Apparently there was a leak in the air conditioner, but it is fixed now. And both fish are still alive. So what should I do with my cats when I am in Indiana this weekend? My mom thinks I can just leave them at home, but I’m wary about doing that. I want to board them, but that’s really expensive… So I had an interesting discussion yesterday about being a vegetarian/vegan. Someone I work with is a vegan (which means…
I am been thinking about what I should write here, because I don’t want to just repeat everything I’ve been saying. So I’ll touch on some of the things that were commented about. First of all, I think I am being misunderstood about this issue – to me, this isn’t about spouse vs. parents, but about life vs. death.

So tonight I am up, awake, and I decided to do a little research. Apparently a lot of the things I experience are symptoms of insomnia. The most obvious, of course, is my inability to fall asleep most nights. Also, I…
