Frustrations!

The Boring One is very frustrated right now. Her mode of transportation seems to be needing more repairs than it doesn't. On her way back from a trip over Labor Day weekend, the brakes went out and needed to be replaced. She is very annoyed because she has replaced several things, which though not expensive, did delve into her already starved pocket book. The past few weeks, she has been noticing that the engine to this vehicle has been revving very high. Tonight, she discovered that her car is not shifting out of third gear. This is very disconcerting to The Boring One, as she is afraid that her transmission is going out, and she cannot afford to spend money to replace a transmission. She wishes that she had borrowed the money to get a better car. She has decided that she officially hates her car and wishes that she could smash it with a baseball bat and just replace it with a new one that does not need to be fixed so often.

Sorry to be a downer - I feel slightly better now that I've vented. Thanks for listening!

Hurricane Hits Southern Indiana

That's right, folks. The midwest is no longer immune to hurricanes. They called this one a dry hurricane, but it rushed through the region with 72 mile per hour winds, with gusts reaching up to 105 miles per hour, or so I am informed. The destruction left thousands of homes without electricity.

The Boring One was one such individual until she arrived home tonight to find that electricity had been restored to her humble abode. What elation she felt, and gained the energy to clean the foul, stinking mess Hurricane Ike (she supposes we still call him, er, it Ike) left in her refrigerator. The stink had penetrated into the far confines of the apartment, and she felt a need to scour the kitchen, which further inspired her to clean the rest of her living quarters. After the living room was cleaned, however, she discovered that inspiration doesn't necessarily equal energy. Therefore, the two bedrooms and bathroom were left till the morrow, and the Boring One turned on her computer to write to her friends in the Blog World and then go to sleep. She wished everyone speed in gaining electricity, and wished those in other regions of the country a good night.

And that's all the late breaking news from TBC, The Boring Corner. I'm The Boring One, back to you in the studio...

'Night Folks!

Hello

Life stays busy, but I am finding that my body and expectations are adapting to that. I've adjusted to the sleeping six or less hours per night thing, and I feel that the Lord has been very good to me in that. I don't feel nearly as tired as I expected to feel with little sleep. In fact, I am more tired if I get a night with 8 hours of sleep. Go figure.

I really ought to be studying for anatomy or cleaning right now, but I figured I would say hello. (Besides, I studied for a long time last night - and cleaned too!)

Well, that's all for now, folks!

Toodles.
