I can't believe the Cards were shut out of the World Series. It's like they weren't even the same team as just a week before when they played so hard to become champions of the National League. Dad said he thought it was the first time that a team had lost four straight right off the bat. Poor Cards. While I'm happy that the Red Sox aren't cursed anymore, I really wish there could have been a better scene for the fans the last two nights at Busch Stadium. Ah well. At least Busch might make it into a Jimmy Fallon-Drew Barrymore movie. It's sad that the last season played at Busch couldn't have ended better. But congrats anyway, Cards, you won 105 games this season and played well until that major bump in the road called Boston. Oy. Alrighty then... I'll send out a big ol' GO RAMS and shush about sports.

I also can't believe that it's the last week of October. Where did the year go? I've been 24 for two months already....but on the other hand it feels like much much longer than two months, what with organic chemistry and attempting to work on writing...of course, with orgo I could stand to have many more weeks between me and the next test, which as it stands now is only two weeks. Sigh. Didn't we have a test last week? Yes. Wasn't it horrible? Relatively speaking, not horrible, but not anywhere near low-stress. I guess we'll see if I can handle writing and working problem sets at the same time. I want an iPod. (That seems random, doesn't it? But it would allow me to get away from the computer which contains a wonderful selection of music, yet is quite stationary sitting on my desk. My other desk, that is, the one at work, which doesn't help me when I'm studying at home.)

Kate's halloween party is this weekend. I'm excited. I hope she will dress up also...I missed dressing up all this year since I didn't do it at the StL renfaire and didn't go to the KC one. Ah well. Too bad I didn't have time to work on a HP robe. One day, grasshopper.

If all goes rightly, there should be a new layout up tomorrow. Cross your fingers that I actually got all the coding to work right. I hope I did.
