Dr. Who- in America!

One of my greatest dreams came true today: Dr. Who has been embraced by widespread American culture. Right now in the Georgia vs. Arkansas game, the marching band is playing the Dr. Who theme.  It brings tears of happiness to my eyes.

Countdown!

15 full days until Washington!
42 full days until Halloween!
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!

It's coming...


My favorite holiday is 47 days away.... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :)

Bleh...

Today I am cursed with a nasty head/nose/throat cold complete with fever.  I really don't believe that anyone would want me at school today.  Would anyone like to inform me what I missed today?
