School is keeping me very, very busy. Thursday night I studied a long time for a test to be taken the following morning. I did well, much better than most of the other students. I was glad I studied. Studying is a new concept to me. I never had to in high school, and all my college classes up 'til now have been as cake. Oh well. I missed a couple questions about SCSI, to which I now know the answers. I mean, the SCSI bus can tolerate eight devices per channel, but you have to count the SCSI controller card, so the answer is, of course, seven. What an idiot I am. I also use too many commas.

It's been cooler the past couple of days. I'm glad Fall will be here soon. I love the last three months of the year; college basketball starts, there're several birthdays in the family, the weather is great, and there's no shortage of holidays. I can understand why people might consider me "old fashioned". I attribute it to my rural upbringing, which I’m thankful to’ve had. If you’re not from around here and you visit, you’ll soon learn we have about 100 extra contractions.
