101st Blog Post The quotations will return tomorrow....

I just realized I made my 100th blog post yesterday. That seems like it is sort of an occasion. Break out the bubbly. :P I reread the book The Road by Thomas McCarthy last night. (In case you are wondering I stayed up all night). I slept from 6:45 AM until 9:00 AM. You can be awfully productive if you just stay up around the clock, I guess.

My Texas tags expired on my vehicle this month. I had just kept renewing the tags like I lived in Texas. And I decided it was time to get rid of the Lone Star Tag. :( Although I will miss it. The new tag is brilliant....I love how the S's look like meat hooks in Mississippi. I believe I have mentioned this before but I am going to have to repeat. Living in Mississippi is something else. No where else do they spell your state at you. Say someone I don't know asks "Where do you live?" I respond "Mississippi" inevitably the person will spell it back to me. Not "M-I-S-S etc." But "M-I-Crooked Letter-Crooked Letter etc..." No where else in the union does this happen. If you were to come up to me and say "I live in Alaska," I wouldn't immediately go "A-L-A-S-K-A, Alaska." Maybe I just talk to weird people. But I get the state spelled at me a lot. More than my fair share anyway....

Other than that I live near a HUGE Casino in Philadelphia, MS. I love telling people I live near Philly just to confuse them. It gives me no end of pleasure to pull this when I go visit my parents (who happen to actually live near Philly-the real one).

We leave for Miami Wednesday morning EARLY which is perfect that is just when I am going to sleep these days. (All those vampire books I have been reading). I have a new suit to wear to my presentation!

I am getting the rest of my discussion questions for comps to study in the next 2 weeks. That gives me 2 solid months to study.
