BACK TO SCHOOL... BACK TO SCHOOL...

(Read that as if Billy Madison were saying it.) Well, it's that time again... the time of year I've always dreaded as long as I can remember. It starts when they take down all the summer gear (swimsuits, goggles, waterwings, lawn chairs, charcoal - anything that reminds you of summer), and in its place are pencils, notebooks, crayons... Every commercial and ad are devoted to this time of year... BACK TO SCHOOL!!! (When I was in college, I actually looked forward to going back to school, but now I've reverted back to how I felt when I was growing up.) Back to school means different things for me now; waking up at 5 in the morning, communting for an hour, feeling completely exhausted ALL DAY LONG for NINE MONTHS straight. I can honestly say that I'm not ready to give up sleeping in and lazing around the house most of the day just yet. But my bad attitude needs to change by next week, when the kiddies start school. I'll continue this rant later. It's nine o'clock, and time to go to bed. (My bedtime is back to when I was a school-age kid, too.)

Blogging Virgins

I am brand-new to this craze that is sweeping the nation, but I thought I'd join because I didn't want to be left out of all the fun, and I also thought it was a great way to stay connected with friends and family. So be patient as I get my blog up and running.
