Annoyed.

Alright.

Whoever the smart*** is who signed me up for all the junk email, thank you.

I cannot tell you how much I appreciate getting the emails about Viagra, Russian Brides, "Add 2+ inches NOW", etc.

So, really, THANK you.

One day, I hope to realize who you are, you anonymous do gooder, and return the favor.

It's Official...

I. Am. In. Love.

With the Denver Library.

Did you know that this library is offering FREE e-book downloads? I'm talking about REAL e-books. The kind you would pay for on sites like mybookstoreandmore.com (great site!) and it completely saves a trip to the Library itself.

Amazing! With just a few mouse clicks, I can be browsing hundreds of books that with just another click will be downloaded onto my computer for my enjoyment.

Now, before you go about getting anything in a painful wad, the download is only temporary (21 days - just like if you'd done a traditional checkout), and you can't save the book (well, I am sure there's some way to do it :::as there is with everything:::) but I am just so in love with the features, I'm happy just as things are.

Ahhh, ain't love grand?

Houston, We're live!

So, what do you think? How do you like the new look?

I have to say, I love the colors.

In case you can't remember what the old one looked like, I thought I'd refresh your memory:


So, what do you think of the new look? Do you like the old one or the new?

Update.

Keep an eye out...

we'll be getting a new look here soon!

PS. I had a Spanish test last Wed. Just got the score back today: 98.5% - woot!
PPS. My first midterm is Wednesday. No prayer will be turned away (unless the gist of it says something like, "Dear God, please let Katrina fail...").

Scammers.


Sure. They may look all cute and sweet and innocent now...


But then you walk into the room and see this.


So far, Tobey is the one trying to get back on my good side.

Cheating.

Apparently I've been doing a lot of walking. I am aware of this because when I went to get up at the end of class today, my feet did not want to cooperate.

Just how much walking? About 12 miles this week. It's usually more around 16 but Monday was a holiday. But still, 12 miles? That's a lot of walking.

So I am treating myself to a Light Rail ride home. Because today is Thursday, it's not saving my feet really. I walk an extra mile - mile and a half every Tues and Thurs because the Mass Comm building is in No Man's Land.

So, in reality, I walk more than 16 mi a week but shhh, don't tell my feet. I'll let them go on thinking I'm cheating by taking the Light Rail home.

In fact, I think I'll make it a Tues/Thurs tradition.

Sounds good to me (and my feet).
