Back-to-School-Time Starts Monday...

When I climbed out of bed this morning at about 8:00, after lingering for a half-hour luxuriating in the knowledge that I didn't have to bounce out of bed, and, while dreading the inescapable fact that tomorrow is the first day of school and the alarm will rudely force me into consciousness at 5 or 5:30 AM, I sighed, and, briefly, wished I could turn back the clock to June.

Briefly is the operative word. The good things about the start of the new school year probably outweigh the negatives. I just need to get mind and body clock back into school mode.

Speaking of beds, I found this fun blogthing.

What Your Bed Says About You

Outward appearances are very important to you. You do your best to look good and have an attractive home. You are an organized and disciplined person. You do the right thing because you want to, not because people expect you to. You are very high maintenance. You like everything a certain way, and you're grumpy if things aren't the way you like them. In relationships, you tend to be quite dominant. You enjoy taking charge. You tend to be a down to earth, practical person. You think in terms of what is actual. You are a bit of a homebody, but you can also make yourself at home anywhere.

Let the Parties Begin!

There ya go.... your tax dollars at work, folks! We kick off in Denver next week, then on to the mega Republican bashes.

Yep, we, the taxpayers, are shelling out $17million bucks to each Party for these 4-day campaign ads.

The economy is suffering, we taxpayers are struggling to make ends meet, but the favored and monied will be partying and playing, to a large extent, on our dimes, for the next several weeks!

There are just some years when these extravaganza seem excessive and leave a bad taste in the mouth. In this, seemingly, endless election season I don't think we really need our tax dollars being spent on this in an effort to 'get to know' our candidates.

Unless you live under a rock, there is no American who doesn't know who the candidates are, and, basically, what their talking points are.

Our tax dollars could be better spent.

What Font Are You?

Ok, here ya go. Ever wonder what font you'd be?

You Are Arial Black

You are bold, over the top, and quite loud. You'll stand up and stand up to get your point across. Subtlety isn't really your thing. You sometimes come off as crass and abrasive. You're not as passionate as people might think. You just enjoy overwhelming other people!
