Just imagining a roller skating goose.
S-Girl- I believe it comes from the lack of school for the moment. All of my mind is being used for everything I do, instead of constantly thinking about the essay I have to write.

I wish I didn't have to think about the essays I have to write, or the 20 page take home exam due at 8 am on Tues or the textiles final I'm taking on Monday.
I also wish I didn't have to go in 15 minutes to help my sister move her stuff to uhaul. I just want to be selfish and say "find someone else to help you move. Isn't that what home teachers are for?"

My mother isn't very good at mailing things on time (or hand delivering, but she's too far away for that) and my Easter package came today. I go there on Tuesday, so she could have saved the shipping $ and given it to me three days later.
The best example: I forgot to bring my flannel sheets with me after christmas so I asked her to ship them. I got them mid March, when it was already warm.
Posted by: Sarah J | April 21, 2007 at 09:30 PM
heh. Why do things on time when you can do them later?
Just saw a movie called, "Idiocracy" it was a lot more intelligent then I thought. Then I found out it was not promoted much, even though it had an all star cast, and the director that made King of the Hill.
Laughed pretty hard at some scenes.
Then later, more scenes began to hit me at there funniness. It is one of those movies.
Well going to bed.

Some baad righting for sharon:
Shakespeare got his name b/c he shook spears alot. The e was just too make it look fancie. He rote lots of poems called bonnets. He also rote plays like Much Ado about Something, The Temps, Hamhock, The Taming of the Screw and Romeo and Julia. He stared in Shakespeare in Love, as well as righting the screenplay.

Beats me, I didn't learn how to kill one by reading this book. And to be honest, we have quite a few in my farm. It would be nice to get rid of them. Instead its some court trial. Ugh. Barely read the book.

My first internet Video. Starring El Padre Mio.
I will probably take this down soon. So check it out when you can. I wanted to see how easily I can transfer video from my new camera to the nets. I see that I can do that very easily now. So I am quite satisfied.

I worked without a 'net the entire weekend and came down with a severe case of Kilt withdrawal.
But reading Alfred (he's a Mormon, you know) write "run for your wives" was yet another gem that reminded me of exactly why I love this place.

Thanks for the Snork.
I myself took up cross country because I was trying to catch a wife. Then I realized the apple of my eye was not that fast. I lost interest in her soon after.

So, didja ever have one of those weekends where you find out that someone whom you hardly knew but who considered you his best friend has been dead since Wednesday and the funeral is in the morning and you have two baseball games to go to and then have to work from 8 pm to 4:30 am at two separate shows and then get up for church the next day because they expect you to lead the music and then have to build a scale model of a komodo dragon?

KDF - have you tried WordPress? Much gentler and more friendly, I find. You can import all your bl0gspot posts, and then leave a redirecting post at the original site which sends all your friends to the WP bl0g. Painfree, really.
Posted by: Kaffy In Disguise (With Glasses) | April 23, 2007 at 03:18 PM
Ooo, I hadn't looked into that, Kaf, mainly because I didn't know I could import existing posts. That is good to know.
Ever since Bl0gger made me switch to the *new* Bl0gger, it has hiccuped a bit too often. Thanks, Kaf. I'll check it out.

Sarah, is that your Final Answer? (Please provide your answer in the form of a syllogism).
Bumble, while you appear to be keenly focused on keeping your halo from tarnishing on the outside, an even more insidious hazard is degeneration from within. I'd say that's your tougher battle.

A good pizza can stand on its own. I can even see throwing a favorite item on it as an enhancement, but having to add a bunch of extra ingredients is a sign of an inferior, unauthentic pizza.

ARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!
I was hoping that would make me feel better. No such luck. I've got a group project due tomorrow: a presentation and a 15 page paper. My job was to edit the paper together since the two guys I'm working with aren't great writers. They were supposed to send me their stuff by Sunday at the latest so I could get cracking. One of the boys (who is doing the lion's share of the research) still hasn't sent his section. He's planning on having it to me by 2 or 3 in the morning. I had to get someone to cover my shift for tomorrow morning so I could stay home and try to get this wrapped up before I have to leave for my first class. And I know he's working hard and is stressed out b/c he's got other projects/papers/exams going on, but guess what? SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE! Do the work ahead of time and show others a little consideration so they don't have to rearrange their schedules for your crap.
In his defense, he's not a slacker. He does his share of the work, unlike the people involved in most group projects I've done. He just doesn't do it punctually. I am not a last minute/all nighter kind of person. I can't function that way. This kind of stuff drives me crazy!
Oh well. There's nothing I can do about it right now. Time for a shower and some dinner and my bed.
Posted by: Bumble | April 24, 2007 at 09:50 PM
