them explain how they met and how he proposed. He also seemed genuinely touched by being made an honorary member of the class and getting a blazer and everything. It was cool.

But that brings me to my incredible irritation at our class officers. Who, in their infinite wisdom, decided to make this the kickoff event of Senior Week. While a bunch of us aren't done our theses yet. Of course, they're all humanities majors, for the most part, and it's mostly science and engineering types whose theses are at the later due dates, and after all, who cares about the nerds? Yeah, so I can't go to any of the senior week events. 'Cause I'm writing. Grrrr. I shake my fist in helpless rage at the officers of our class.
