Good Morning, Sunflower!

She Must Still Have Mischeif To Do (Thank God)

T Minus 36 Hours!

Tomorrow is Wicked!!!  I’m so excited I feel like a kid at Christmas and will probably sleep about as well as one tonight as well!  I’ve been going over and over it in my mind “what should I wear” and I keep praying that I haven’t set the bar too high because everyone I know [...]

Do I Smell Funky?

A year or so ago I was talking to one of the professors here about when she was earning her PhD.  She had to go to Alaska and work on a biostation off on a remote island.  She was there for a month with no facilities.  They washed in the rivers but they they knew [...]
