is what my Anatomy assignment requires me to do, and as the deadline is 4pm tomorrow, I'm now under a self-enforced house-arrest until I get the thing done! :) In fact, I'm not quite sure why, but I feel as though my body needs a great deal of extra sleep or recuperation this week, though from what I don't know! A busy life I guess :) I often find myself waking at 7:15 and thinking, "no thanks" and then waking up over an hour later, obviously having needed the extra time! Though life without employment obviously has its own very real anxieties, I am so grateful I no longer have to be at a desk by 7:30am! Now that I am learning more about the body and how it functions, I am convinced that 'burn out' is not just an empty phrase; but means exactly what it says at a cellular level, if you don't allow yourself enough recuperation from the stresses and strains of life. Did you know for example that the brain generates much more protein when you are asleep than when you are awake?
Anyway, that's quite enough nerdy stuff from me! :) I'll end with a few photos from the birthday celebrations and wish you all a very good weekend (and plenty of sleep)!

Happy Birthday, you crazy kid! Inspired by you, I've been snapping autumn pics like mad, but have yet to find time to actually upload them and post them.
