It was sheer optimism that led me to solicit donations this year, and you guys didn’t let me down. My original goal of $150 was shattered by your generosity, and I am truly grateful. I will sweat on your behalf.

I’ve recently been pointed to a very funny web comic called Penny Arcade.

I got some good advice from my mom about storing my basil. She suggested that I put the stems in some water to keep them fresh longer. Excellent idea!

Things were going so well. I was feeling tired, but resolved. I had a plan to keep myself awake. I was enjoying having the extra time.

Was able to get to sleep smoothly yet again, and had a quick dream that I can’t remember. I did whack the snooze button once though, and I’ve got to stop doing that, as it might be defeating the purpose. Duh.
