I came across an interesting poll today. Swag bucks gives out points for voting daily. The question they asked today was "If you had to choose one (and only ONE) of these modern day conveniences, which would you choose.
a) Running Water
b) Electricity
c) Internet
d) Phone
I chose electricity. I can't make it very long with out heat. Joel chose running water. I think both of these are logical answers, but 24% of people chose Internet? Yikes, we have some people with mixed up priorities in this world. Which would you choose and why?

Working OT
This past month I decided to pick up some extra hours at work. I gleefully calculated all of the extra income I'd be providing for Joel and I. I imagined paying off school debt twice as fast and taking glorious trips over seas. I was almost excited to get up at 5 am and get ready for work. That was week one. Fast forward two weeks. Working 6 out of 8 days (12 hour shifts mind you) really takes a toll on a person. I've had the last two days off and pretty much slept through most of day one. I feel a little better today (says the girl who took a nap at 8:00 am), but am still exhausted. I guess there is a reason they pay people time and a half to work those extra hours. I'm trying to find a balance between working, keeping my house organized, spending time with Joel, and being social. I think I'm doing pretty well on the first three....but very badly on that last one. Ughhh...maybe someday I'll find that perfect balance!
