It's just over 5 pages. I think I cover all what's asked about for the paper to have. I spent most of my day today working on it. I got a small start on it last night.

Last night, I didn't get to sleep until after 3:30 AM! I think I was wired. I should sleep better tonight having this paper finished.

If my site goes crazy this next few weeks, I apologize in advance. I'm working hard on the revamping. I'm just about finish converting the style sheets of my current style sheets to work with the new template. I hope those changes won't be so visible. After that, I have to revamp of my static pages. I think this work should help me in my CSS and web design skills. I admit I'm not the best, even those I know love my work. Personally, I think my best works are my "Just Peachy" and "The Water" skins. I need to get out to the garage and play with my old computer. I need to see about import a few files from that computer onto disc and get them on this computer.

Thursday Threesome:

Onesome: Entertainment- What's your chosen form of entertainment in your time off? Do you go to the movies, a concert or just sit and read or indulge in your hobbies? I love reading stuff on the Internet. I'm not a big movie theater fan. And concerts! If I can afford to go, I go!

Twosome: Music- What's your choice for musical entertainment? Classical, rock, pop, hip hop, a little bit of everything or something completely different? Do you have a favorite band/singer? If you could see anyone, alive or dead, perform live, who would it be? I'd love to see Amy Grant live! She's got a live CD and DVD coming out later this year. My favorite singer is Richard Marx. I've seen him live 6 times. I'd like to meet him one more time to get a decent picture of myself. All my pictures with him are not flattering. I have glasses in them or I can't see in them, so I look like an idiot. Now, I have contacts. The only other thing is I'd like it if I could get a picture with Richard with a decent smile. Most of his fan pictures, his smile looks funny to me.

Threesome: and Movies- What's on your "must see" list right now? Do you actually go out to the movies or prefer to wait for the DVD? I just watched Steel Magnolias for my Ethics class. Now, to pound out a 5 page paper about it! Did I tell you it's due Monday? I'll start it later tonight. I got a page of material for it to write tonight. I forgot that with resources, you know have to quote the source. You just have to mark it on the paper. Should make things easier for me!

Okay, I need to get ready for my history test tonight.

It will be quick. I'm still swamped with school. I have to watch and write a five page paper on Steel Magnolia that's due Monday. I'm watching the movie tonight. I must.

I'm learning all about XML & XHTML for ACM and work. I've decided to redo the back end of my site. Didn't go to bed until 3 last night because I was really into getting a cool template to work for my site. It didn't make the layout, but I'm trying to get the HTML set up such that I can get this template working with my other skins. I think that would be cool.

Oh, I have a history test tomorrow and need to get working on reading a 294-page book on the War of 1812. I have a three page paper on that due the 28^th.

Oh, I have a group presentation in Ethics on the 24^th. I need to get cracking on that, too. And now you know why I'll be scarce the next two weeks. I got together with my group mates yesterday. We have the topic, we have it planned out. Now, just for me to sit down, go through the research, and type up a PowerPoint presentation.

I have been taking breathers here and there. I'm just so wound, yet tired. I know that it will pay off in the end.

Back to work. I need money. Speaking of work, my boss got back from China. He brought all of us some beautiful folding fans as a gift. I got the purple one.

I'm going to be quiet this week. I've got work to do for my Ethics class. This, on top of working, History class, and ACM meetings. I'm busy.

My dreams of late have all had the recurring theme. The theme is skipping classes. Since I've returned to school in 2002, I've only skipped a class here or there for various reasons. These reasons have included being sick, family business calls (like Lucky dying), being mentally drained, and skipping only because it's the end of course and I have nothing to lose. Other than that, I've had perfect attendance. However, these dreams have me not skip the occasional class. They have been skipping for days. I just don't want to go to these classes. In my dreams, they are usually English and Calculus courses. I haven't been enjoying them.
