I was supposed to turn in a 20 page paper. But I can't manage to stretch the subject for more than 11 pretty solid pages, without it turning into utter trash. Diagram time?

Absolutely. everyone loves diagrams, cause no matter how good your paper is, if it isnt a phd thesis, 'the guy' probably doesn't care, so he'll spend the time wondering what the pictures turn into if he squints and rotates them left and right.

I'm awake. AND IT IS COLD.

Diagrams are a good idea. Also, you can fiddle with the spacing between lines so that it's not exactly single spaced but looks close. Then there's font size/type... there are endless possibilities.

doomed children of Mother Dark.

My arse crack hangs out the back of my new trousers every time I sit down. Unwise purchase or fat arse. Either way, it's messing with my groove!

Ah yes, the classic vest-tucked-in-knickers look. I can just picture Amphibian in it now.......... Did you have to wear a thong?

I wonder if our North American contingent are familiar with the terminology 'knickers' I think they generally call that item of ladies underwear 'panties' which has always sounded to me like a word a child might use for pants or the brand name of those intermediate stage nappy (diaper) type things older babies wear.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

My dog just did something under my desk that is so noxious I'm going to rename him Biohazard.

My younger siblings are at each other's throats for the umpteenth time. The little snotbags are incapable of going a solid day without some form of conflict, and as a result run my poor mum ragged, not to mention myself. Both always think the other is at fault, always. Thankfully, one of them is leaving on camp tommorow.

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Maybe I'm using reverse stalker psychology!

I got offered a new job. It's a really good job. It's a great opportunity. It's more money. It would normally be cause for the Happy thread except the job is on the wrong frickin continent.
