2 Hour Delay
I have some time to post. Of course I could make time. I spend a lot of time in facebook keeping up with their silly time wasting games. Well, I think recreation isn't a terrible thing, given the work ethic I grew up with as measured by the guilt I feel when I'm "wasting time ( Read more... ) -
In Class
I'm in class at the end of the day. Yesterday they made me want to kill them and quit teaching. Today they are being very good. Go figure.

Love you all

Love you all

Days on end
Had a stress test on Monday and went to a funeral today. The stress test went fine. The funeral was actually ok. The man was the pappy of an old friend of mine. The friend didn't make it but his 3 sisters were there and since I grew up with them it was really a nice thing to meet and then go to lunch with them, even if under sad circumstances.
