Early. Maybe not so much. 9 am. I want to go back to bed. I'm being my grumpy morning self. Hate waking up. Its only 25 degrees. Should be illegal. Spring. Now.

Exam. Soon. Geology. Volcanoes. Earthquakes. Rocks. Yuck. Tummy hurts. Drank my slimfast. If you only use half a scoop instead of a full one, it dissolves. Gross. I could never go on that diet.

2 am. Phone. Nbraas. 4 times. Not good. Didn't get out of bed. Would have gotten pissed. He was drunk. No excuse. Alcohol is never an excuse. I want to be unlisted.

Regis and Kelly are on, so is Billy Joel. They're clashing. Must choose. Can't. Want to go back to bed.

Abstinence...choice of champions.

Yeah...as long as the choir keeps singing...i'll keep preaching...abstinance is the choice of champions..

Ok, so I must be honest and say that I really like paper cups. I hate doing dishes, so paper is perfect for me, problem is, I had to learn the hard way that if you leave a paper cup on your desk for an extended period time, it leaks out all over.

I'm enjoying this Wednesday. It's rest day. That means I don't have to work out. I need a day of rest, God had one, so it can't be all bad, and Wednesday is the day. Its right smack dab in the middle of the week and I have a really long day so I eally don't have time to work out. I have a new policy against working out past 8pm because last night I worked out at 9 and couldn't fall asleep to save my life, wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't have to be at work at 7 am. But it worked out. Oh and today was my day of luck. The Airborne Express guy did not come. Now that I think of it, neither did UPS or FedEx. Wonder if there's a delivery strike or something. That's strange. I had so much to say, but now that I'm sitting here staring at this blankess I've drawn a blank. Dang. Oh well...I'll leave you with some quotes.

"You should be able to get throught this without a drink" (my COM TA) Yay for MSU!!!

And remember...abstinence is the choice of champions...which scott dot dot dot A usually replies "then call me a loser baby" We all know being a loser isn't cool....c'mon scott...

Sometimes things happen that you thought you'd never look back on and smile. I'm like that, I'm dramatic...I know a few people who can attest to that...ok...maybe a lot. Well today I went and paid a visit to the green streak (my car, my baby). Now yes, she is wounded. But as I drove back into the back lot where are the other wounded cars were, I was noticing how compared to these other cars, she barely even looked like she needed to be fixed. Makes me thankful. Really it does. I mean I was almost overwhelmed because I was feeling so lucky and thankful. I'd say I damaged...ehh...13% of my car. There was a car whose whole side fell off (I didn't even know that was possible), cars that couldn't shut the hoods, windows broken and even a car that was opened up with the jaws of life. Now don't think I'm getting material here because I'm not. I wasn't thinking about how my car was damaged less (did I mention there is a chunk of the telephone pole wedged into the car...yea...) because I have the same $250 deductable regarless, but I was thinking about the people inside the car. If the car looks that bad, it is quite possible and almost probably that not everyone walked away, or rode in a police car, away from the scene with nothing to worry about but how to get to their meeting that night. I am so thankful that I hit a pole and not a person. I'm so thankful that I was coming from a stop and not 50 mph, I'm so thankful that people stopped to help me. I just thank God. This could have been worse, much worse and it wasn't....It's a great day to be alive...Yeah baby....

Oh, one more thing. Today I ran into this girl who I trained with at the Listening Ear...oh my gosh..it was so amazing to see her...I miss those guys....I wish I could have sat her down and spilled my guts, but alas...I was glad to see her anyway....IT WAS GREAT!!!

So I thought I'd include a quote from my friend Molly's Diary...why I'm not sure because really I'm the only one amused my this...(well and her too) but still...Read it..

"So I feel the need to share some quotes from Sarah because they make me smile and laugh. They may not make a whole lot of sense to anyone, well really they don't make much sense at all to anyone but Sarah, but they make me smile and laugh. "Not in Sarah's Car-O-Peace!" (this is just a side note, but sarah's car-o-peace currently has a big piece of telephone pole in it. This is why everyone should scrape off the whole windshield when it is frost and snow covered and they are going to drive somewhere.) "I can feel the hotness in my pants" said while driving in my car... kind of scary. "I don't like drving you car. You push the gas pedal and it zooms" "Is that the girl thats the girl?" "Abstinence is the choice of champions" see... i could go into details with this one, but sarah really might kill me "the airborne express guy hit on me(ed. note, by Sarah, AGAIN...and he touched my arm and told me I was going to get it...!" "

In contrast to my mindless pleasantries comment, this morning and every morning that I work, I am greeted by Ivan. Ivan is a developmentally disbabled guy who works maintenence at Holden. He is the sweetest guy and every morning greets me with a smile. He makes me think of all the fun I had this summer with my campers...ahh Pearl, Christine, Odelia, Jill (baaaaabby) and all of the others. Man...oh to be at Camp Pioneer right now...

Funny story, I'm experiencing a deja vu on this one so if I've told this story before, excuse the moment. Last week this guy Pat overheard my ex-roommate telling her roommate that she thinks that I steal her mail. Of course I'm not doing it alone, AnnMarie and Molly and I are all in "cahoots" in stealing her mail. I do have better things to do with my time than steal your mail ____ (insert mean name that I've refrained from saying here). Just thought that was humorous...you'd have to know her or our situation to share in the joy of the comment.

I feel like a major success today. I think that if I didn't have to work AGAIN today, then today would be the most productive day of my life. I was up, worked out, showered, read and studied all before noon today. For those of you who know how I am in the AM would have thought I was a different person completely. To all of you nonbelivers...HA!!!

I'll leave you with a quote from my COM professor from today's lecture:

"$75 for a set of nails?? You should get sex with that". So true, so true...of course I'd have to turn it down though because as always...ABSTINENCE IS THE CHOICE OF CHAMPIONS.

So today my parents got a puppy.....its the cutest thing ever. She is a rotweiler and she's so tiny and sooo cute. I wanted to kidnap her, but I thought my parents would notice. I tried to put a picture of the puppy and me on this page but I can't seem to figure things out. Me and HTML are strangers...I need to get aquainted.

I am now the proud driver of a Taurus. Let me just tell you that I have the best parents EVER, my parents are driving around a rental car for the next few weeks until my car is fixed, though I am a little bit frightened to drive.
