Don't you wish sometimes you had a snooze button on life?
I'm heading back to school tomorrow and dreading it like crazy (mainly due to the various changes that will be taking place this year due to budget cuts). I just wish I could hit the snooze button and have a couple more days off. It would be postponing the inevitable, but I would savor those days just like I savor the extra 9 minutes of sleep when I hit the real snooze button.

*sigh* :(

2. I know...
August is waaay too early to begin school. Especially since it's forecasted to be 100 degrees all this week. We should all be at the pool!

I don't start getting into an academic mood until mid-September.

3. Well I suppose
you could always hope the blackout moves a little further in your direction, and school gets postponed. ;-)

4. I guess, technically, we always do kind of have a snooze button
But just like the snooze button, life goes on and the hours tick by whether you're participating or not.
