School starts tomorrow morning at 0830. I asked J about a month ago what he would think if I went 2 mornings per week. He said it would be tough, but OK. I told him 3 days ago that school was starting on Monday. Alright.

So the month of October was a successful "No Caffeine Month". Which was amazing considering my reliance on the stuff before. However, November bought with it the H1N1 virus, and the dry cough that characterizes it. So I started on the cough syrup. Which has sudafed. Which is addictive, and a bad thing to get addicted to.
