This Is It - Today's The Day

Today I take the sciences portion of my National Board. My exam is two and one-half hours from right now. I feel like I'm living through the opening sequence of the movie, "Capricorn One." The astronauts are departing for the mission to Mars and the PR guy for NASA is on the intercom telling the press what the crew was doing. "The astronauts were awakened at 3:45am, allowed a final shower, and at 4:30am were fed a breakfast of steak, eggs and orange juice."

Except my morning announcement would be something like this: "Granimore was awakened at 9:30am by the ringing of the phone. After a visit to the toilet, he logged on to the internet to check his email and see if anybody commented on his blog. Following that, he turned on the TV to watch "King of the Hill" on FX while cooking and eating a frozen pizza. Afterwards, he returned to the computer to visit the National Board website and review some of their sample questions. He then checked into his blog to make this post."
