T'was the night before the deadline and all through the house...

Hello All,

 Yes, I'm doing my newfound "leave it till its due" today. :D Only a couple of algebra problems and a page of notes though so it isn't very bad...not like last time. :lol: 

 So yesterday I went and helped with the little darlings at their baseball practice, and me and my dad were the only reason it really kept going past the first few minutes...the coach was ready to quit by the time they all had hit once. :roll: After seeing how "good" she is at coaching I may have to seriously consider becoming a coach myself next year...yes, John the t-ball coach, a thought that is odd on so many levels...my little brother's team also got swapped, he was supposed to be one of the Oakland Athletics, but instead they were stuck as the Florida Marlins...:?

 I've also decided that perhaps my hitting of water while thinking of places to go is a sign. After all cruise ships exist for a reason. :wink: And Hawaii is a beautiful place. However it still is far off, so anything I think of now is more just possibilities than what I will do. I also don't plan on putting too many details on here, after all, do I really want some wacko from here to stalk me? I'd say no if you were wondering...

 Now for a few questions, and a contest thingy.

 First of all, have any of you been having problems with the PM system? I've been experiencing quite a few lately...

 Secondly, what is a good way to focus your mind, when it keeps slipping off to a certain thing?

 And Third, how did you stumble onto my blog?

 Now for the contest thingy!  For this one you will pm me your answer, and I will select a person, at random, to look at the answer of. Should you get it wrong I'll do it again and pick another.  Mind that I felt the other question was far too easy, this one should be harder.
