How many damn versions of "Layla" are there??
One EXCELLENT version is cream colored and has a big head and fluffy ears. (My doggie)
Wesley: Perhaps the whole point of this experiment is hair. Gunn: I vote he's not in charge.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Awwww! I forgot her name was Layla. That is an excellent version. I wish I could meet her one day.

So all's well in Gracie-land.
Yay! I'm just really hoping Joey is sitting at my friend's back door when she gets home.
Happy Birthday, Owen!

Always Anti-fascist!
Love that. (Even as I want to get a black lab one day and call him Gee.) Or maybe another cat, to be Omar.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
No iPod this semester...
The reason you established this incentive was to keep yourself honest about rationalizing your absences. Which, I think it did in this instance. I think you ought to go to class, even though you're not prepared. As Scrappy notes, you need to learn to deal with your imperfections and that means going in unprepared and learning that's not the end of the world.
Personally, I'm for keeping the strict interpretation of the rule. It's no tragedy if you have to wait another semester to get an iPod. And having the incentive has been useful for you - both to get you to class, and as a marker to look at why you wouldn't go to class. But I think you should look at your behavior at the end of the day, after you've gone to the class, after you see how your headache is and then decide. I think if you go to class, deal with it, don't avoid any conversations with your teacher, are honest about everything with yourself then you're still in the game.
Happy birthday Owen, you handsome devil!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm fuzzy now. vw, when you get back -- did you go to your other classes today but not Deliverance class, or did you also go to Deliverance class? And which one(s) were you worried about not being prepared for?

Up with the sun
{{{{vw}}}} I don't have any advice, but I do not think missing class because you have a migraine and know the class topic may upset you makes you any kind of failure.
And I also think you should go to your other classes, even though you aren't as prepared as you would like to be. I have no opinion on the iPod.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Gods, I think we're buying a minivan.
The price of gas is going up and up and up and up and up.
And aren't the ones you'd get used death traps with no safety cage?
