Tony, my son just started grad school and he's finding out it's a whole new world from the undergrad one.
I warned him before he went, and he said OK, but it didn't really hit until he started classes. He was telling me about the swimming pool they had that was built for the Olympic team to practice, the treadmills with LCD TVs (he's into physical training), all the toys the new place had ...
... then he hit grad-level stoichiometry, industrial engineering and all the other fun courses he's taking. He said his time is really, really tight now - something his live-in girlfriend has to deal with. Luckily, she's on a similar schedule.
The only one who is really upset about it is his bearded dragon.
Hang in there - if she's the One, it'll be worth the wait.
Thanks for the advice. The only time I see her is when I pick her up from school and drive her home. It does getting alittle frustrating because I want to hang out with her but I understand what she is going through.
UUUGGGGGHHHH Just watched a very fit woman video on youtube and now I want to go run around the block for 5 hrs. Sometimes I have to remind myself I'm 36 not 26 anymore
years ago at my old house, they property next to my house was pair of old apartments, one night an ex boyfriend stabbed his ex. There was a SWAT call out and the whole nine yards. Glad he didn't come over the fence. He'd a brought a knife to a gun fight.
Good. Thing is, he's probably out on good behavior already.

Yeah, this is located just outside of the main center-city and it's usually a sleepy little place. It's just when you get the occasional white trash making a pit-stop here that you get problems.
I see it as practice.

You're welcome - I wish I had some more useful advice.
Sorry to hear about your BIL Chow
I hope things turn around for him.
Thanks, we're getting mixed messages from the doctors, at first things were OK, now were hearing that he almost died twice in the hospital.
He's still in ICU, were gonna go down there later, only allow 2 people in the room at the same time, were gonna have to juggle I guess.
Mrs. Chow told me that one of the doctors was getting really rude and sarcastic to her mother. I told Mrs. Chow that if I was around and heard that I'd put my foot so far up his ass he'd be choking on the leather. Pr ick, damn doctors think that they walk on water and these bastards forget who the f ck they work for.
Don't get me started on the AMA.... they are pulling a bunch of other crap worthy of a thread in of its own.

Something similar happened to me last night, I was watching Thor and wanted to go hit the gym right then (and I'm 36 too.)
You don't need it anyway, you are beautiful.
Speaking of shi*t like this, the goddamn base here just scared the shi*t out of me! I was reading in bed and heard something like an explosion rattling my house. At first I thought something was happening IN the house... perhaps the water heater exploded or an earthquake or something... I was even afraid to go to the garage, got out of the front door and took the spare garage opener with me. Nothing was wrong with my house, but the garage door was almost open! All the neighbors got out wondering WTF was going on. Soon the more "connected" people found out the goddamn base was doing "controlled" explosions! Explosions at almost 11 p.m.! Can't you friggin' do them during the day instead of freaking people out?! Not to mention, today was a particularly good day because there was already some scare about a gunman being on the base. Eventually, it turned out there was no man or gun!
The only good thing is that I now know for a fact my garage door opens on its own somehow should something like this happen! It happened once before on the 4th of July because of the fireworks, but I was told I was imagining things and I forgot to close it. I knew I hadn't! It freaks me out because I don't usually lock the door to the house, unless I travel. Gotta do something about it... Not sure what, though... The neighbors' garage doors didn't open. Only mine did...
Effing morons! At least I wasn't asleep yet.
Ahhhh, life in paradise. <takes a deep breath.......and>
