Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think it might be 24. There are, as far as I know, "supplemental" loans that you can live on, but most of the students I work with are older.

I don't know if there are any smokers or ex-smokers on the board right now, but...

You know how people smoking on TV or in a movie or what have you makes you want a smoke. Well, I have started watching Rescue Me, and it is having the opposite effect. I can just viscerally feel exactly how these guys smell, and every time they light up, it makes me nauseated. This might be good for quitting.

Time changes are bad for cats and dogs.

Times changes SUCK for toddlers who simply don't get it.

I was worried we'd have an issue with putting the baby down tonight, but he went right to sleep around "7:45." Yay!

Kat, according to my mom, I threw up every year when the time changed. Until I was ten. I did not throw up at any other time of the year.

I cleaned a bit more of my apartment. Still a mess, but I can see where there used to be stuff and there's now clear floor or table.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That's... kind of awesome.

24 or 25 sounds about right - I think my first year at McGill I was below the cutoff and after that it was a lot easier to support myself without needing help from my folks.
