So, as of this morning I've already worked over 40 hours this week. I can no longer retain any information for more than a minute or two or wear my contacts more than 20 minutes before my eyes start to burn. But hey, once this week is over, it should get better. Yesterday I logged in to check my gmail for a minute and I had an email from Dave Ramsey (of the FPU) and it said, 'don't stop now Andrea! You're a gazelle!' Thanks, Dave Ramsey. I did need that reminder that I was more than halfway throught the week and not to give up. I didn't actually open it, as I'm sure it was not anything that would help me right now, but I thought it was funny.

Gazelle, eh? Quite a gesture for him to offer that up to you...people usually call me a baboon...I'm not sure how to take that...

A gazelle? Being chased by a cheetah? Cause that seems more like the analogy I would use for this week.

Man, I love Dave Ramsey. I do try and say that I'm doing thinsg with "gazelle intensity" like he does, just because I think it freaks people out.

Well, gazelle intensity is an interesting visual... Rachel, he does talk about cheetahs chasing gazelles. But what is even better than the cheetahs chasing them is that the first line, that G-mail lets me see in the subject line, says 'Does your email look like it was mangled by a cheetah?' I guess because links are not enabled. Mostly mangled makes me think of mangling one's portrait on Facebook. Also, I saw something on the news this morning about pirates, but I can't remember what it was because, well, you know...
