It looks like Dale and I are still looking for two roommates to stay with us, so if you know anyone still looking for a room, and who has a car (or would be willing to split the cost of renting one), let me know.

Too bad this is during CC. It'd be fun, but I don't want to lose more sleep - I'll be tired enough as it is! tongue
