Friday!

Thank goodness it's Friday!

Today I have to give a tour, go to class, go to a meeting with someone from the Office of Study Abroad, and then get stuff ready for you guys to come!

Get ready to wave the wheat and sing the rock chalk chant!

A modest proposal

Here's my proposal:

Let's ban all political commentary from this blog and keep it fun between the family! I'm not discouraging political dialogue--but I think we could express ourselves better if we do it in person or on the phone, not in a semi-permanent text online format.

I've edited my comments from my most recent post to reflect this proposal. If anyone else would like to edit their posts, all you have to do is go to the "edit posts" link under the larger Posting tab (see above). Please keep edits to your own posts only.

Feelings about this? I know it would make me feel better.

cassie in 2008!

I thought I'd surprise you with some new colors on the blog!

In other news, my Hero explores language instinct. It's about damn time, newspaper people.

I'm about 2/3 done with my paper... it's 1:22 a.m., and I bet you're both glad that you're not in college and having to do crazy things like write papers in the middle of the night. I'm sure that this is one of those situations that seems like it would be so easy to avoid from the perspective of the real world (I mean, really, I'm in class for only 18 hours a week--that's not even a half time job! What ARE these college students doing with their time?). But alas, I just can't seem to get things done early anymore. Maybe I never could!

I think I'm just being goofy now. Back to writing about the emancipation of Brazilian slaves in a little girl's diary. No kidding.

go cassie!

well, the first half of my day was not as productive as i had planned. i got sucked into the CNN trap and stayed there all afternoon. then it got even worse because i started playing bejeweled and collapse on the internet while i watched/listened to the CNN and it was also hard to quit that. but, hey: at least i am informed.

then i went and paid for half of my dress for jessica's wedding (i chose the front half, as opposed to the top, bottom, back, right, or left half), saw mom play "emeril," and hung out at target. so, that was more productive.

mother - you did a great job! i was impressed and the food was good. my favorite was the taco one (minus the beans, of course). it was funny to listen to the old people, but they really liked you and kept telling me you did a good job. the cute grandpa by me said that even a guy like him could understand what you were talking about.

i think it is bed time for this bonzo. happy november 3rd to all and soon we will be waving the wheat together!

would you be mine?

hello girls and boys.

it's been a beautiful day in the neighborhood. i must admit, however, that i am not exactly looking forward to working tonight. oh well. i guess there's not much i can do about that.

i slept in and enjoyed that extra hour. i made tater-tot casserole. i downloaded my pictures from last night to my computer. i went and got my car washed - although it now looks like it may rain, so that maybe wasn't the smartest idea. but the dirt is gone and that was my main goal.

mom - we need to start making plans for next weekend. sister tells me that the football game starts at 12:30 and there is the thing before - so we gotta get our butts on the road EARLY.

pril - hope the trip to the airport was easy and hope you got all the quarters you needed.

talk to you later 'gators.
