Comment Re:well, the economy does suck (Score 1) 379

Cars sucked from an adult standpoint, I have met very few who actually liked the movie. I don't know anymore if I ever liked it, I've seen it way too many times to make an accurate judgement at this point. However it was a great move on Pixar's part because children love cars, cars that talk are even better. My son's bedroom can attest to the greatness of this movie. Fortunately Wall-E came out and I was able to quit wondering if I was going to raise some Nascar freak, but he still asks for Cars toys and whatnot.

Human beings that have previously worked on awful school computers instinctively hit ctrl-s every minute or two! After losing a couple of documents because the thing froze I learned this habit. I feel dumb when I am making a post somewhere and it gets lengthy and I begin to ctrl-s in the middle of it.

People can find time if they try. I work full-time and go to school full-time as well as a single mother to a three year old. I am just starting a freelance career in addition to all of that. I baked my own bread without a bread machine up until about two weeks ago when I started writing papers and doing projects with nearly every moment of spare time. Now that I took my last final today I plan on returning to baking bread. It tastes so amazing and I miss it. Store-bought bread can never beat fresh-baked bread straight from your oven. Most of the time we eat pretty healthy. My refrigerator is full of fruits and veggies from a local produce store that sells it all pretty cheap. It's all in what someone is willing to put into it.

Comment No coffee for me (Score 1) 700

I'm not a coffee person. I like my tea (I'm American) and when I need to get things done on little sleep (which is often, full-time job + full-time courseload + part-time work study + 3 year old mini-geek + side project = very little sleep) I tend to rely on Amp or at least a bit of Mountain Dew. Or I rely on various caffeinated Slurpees from the 7 Eleven that is two minutes from my apartment, which are my person favorite as a "starter" caffeine drink.
