…. a new mattress. I’d been sleeping on the same old futon mattress for the last five years. After awhile, you just get used to it, and you think all mattresses are like that. Not so.

I passed my first economics test tonight! Yes, that’s right… I got a C! Seriously, have you seen the graphs? The graphs, oh I loathe them. Hey, I’ll take the C.
