I had some time last night in my schedule to post. Low and behold it's Wednesday WORD PLAY. As always, it's short and sweet! Today's word is DEPRIVATION. Oh, this word applies so well to my current situation. I couldn't pass it up.

Usage: I have been so delirious the past few days, thanks to the sleep deprivation that my studies are currently imposing on me.

To be honest I don't know what I am suffering from these days. Is it really sleep deprivation or is it a bit more (shhhh! - maybe sexual deprivation?). Can anybody out there help me?

So again, the "play" portion...any comment you leave must use the word deprivation in it. Your response can be about anything ~ the post, me (watch it!), something about you, something happening in your life. Knock yourself out thinking of something serious, humorous, or off-beat to comment about. Just have fun with it!

****Finals Update: Waiting for tomorrow, Thursday, to come. My last two classes are then and both are presentations. My portfolio prints will be picked up this morning. Keep your fingers crossed that they look half way decent. I have my model to construct today while pondering what I will say Thursday about my Seattle project. And then I am so over school...for at least one week.
