Hey! Another meme! Put your music player on shuffle, and write down the first line of the first twenty songs. Post the poem that results. The first line of the twenty-first song is the title. Boat’s Up The River And It Won’t Come Down There is trouble in the world today On rides the captain and three hundred soldier lads I hear what you’re telling me but that don’t make it so. Well first you gotta want to get off At first I didnt understand when she walked through the door You’re like a cool breeze to a hot spell…

It’s the last day of November! So, naturally, I think I should wrap it up with a meme. ;) This photo meme is kinda cool – I swiped it from awdrey_gore. 01. Answer each of the questions below the cut using the [Flickr] search engine. 02. Choose a photo from the first three pages. 03. Copy the URL of your favorite photos [here]. 04. Then share with the world.

You know, I don’t think I’ll try to force myself to post every day again. Maybe it’s that I feel obligated to post, which makes me rebel. Or maybe I just don’t have a life. :D I’m ok with that, really. I happen to like my well upholstered rut. Anyway. One more duty post after this one, and then it’s back to random sporadic posting. Maybe I’ll manage to post once a week! Almost into the homestretch for this semester at school. One more test in Government, and I’ve got a paper in American Lit due, and that’s it. Next…

The bad: We had to go out on Black Friday after all – vet appointment for Pandora. She’s eating, but not well, and her hair is seriously thinning – we found a bald patch. Worse, it looks like her diabetes is back as well as a UTI. The meds that have been helping prevent recurring pancreatitis exacerbate diabetes, and are probably responsible for her hair loss. On the other hand, they help her want to eat. Usually. The UTI is just a fabulous bonus. Also, one of the nose pad things on my glasses broke off. I’ll go to the…

Between Macy’s rickrolling of America and the “Turkeys Away” episode of WKRP in Cincinnati, I don’t think today can get much better! Confession: We’re having french dip sammiches tonight because the turkey isn’t completely thawed and we can’t be bothered to force it. :D I love a no-pressure holiday! I’m thankful for: My husband. My non-annoying in-laws. Being able to go to college at this late date. Many other things I’m unable to articulate. Also, my husband.

I woke up (to pee, natch) before the alarm went off, and now I’m actually awake! What’s up with that? So that American Lit test I thought I blew? Got a 98. Seriously, what is wrong with me?? I still feel like my answers weren’t worth full points – I’m under the theory that the prof was scoring my test late, he wanted to get to bed, and was all “screw it, good enough.” Or something. Wow. Mornings. The sky just a few minutes ago was this gorgeous light purple. Normally, I’m against sunrises – the only way they should…

Things that might be on a TurkeyDay table that I’d rather not see: Cranberry sauce1 – what can I say, I’ve never liked the stuff. In my family it was always the canned gel kind, with the can indents still on the… congealed red… stuff. Honestly, I don’t know if I’ve ever tried the “real” kind – and I don’t feel like I’m missing anything. :D Peas – I. Hate. Peas. I’ve tried them a number of occasions, and I just Do Not Like them. Bleh. Yams w/ marshmallows – ugh. Just, ugh. Now. I don’t care what anybody says,…

Fun quiz! American Civil Literacy – take the quiz – No cheating, now! You answered 31 out of 33 correctly — 93.94 % Average score for this quiz during November: 78.0% Average score: 78.0% I missed two on economics, which doesn’t surprise me. Hm. Maybe I should make an economics class my “unrestricted elective”. I love history. Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there.

Today, in short bullet points: Tasha has taken off her collar, again. This time, I think she’s hidden it. The cable bill gave me a massive paper cut. Though mortally wounded (see above point) I got the junk paid and the bills shredded. Wait. Reverse that. I still need to pick classes for Spring term. Eeep. I’m dreading getting our writing assignment for Am Lit. That is all. [EDIT: 9:49pm Found it! Tasha’s collar, that is. It was on the bottom shelf of a bookcase in the library. Silly cat. Now I’m going to have some ice cream and watch…
