One of the kids (20yo) is having a bunch of friends over for a movie night and card games at 8pm today.

It’s Monday.

Why does this happen on a Monday?

I’m old and wanna be in bed by 9:30.

When the answer is in the syllabus and you still ask the question I think you should lose .5% of your grade.

I sure hope “was raised that way” is not going to be accepted as a valid excuse.

Glad to see all the Sens fans on here screaming at the top of their lungs that they won’t stand for having a homophobic bigot on their team.

Still dealing with cognitive fog and fatigue almost two months post-concussion. I’m trying to take two courses this semester but not sure if I’ll be able to manage it.

I don’t drive for medical reasons so depend on Uber a fair bit. But, the overly scented vehicles absolutely kill my allergies. Yesterday and today were particularly terrible.
Wish they’d have a scent free option.
