I've decided I will never be able to post again. I only get online every few days and my mother is usually home and decides she needs to call someone every five minutes. My dad's doing pretty well - we went hiking this past Sunday in South Mountains State Park outside of Morganton, NC, and saw High Shoals Falls. Very pretty...

I've basically been sitting on my ass, exercising, and cleaning for the past 2 months. I need to sign up for classes, or volunteer, or something... oh, and I'm getting my permit tomorrow. Haven't bought a car yet, but we've been looking - I want a Mazda Tribute, although I do feel pretty guilty about getting an SUV. It gets 19/24 to the gallon, not bad for an SUV, but still... I may have to trade it in next year when they come out with the Ford Escape that uses either natural gas or electricity to reduce the gas usage (I know there's a name for that but it completely escapes me.)

My life is too boring to post about, so I'll leave you with this current theory - in the green room on Wheel of Fortune, along with the snacks and stuff, they leave out 3 drinks, one for each contestant. One of them is spiked with sugar, caffeine, and uppers. Next time you watch, guess which one got the special drink. They're easy to spot.

I so need to get a life.
