Lord, have mercy on Adela's father!

I graduated high school. Time to get a job for the summer then do awesome in college.

Coke. I'm trying to stay sober. At least until the exams are over 

Coke for me is anything but sobering. The high dosage of caffeine puts me to sleep, the carbonation causes muscle cramps in my legs, and then gives me stomach cramps. Then I would be too miserable to study.

When I was a graduate student, I would drink green tea during my studies.

You're right about the muscle cramps. It's killing me.

Water, coca cola and lemonade.
Eucharist fast is soon up and it`s like +30 degrees celsius outside.

Hope to go through the divine liturgi without fainting.

India Pale Ale, I think.

Severian,

Regardless of cost calculations, don't forget that home office printers are not designed to print so many pages at a time, whether they are bubblejet (which I think yours is), or laser, or whatever.  You need a commericial printer designed to cope with such large volumes.

I disagree qawe. Severian is not going into the printing business. It is unlikely there is much of a market for a monochrome laser printer for purely personal use. An all in one printer like he already has is the more logical choice. There is no distinction between home office business and office business monochrome laser printers. They get a lot of use and go through 100 pages a day, usually much more. I have used laser printers that only hold 100 pages of paper and it is in constant use by a workgroup that readily goes through a ream of paper a day. We would be more helpful picking the best of the monochrome laser printers rather than casting doubt.

It's not that the English lessons really influenced me. Usually I just played chess in class with a friend.

Water and some IPA. They called it Belgian but since Velguands didn't have a colonial empir in Indua I'm afraid it make no sense. Should be Congolese Pale Ale perhaps.

What is IPA? 

I would find it hard to drink as I studied and used the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) when I was studying for my degrees in Linguistics.

In English lessons I was always taught to use British English. American English was reviled by the teachers as a barbaric variant of proper, British English. We would get no points if we would use American words/spelling/etc.

And rightfully so. I hate how we Americans have so completely destroyed the language.

What are you talking about? American English is closer to the original anyways according to language scholars, and even if it wasn't what is destructive about not having a u in color?
