A whirlwind!!

I can say that it seems that the weeks and months are flying by. No sooner do we start a month or week and it is already on to the next one. I guess that is good in a way, so this craziness will be over sooner than we know it.

Not too much new going on here. We are both still plugging along with school. it is so time consuming and brain numbing, but at least we are both doing well, grade wise. :) we did take some time out this friday to see Religulous. It is a movie by Bill Maher addressing the idea that most organized religions believe the same basic things, yet everyone who believes those religions believes their religion is correct. How is that truly possible? I really enjoyed it. He asks a lot of great questions.

We have put up a lot of new photos in our house. It has been quite a project, but it is done now and they all look great. It is nice to walk around the house and see faces of friends and family.

This is sad, but one of the highlights of this weekend was purchasing a new desk lamp for michael to use in the office and a laptop desk for me to use on the couch. Our respective study spots are Michael in the office and me on the couch. :) the old desk lamp put off a ton of heat and so the office always got very hot, this new one is an LED one and it is much better. My wrist was always hurting from using my laptop and mouse while on the couch, so now I have a new laptop desk that i can put in my lap and it has a spot for me to use my mouse, so hopefully my wrist wont hurt as much.

One thing I do want to talk about are the debates and the presidential election. So, I know most of you know that I am democrat, but this election is really bringing that out. First off, we need a change in this country, things have really gone downhill over the past 8 years. Second, did you see Palin during the debate? do we really want someone from some small town in Alaska who can barely put whole thoughts together possibly running the country? I don't. Now, for Biden, i really like him. I know he is arrogant and such, but i still like him. How can I not like someone who wrote the Violence Against Women Act? I actually wrote my policy analysis paper last semester on that act. We actually thought about getting an Obama/Biden yard sign, but you actually have to pay for them and on principle, I don't think I should pay for something that will help advertise for someone. Anyway, I might actually still purchase one, we will see. :)

Well, I am off my high horse for now. Have a great week everyone.
