Man, I've been sooooo busy. Trying to deal with work, school, and a sick dog is kicking my ass. I've got two different classes going on right now: one is logo design and the other is goal attainment. I figured that meant that there wouldn't be as much to do in the design class. Ha! Same amount of work, just less class time to do it. I got a sum total of four hours of sleep Wednesday and Thursday nights. I didn't even go to work Friday morning. I did one store after school, but I told the manager at the other store that I was way too tired and had to go home. I think I dozed off more than a couple of times on the way home and found myself crossing lanes. I didn't even realize I was driving home on fumes. I realized I had no gas when I pulled into my driveway. STUPID! I'm lucky I didn't kill myself or someone else. So I ended up sleeping from 3 p.m. until 5:30 the next morning (when Skippy wanted to go out). I was still totally wiped out. After I got through with work, I came home and slept again. Marcus woke me up to go give Dave his birthday present, we had dinner, and I came home and slept some more.

I felt more awake today, but when I got home from work, I napped even more. Craziness. Marcus and I had a lunch today of Chipotle burritos and Starbucks Mocha Frappacinos. Yummy!!!! They were passing out free samples of a raspberry mocha frappacino. It was quite tasty.

Anyway, got to get to bed and start all over again. I have more to say, but no time. Hopefully, I'll have a few moments tomorrow.

1. What's your personal clothing style...trendy or classic?
Um, neither.

2. Do you shop for designer names or stick with the more generic brands?
Whatever's cheaper and fits.

3. Work clothes: dressy or casual?
Casual.

4. Days off style: dressy or casual?
Casual.

5. Women: high heels or flats? Men: Wing-tips or work boots?
Flats - there's a reason your feet hurt in heels.

6. Do you have a large wardrobe, or just a few carefully selected pieces?
Just a few pieces that I wear until they wear out.

7. Do you shop for clothing at stores or from catalogs/internet?
Since I want to try it on first, stores.

8. Are most of your clothes dry-clean only or machine-washable?
Machine-washable. I refuse to buy anything that has to be dry-cleaned.

9. You buy an article of clothing and realize it is all wrong for you when you get home. Return or keep it?
Return it.

10. Hats: yes or no?
No.

1. What is your lineage? Where are your ancestors from?
I know I've got German roots. I know I've got some kind of American Indian blood in me, but I'm not sure of the tribe. Other than that, I have no clue. Someday when I'm rich and have some free time (LOL), I want to trace my roots.

2. Of those countries, which would you most like to visit?
I really would like to visit Germany someday. Especially since Marucs was a German citizen when I met him (he's now a naturalized U.S. citizen). I know he wants to return to the homeland to visit.

3. Which would you least like to visit? Why?
N/A

4. Do you do anything during the year to celebrate or recognize your heritage?
Can't say that I do. I don't really identify with them. I'm an American, plain and simple, therefore I celebrate that.

5. Who were the first ancestors to move to your present country (parents, grandparents, etc)?
I have absolutely no idea. Like I said, someday I'll check it out.

IF DR SEUSS WAS A WOMAN

I'm glad I'm a woman -Yes I am, yes I am.
I don't live on Budweiser, Beer nuts and Spam.
I don't brag to my buddies about my erections;
I won't drive to Hell before asking directions.

I act nice at parties; don't act like a clown;
And I know how to put the damn toilet seat down.
I won't grab your boobies; I won't pinch your butt.
My belt is not hidden beneath my beer gut.

I don't go around re-adjusting my crotch;
or make sure my headboard bears each hard-earned notch.
I don't belch in public; don't scratch my behind.
I'm a woman, you see- I'm just not that kind!

I'm glad I'm a woman; So glad I could sing--
and thrilled I'm not covered in shag carpeting.
Hair won't grow from my ears, Or cover my back.
And when I bend over You can't see my crack.

I'm a woman, alas-- and I'm proud, don't you see?
I'm blessed to have two boobs and squat when I pee.
I don't live for golf, or shoot basketball.
I don't swagger and spit like a Neanderthal.

I don't need male bonding; I don't cruise for chicks--
I'll never join the "Hair Club", or think with my dick.
I'm a woman, by chance And thankful I am!
I'm so glad I'm a woman, Not a man, yes I am!
