References

I think that every book should have both the MLA-style and APA-style of referencing in the front of the book so that you know how to list it in a bibliography.

Don't you hate writing reports?

An Evening with Carol Burnett


I wish I lived in Texas..

I've been Gilmored


I just got Gilmore Girls Season 6 in the mail and was mildly disappointed to find that there is on bonus material. The other thing that I realized was that the rift between Lorelei and Rory lasted entirely too long, 7 episodes to be exact. That's not including the summer. In Stars Hollow time, it lasted about 6 months. Amazon.com asked the all important question, "Can it be the Gilmore Girls if the Gilmore girls aren't together?"

Their splint got on my nerves after a while and I wondered how long Amy and Dan Pallidino were going to drag this out. But amazingly, because I love the writing, I still watched the show. When they added the April character, Luke's long lost daughter, that just threw another monkey wrench in the situation.

Don't get me wrong. I love the show. It's one of the only shows I look forward to watching each week besides Lost, of course. Season 7 of the Gilmore Girls starts September 26 on the CW, minus the Pallidinos. It'll be interesting to see how the characters develop this season and if they'll talk as fast.

A change gon' come

Sometimes change comes
and it's a breath of fresh air.

Sometimes change comes
and it brings the foul stench of disappointment.

Sometimes changes comes
when you need it
and it saves you from yourself.

Sometimes change comes
at just the wrong time
and someone needs saving from you.

The one thing about change
is that we all have to learn
to adjust and to accept and to move on.

After all the only thing
that is constant in our lives
is change.

Wide awake

It's 2:16 am and I'm still up doing work. I was exhausted when I got home, but somehow I've managed to stay awake. Whenever I get started on a project like this, my energy level goes up. It's almost obsessive, I can't go to sleep until the project's done...Mostly because my mind will work on it all night if I don't finish it.

Tomorrow is my last official day of leave, although I've been working most days since my accident. I'm not sure what it'll be like when I go back because my arm is still going to be in the sling. So I'll still be typing with one arm. I'm getting better at it, but I have to use spell check a lot more than before.

I start physical therapy next week. I'll know what days and how often on Tuesday, so don't ask me until Tuesday afternoon. I also don't know how long I'll be in this sling, nor do I know how long my recovery time will be...*sigh* Can you tell that I've been asked these questions a lot already?

Ok, I'm tired now... I'm going to bed...Please don't me before 9 am.

Surgery today

I'm about to head to the hospital for my surgery. They're going to use screws and plates to put my elbow back together again. I wonder if there will be theme music when I run or throw something...like the bionic woman

Canadian pennies

Did you think that Canadians hate American pennies as much as we hate Canadian pennies?
