Long time, no post, so this is kind of a mish-mash.
Lots of things happening, not all of them good. In fact, some not so good at all, and--well, I'll just leave it at that.
School has started! Rita has mucho classes, I am taking Spanish again. Since they didn't offer it at West Valley, I had to take it at Mission. But that's not too bad, it is just down the road from work. Found out that I actually have to show up at the language lab, where at West Valley I didn't (You got CDs to listen to). But my instructor made a good point: Someone got paid good money for me to not show up last semester, and that makes even more outrageous the fact that the lab instructor got totally bent out of shape last semester when some of the students actually contacted her!
I've told people that I've been running behind this year: I've only just caught the summer cold. It's been a doozy, though, and I've been off work because of it.
You may have seen that M&Ms had a dark chocolate version out for a while, but you can't get them any more. I wrote them, and they said:
I'm thinking of starting a campaign to bring them back permanently, with a web site and everything. Yeah. In my free time. My biggest concern would be to find a web site provider that is cheap, but that can handle being slashdotted. Not that it would necessarily happen, but we're talking chocolate here, and you never know with chocolate...In the meantime, you can go to http://us.mms.com/us/legal/feedback.jsp and let them know you want dark M&Ms to stay!
The video that I mentioned last time went well, even though I still haven't done the out-takes. Soon, I hope...
We've actually watched some Anime, called Fruits Basket. Bekah is jealous...
Well, that's about it for now. I think I'm going to go take a nap, to see if I can't knock this cold out for good!

M&M'S DARK CHOCOLATE CANDIES were only available for a limited time and sold out very quickly. The product cannot be purchased via the Internet nor directly from us.
This product will be available again at the end of September through November 2005. As in the Spring, the product will be available in limited quantities at, Target, Walmart and Kroger. We hope you will watch for them.
