Patrick, if I could afford it I would be taking a trip to OZ instead of just the East Coast. I have the time I just don't have the money.
Bek, unfortunetly it isn't the time thing. Had a major ear ache and sore throught last Sunday and it's taking me a little time to get over it all. I think today is going to be better though, I don't feel as tired as I did yesterday.

It one of those things. It's a little slow here at work so I decided to get on a little early. I'm normally not around until my lunch break.
Are you one of those ... morning people? Growing old is mandatory; growing up is NOT.

No...I just have to get up early to get the little girl off to school...and considering the time difference, if I don't get up early, I don't get to talk to my hippie, either...so...I get up early...and I talk in circles...

*giggle* Ela, a morning person is someone who wakes up chearful and bubbly and ready to take on the world with a smiling face. Please tell me if you are not one of ... those. If you are I'm getting my own tent.
Bek, I can understand the getting up early part, we do some crazy things for the people that we love.. My body is up and going by 6am, during the week, but the brain doesn't actually kick in until somewhere around 9am.

My brain doesn't kick in till at least the third cup of coffee...and I used to be quite the night owl...but seems that my body just won't let me do it anymore...I start yawning and getting all heavy eyed and stuff if I'm up much past midnight!!!

I start getting tired around midnight but if I can keep going until 1 or 1:30 I get my second wind and I can go until 6 or 7am.

Oh well, I guess that's life. I can still do something that most kids can't though. Sleep through a part, I've been able to do that since I was 12!

I've been wearing glasses since I was 13...and got my contacts not long after...because I HATE glasses!!!

Well...they do come in kind of handy when my eyes get tired and start to burn...or first thing in the morn before I put my contacts in...cuz otherwise, I would have to have my face about 6 inches away from the computer screen and it's really hard to type that way!!!
*giggle*...yep...and especially my boy!!!
