Happy Hump Day.

I woke up today with the desire to not be awake. I've found that happens most days, at least until I've had my first cup of coffee. I got a little school done yesterday, and Jon and I got to watch a movie together last night. That's rare since most nights we are both too tired to do anything but go to bed.

I'm taking a behavioral Science class this term, and the topic this week is teen sexuality. I about died laughing when one of the articles talked about an abstinence vow. I mean seriously? I found several articles stating why this didn't work. With rising teen pregnancy, I think schools should focus on educating kids on protecting themselves, and about what can result from sex. Instead they try to teach abstinence only sex education. This is a topic I found interesting as in the next few years I'll have a teen. I think the most important way to teach teens about sex, is to talk to them. A lot of parents are too shy about the subject or don't know how to bring it up. So kids learn about sex via the internet, media, school and their peers. I can't think of anything scarier then my kids learning about sex, from other uneducated kids.

I don't have anywhere to go today. I don't need to leave the house for an appointment. We don't need anything at the store, and neither kid has any after school activity today. I'm hoping to bust through my Access project today that's due this weekend, or at least start it.

We have a wonderful friend bringing supper tonight. Delicious Papa John's pizza. I can't wait!!! It will be nice to be able to be social with another adult without having to leave the house, and deal with the rage that comes with the traffic. Nothing fills me full of rage more then idiot drivers.

I keep anxiously checking my school site, waiting for the last bit of financial aid to disperse. That way I can get rid of this paper weight pretending to be a laptop, and buy a laptop free of identity crisis's.

A little bit of this and a little bit of that, I guess that's what my Wednesday is going to be. Let's all hope for a good rest of the week, filled with productivity and sunshine. NO MORE SNOW!
