~*FAT...not PHAT*~
Well, here I sit on the second day of my vacation. I'm bored. I slept late, then I worked on school assignments for 4 hours, then I ate junk food, and then I took a nap. All within the few short hours of 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. and I'm bored. I need to accomplish something during this vacation.

I have a classmate in one of my classes that is bullying me. She says that I need to "take her advise" on something that we are discussing in class. No, I don't need to take her advise. I have a brain of my own. She's just mad because the teacher likes me best. Yeah! She's just a bit snippy because the professor always responds to my posts with, "good communicators like you show the benefits" and "Lisa, you have applied so much that will help you succeed very well in all your college classes" and also, "You speak here for so many of us, but you certainly said it better than I could have." I'm sorry if she feels a bit threatened. Poor baby.

I'm eating lasagna tonight. I wish I could say that myself or Scott has made this dish from scratch, but it is a Stouffer's frozen dish. It is an extremely fattening meal, but hey, I'm on vacation! To add to the fat of the lasagna, I plan to eat mashed potatoes and garlic bread. After all that food, I may take another nap.

In only 4 days, I have eaten two bags of Ruffles and two containers of cottage cheese. I am actually craving these. I eat the cottage cheese like dip. Could I be pregnant?

Random facts of impress your friends:
1. In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase "goodnight, sleep tight".
2. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in- law with All the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month we know today as the honeymoon.
3. In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them mind their own pints and quarts and settle down. It's where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's"
4. Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the Rim or handle of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to get some service. "Wet your whistle" is the phrase Inspired by this practice.
5. In Scotland, a new game was invented. It was entitled Gentlemen Only Ladies Forbidden.... and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language.
