Explain THIS one to me...
The University just posted its tentative Exam Schedule for December. It just so happens that I only have one exam this time. Greatness, right? Yeah, not so much.
My summer employer offered me hours during Christmas break, if I can get down to northwestern Minnesota in time. Here's the catch, my exam isn't until the 22nd. I am going to lose close to ( Read more... ) -

Writer's Block: Bedside Manners
Definitely Princeton-Plainsboro. I mean, c'mon it's House! -
Writer's Block: Forbidden Reading
To be honest, after a certain age, my mom stopped trying to stop me from reading certain books. I would maybe not read certain ones in front of the family unless I wanted to start something, and then it was fair game after that.

Just a Blurb That Came Up...
Okay, so I was sitting in Anthro class this morning, trying not to fall asleep, and this suddenly popped into my head. Maybe I could turn this into a story, maybe not. Have to see, I guess.
Idea?/Prompt?/Whatever?
She had no idea what was about to hit her. Maybe there should have been a bit more of paying attention. Or, maybe it was a bit of genetics ( Read more... )
