you come to realize how dependant you are on common conveniences once your ATM card stops working. I finally got my new one today.

It seems so strange to me that as a generalization people work better and relax more easily when their schedules are much more full. Maybe there is an inherant sense of urgency mixed with a sense of accomplishment and a better gauge of priorities in these situations. Whatever it is I don't understand why I have more fun, do more work and get better grades in these situations.

I have a general good feeling about this year. Already I won money in Reno, and I won money on the Superbowl. To top it off my team won, plus I have been speckled with good fortune in other ways as well.
