I am running on 3 hours of sleep from last night, because I was up doing math homework. I still have to study for bio and wake up at 6 AM to get there on time. Why does anyone care? I don't know. I just don't get how I am not half dead right now. The weekend couldn't come soon enough.

Keep plugging away, kiddo! You can sleep on the weekend! We're pulling for you, you know that!

My dead old grandpappy said, " You can do whatever you want, grow a pair ", he was quite right.

Karen, your post made me really happy

It's nice to know that. Sometimes, I just sit here wondering if all the stress is worth it, but this helped - thanks. I got a 90% on one quiz I had today, don't know about the 2nd on yet!

Very good! We knew you could do it!

Today's random observation - stale mini Triscuits are REALLY popular with the squirrels and chipmunks - I have a box I had forgotten I had opened earlier this summer, so they are quite stale, but worth running off with to stash for winter, apparently!

The younger you are, the less traffic signals mean to you.

Why are the commercials you really detest are the ones that you always see?

How do they fit the talking woman into the dashboard?

I have all the lids that belong to your plastic storage-ware.

Why is when I look for tape (or anything else) I can't find it, I go buy another and the first roll appears later?

Why are egg rolls stuffed with meat/veggies?

They are called "egg" rolls because the wrappers are traditionally an egg-based pastry. But they are also called "spring rolls" depending on where in the world you are from, and are found in many, many cultures worldwide now!
