Once again...
You're is a contraction of the words 'you' and 'are.' Ex: You're dumber than a crate of anvils, aren't you?
Your indicates the possessive. Ex: Your signs are misspelled.
I've seen way too many signs lately that make these mistakes, and it drives me nuts!!! One, in a local convenience store, uses 'you'r' and 'your' when they clearly mean you're. I'm going to upgrade to a camera phone sometime soon, and document this bullshit.

A Public Service Announcement
From the 'Water is Wet' Department...
Stonehenge builders had geometry skills to rival Pythagoras
Y'know, I get really, really tired of the assumption that people in the past = stupid.

The Phoenix has landed!
NASA' new Mars lander touched down successfully tonight, in a mission that was said to have a 50/50 chance at success. This makes me happy! This one is evidently designed to dig into the surface and find even earlier evidence of water, or maybe even actual water!

Okay, there's lots of news, but I'm still feeling like crap, so not tonight. Maybe tomorrow...

Stupid pollen count
Stupid unemployment. Stupid anxiety. Stupid insomnia. Stupid acid reflux. Stupid life in general. I am tired, I am stressed, I have a migraine, and I'm broke. But I get to go see Sex and the City next week! /me screws smile into place. Joy.
