Completely ticked off - Grounded off the computer, video games, and cell phone for NOT ANSWERING my mother's phone calls (irrational mothers for the win)

Smiled - Well more of a grin....I'm here ain't I? Though in a way it's good because now I can just check Youtube, check the forums, check email, and listen to podcasts instead of getting on Facebook and Twitter to talk to people for hours on end. Now I can finally crawl into the hole I made for myself! God I'm such an antisocial. :P

I can't hate on your Mom. It drives me nuts the few times my wife hasn't answered her cell. Makes me a nervous wreck.

Smile: My sales are going through the roof! I know it's "yarn season" after all, but I sold over $4,000 of yarn yesterday. That's over 1,000 skeins of yarn. That's like selling out an entire Wal-Mart stores inventory of yarn in one day.

Ticked: Not much. I wish we had a bring your dog to work day.

Ticked off: having trouble finding resources for a paper I'm writing on the nutrition of the Grande Armee during the Franco-Russo war of 1812.

Smiled: Two birds with one stone: Got my VA authorization for a course I want to take AND an extra science with a lab requirement taken care of with one email.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

My wife flips when I don't answer the phone. She swears that I have been killed by alien basektball players who came to Earth to challange our species to a pickup game.
