I'd be happy with a gold star. Just a modest gold star. Then, when I am finished with my final essay (which I haven't even started writing yet!), I will be asking for... two gold stars! And maybe, just maybe, some hard liquor.

I would love to write more, but I have to read a 40-page chapter on international trade and investment for the big economics quiz nine hours from now, and my eyelids are already drooping. It never ends, does it. Actually, I believe I will go play Super Mario World 2 and zone out for awhile... I have all night!
