I got, well a native food here. Delicious! I'm always asking for that every lunch time. But sadly they don't cook that for everyday.

Currently watching a show on NGC called "Inside 9/11". What is it about devastation that rivets our attention to it? It's still just as horrible years later, yet, I still can't look away. And upon hearing stories from survivors and those left behind, it only serves to exacerbate my condition. I'm going to bed. :disagree:

Sorry Sandi! I've been having a rough time adjusting to the "Daylight savings time" switch. I'm a creature of habit. I go to bed at 10 pm and get up at 6 am... without an alarm clock. Now that they went back to 'normal' time, I can't adjust. I'm sleepy at 9 and wake up at 5! I keep trying to stay up until 10 and acclimate myself... but it just makes me so TIRED all day long!

The American people just KEEP asking WHY THE HELL DO WE DO THIS??? The time change was originally dreamed up to save on lamp oil before electricity. They keep saying that we save a lot of energy doing this. I think it's Horse Hockey! The lack of productivity from people like myself who can't just 'change over' more than over shadows any small decrease in energy usage!

Yeah we have that here too. I can't for the life of my see the point of it, it's an annoyance, and even more for those who are habitual in their sleeping (not me, but I am not without concern for others ;) ).

New record for my university! One of our most boring professors managed to stretch 5 concentrated minutes of lesson into 115 mins!! The rest of the lesson was obviously random talk that somehow connected to the subject(barely) and numerous repeats of the same thing all over again in a different way. Oh did I mention that he had told almost all of it the last time? :)

Seriously I have no idea how he managed to do that :tired:
I, for one, am dying to find out what colour they paint Michael's toenails.

it's okay Letty, you, I forgive :) I also am not a fan of daylight savings

I was just reading some comments that readers had put on some cricket news, and came across this little gem:
I think the current Sri Lankan team is the best to have toured Australia apart from the past teams who toured.

Daylight savings are fun... if only to see you people squirm... :devil:

Also, people that have fixed sleeping hours are crazy... weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I'm getting better. Actually managed to stay up until 10... and ALMOST stayed in bed until the alarm went off. (Retraining my bladder is the hardest part - but that falls into the TMI category.) I got up, then went back to just lay there and pretend to sleep until 6.

I agree bladder re-training sucks. :(

You should have gone to school where i went... you learn to control your bladder pretty fast when you're too afraid to go near the toilet because you might catch something just by looking at it... :vomit:
