To: Old Man Winter
From: Twin Cities Residents
Re: The bloody cold weather
Excuse me, but could you take five? Really! below zero (F) temperatures to 6-8 inches of snow back to Below Zero Temps, do not make for a happy cycle. The residents in these fair cities would like some weather closer to freezing to enjoy the winter wonderland. Sledding, Skiing, Ice skating, we can't enjoy these sports without nice weather.
So how about laying off the sub-zero temps for a few days, and letting the sun shine through? It would be much nicer than the -20C to -30C temps (without windchill) you've planned for the next week!

Maybe I should find something else to do at work...
Like all the work I have. Still, one has to take breaks if one is going to stay sane...
Odd, this is one of the few quizes at quizilla where I pretty much stay one charecter. Maybe cause its all based on one answer?
Your Kagome! you like to hang out with your friends
and are always the first person to volunteer to
show a new student around, you are kind and
giving and enjoy having a occasional sleep-over
with the girls!

Wow, here we go again...
You know, it's only one week into the beginning of this semester of 'fun' classes, and I'm already at it again. That 'P' word...Procrastination! ARG! I'm really good at keeping up in my Rhet class, but it's really hard to bring myself to read my O-chem book...and do the problems. I've already planned an industrius afternoon of cleaning just to keep myself from having to actually having to LOOK at it. I mean--ich. I want to learn the stuff, and it IS interesting. It's just that...the book is so DRY ( of course, it would be hard to read a wet book) and boring (unlike my Rhet book, which is actually pretty interesting, even if she's playing the typical "rhet or english person"-repeat-myself-umpteenth-times-to-hammer-my-point-home games. The book is about how society, culture, and the "times we live in" influence the sciences, specifically the language of science.
Some might role their eyes at that, but the book does rasie some interesting points. It's called Nature's Body: Gender in the Making of Modern Science We get to watch films in this class too, and then discuss. Much more fun that being packed like sardines into a COMPLETELY full lecture hall with sometihing like 238 other O-chem students three days a week.
Well, I think I'm off to go get a bloody mary or two. Another good way to procrastinate.

School...again...
This weekend is kind of a paradox. I'm going home to see Katie, who has returned from London and all the other places she has been, and i'm going home to have a Graduation Party. yet...I'm still in school. This confuses me. I have finished my undergrad and am taking classes between that and my Grad degree. I don't feel like I really finished though, since my 'break' between them will be this summer, and that's normal for any school break. I still have to put in my application for my masters. One of my fellow undergrad-mates is also getting his Masters in the same program...but he's getting a masters of science and I'm getting a Masters of Public Health. I often wonder if I shouldn't get the masters of science instead...I still don't know. I'm sure I can start, and then switch. Bleah!
**side note** Dorene at work makes excellent caramel. I have had two, and I should stop now. Probably I will eat another**
The party this weekend, Saturday, will be great fun. It's mostly relatives, though Katie and Chris may stop in for a bit. I just feel weird being the centre of attention. I mean--I know I did well, I know I deserve it, but...I feel almost like I should wait til I accomplish the Masters first. Oh well, I'm gonna have fun.
**other side note** I have been smelling burned toast, and melted butter for a while. Maybe some one made popcorn or burned bread, but I don't think it's popcorn...the smell (for some reason) is making me hungry...**
Well, I am still considering changing my weblog about, getting rid of my other one, but I have to find the time first.
Update on New Year's Resolutions
1. Still flossing daily, or almost daily. Only miss one day a week-if that.
2. I'm still surviving til next year.

Go Home, Mikey!
Yay for the Packers! They did it again. Not only winning again, but also sending their old head coach, Mike Holmgren-now of the Seahawks- packing! The game managed to be typically hair raising and nerve-wracking, going into overtime, but it was worth it. Now, on to Philidelphia to take on the Eagles. I think we have a think for Birds this Playoffs. Hm, perhaps I should follow Jenny's example and kick one...
