    Actually, we have an engineer at work who cause me a few problems, however I soon learnt the game she was playing and changed the rules, its now a favourate sport of mine to make her cry. During meetings is the funniest...

    *sigh* But, I think, it is time for me to depart.

    Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged novel isnt going to read itself, and the subsequent essay isnt going to write itself. Fine novel (very interesting and not particularly a difficult read in terms of plot or vocabulary, as I'd originally anticipated) and fine essay topic, but it's just so... very... long...!

    Now that school is out until July (summer school) and standardized tests vanquished, Mom has said that my full-time job this summer is winning scholarships, 'cause I need the moniez.

    So, I must bid you adieu.

    So long! Farewell! Auf wiedersehen, goodbye!

    Hello everyone!

    Dan and myself are trying to come up with middle names for our baby. We have first names, just not middles names and I want to have middles names. 2 at the most. It's so hard though.. :(

    Joel loves biscuits and gravy. I, on the other hand, can't eat it. It makes me throw up.

    Biscuits and gravy do nothing for me. I prefer biscuits with butter, or with honey, or both.

    I just had French toast for lunch.

    <-- Southern Boi

    Biscuits & Gravy, slab bacon, chipped 'tatters and onions, egg scrambola.

    One of the great things about the south is little greasy spoon, hole-in-the-wall diners like Harold's Diner in Melbourne, FL. The place ain't nothin' to look at, inside or out, but the eats are mmmm-mmmmm, stick to your ribs, raise your LDL about 30 points good!

    Join the club of hating working up early. I have my first early start in a fortnight tomorrow, and I am not looking forward to it.

    Just watched Serenity - thoroughly enjoyed it.

    I learned today just how messed up the management is at my current job. Thank God it's only until the end of August. Certain rules don't apply to everyone. Supervisors treat you as if you can't recover from one mistake, and don't provide the opporunty to prove your ability to learn, or listen to you. They constantly remind you to ask questions and repeatedly explain everything. One supervisor was very pushy about convincing me to work on the day before my classes start, even though they are in a city that's four hours away.

    They also hired someone who is not legally able to work in Canada, and apparently they "have done worse."

    Huh. I just tried to take a bath and fell asleep. Got out, wrapped myself in a towel, laid down on the floor and went back to sleep.

    That was weird.
