Tired... day 2 of cleaning... vacuuming various bedrooms... then dad shampoos the carpet...

I want time off dang it, this is almost as bad as homework... but worse than tests!

That's the number one thing on my wish list for sure for sure....

GO DUCKS GO

Go where?

I am now officially graduated. There's even video, if I can get my dad to send it to me.

And loot! Diamond earrings from the 'rents; flowers, candy, and a stuffed buffalo from my former coworkers; and from my brother - an engraved gavel.

Yeah, it's a little early in the career for a gavel, but it amuses me. And I can use it to sentence Ryan to taking out the garbage.

Plus, it meant that at some point during lunch I got to say: "I can't wait to get home and play with my gavel!" - which nearly caused Ryan to spit out his water.

Congratulations Prudence!! It really is a HUGE accomplishment.

I am trying to be patient and wait for a call from a friend. We are going to a Christmas party put on by a bunch of the guys we work with. Boy is with The Old People tonight (no curfew for me!). My next door neighbor told me if I drink to call a cab and he will take me to get my car in the morning.

David is picking Nick up tomorrow night. I won't get him back until early Christmas morning. I almost feel guilty about looking forward to him not being home. Now I will be able to get stuff done and the living room cleaned.

I've been playing with the new vacuum most of the day.

Haven't seen the cats in hours.

Our rabbit likes to punch gentlemen callers in the head

Congratulations Pru!
