Now that I got that out of the way, I should post something that might possibly be of some interest to my readers.
This morning I woke up to the sound of Mom's voice as she ran around getting ready to go to a high school reunion in Seattle. It was just after 8:00 she and Thomas were just leaving. I didn't want to get up just then because I didn't have school today (because of advising) and I wanted to take advantage of the time to stay in bed. A few minutes later Gretha called. I hadn't said anything this morning yet so there was a frog firmly lodged in my throat. I croaked "Hi" and she wondered if she had woken me up. I croaked again and I think she understood me to mean "no." Anyways, we had agreed to meet at the college today to go over chapter 11 in a&p for the exam on Monday. I wasn't sure when exactly I could meet her so I said I'd call her back later. I took a quick shower (20 minutes is quick) to start off the day (it's always good to start off the day on a good note), tried to find out when Dad was going to town (since I was dependent on him for a ride for several reasons: (1) I don't have a license and won't till I'm 18; (2) two of our cars are in the shop getting fixed (I really don't know if we ever have all our vehicles out of the shop at once, seriously); (3) Aki had to take one van to to work in Chelan (because her car is in the shop) and Mom took the other van to Seattle. The only car left is the truck and I can't drive that for reasons stated above and it's a stick shift (which I don't know how to drive anyways). So that was the car situation.
After I found out the approximate time that Dad wanted to leave, I worked on my article critique for political science on the goals of liberal education. It's a really interesting paper and I might post it or provide a link for it on my blog. I made some progress on it and will probably finish it tomorrow (hopefully). And I will continue this post tomorrow.....
