Three Things...
Major achievements from the Thanksgiving Break:
"Thursday, new shoes"
Variation on a theme
1) Carpal tunnel syndrome from playing Guitar Hero for too many consecutive hours. It really hurts. I played through the pain until my pinkie just wouldn't grasp the frets any longer. I still have three songs to go before I beat the game.
2) Cooked my first bacon-wrapped sausage. The trick is you've got to cook the sausage to medium-well first, then wrap it, then let it fry until the bacon is how you like it. Sounds like gooooood eatin'.
3) Lost my voice cheering. I consider this a major honor. Seriously, I couldn't be more pleased. Despite losing, my team gave me something to cheer about, and I felt I did my part.
"what's a homework?"

I Am Thankful For You All
Even you, little Badger. You'd follow me to the ends of the earth, grumbling all the way.
Let us remember the forefathers who, for all their faults and smells, set a good example for us that fateful Novemberish day.
God bless us, everyone.

Tender mercies
So I was thinking all day that I was going to have to stay up late tonight writing a book review. I wasn't dreading it TOO much since I'd actually finished the book (I know, journal moment), but just the same. Researching the author and finding some review of the book to comment on, then typing into the wee hours of the morning, then going to the class at 7:30 . . . not exactly the greatest combination, if you get what I mean.
I'm sure you can share in my delight when I realized that the due date had been moved back and the date I had been looking at was the previous one.
Maybe I'll actually stay awake tomorrow morning.

Why do I always cry like I'm at a testimony meeting when I watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition?

Outer space and deep space has always absolutely fascinated me.
Jupiter has been my favorite planet since I was in 4th grade. Everyone would give me a hard time saying things like, "You would die if you lived on Jupiter" or "Earth is the only planet that I love." Oh yeah, where else can you see a huge red dot on the planet's surface? Scientists can study everything about Earth because we live here. They can't study everything about other planets because it is too dangerous to go out there and find what really makes those planets do what they do.
First manned mission to Mars anyone?
This latest development on the surface of Saturn is remarkable. Be sure to click on the Reuters link on the side of the article. They always deliver the news well.
If I were a rocket scientist I would love to work at NASA. Alas, I'm not not very science minded...drat.
