NOTIONS-THURSDAY

• Another round of crazy storms hit North Texas last night. Have I ever told you guys just how terrified I am of thunderstorms? Some people think it's ridiculous, but to all those people, I KNOW there is something that scares all of us. My scary thing is storms. I'll deal with yours, you deal with mine.
• They finally fired Miss California. I was wondering how long it would take them.
• My dog is also scared of thunderstorms and everytime it thunders loud enough to wake her up, she jumps up growling and barking at it. I didn't get much sleep last night.
• I wonder how many people have to be shown on tv being plucked out of their sinking cars before the idiots of the world will realize, "hmmm, maybe I shouldn't drive through this deep, rushing water crossing the road." I'm with Silicone Alley on this one, I think. Well, we should at least make them wait a few minutes to think about their poor decision.
• Today, I announce that I officially HATE astronomy. My online lab is something straight out of the 80's computer generation. I might as well be working on a Commodore 64.
• I think maybe I should have thought about it a little more before I signed up for an accelerated science class.
• I just found out that the new house won't have the internet until the 19th. This is bad, considering I am required to log in daily for participation grades in both classes, and considering that the moving company is coming Saturday the 13th to move everything out of this house...meaning I'll be camping out in the old house, sleeping on the floor, no tv, no chairs, no dishes for food.
• If I had my financial aid yet, I might take off to Bridgeport and just do my classes from there, but I don't get that until next wednesday.
• I went to a little Mexican food restaurant last night called Molina's. I've been there several times before. It's located in Commerce, Tx, just behind the A&M campus. It has great food there, but last night I tried the Pechuga Milanesa. It was delicious. So, if you ever find yourself in Commerce, find this restaurant. I will warn you, the front part of it is a bar, so if you go at night, it might be a bit rowdy, but its safe.
• I have to dring decaf tea today, since all the regular tea has been packed. I find it to be a little like coffee. If it's decaf, what is the point? Give me the good stuff.
• Well, it's back to Marketing for me.
