Ah, a little break....


Well hallelujah, I am finally done with Spring Quarter. That was a tough one for some reason, man, really really tough. I'm trying to figure out why; I mean, it's not like I had SUPER hard classes; stats was a relative breeze, German was complicated and a little frustrating but not hard like science-hard. I think part of it was the fact that it was my last 3/4 time quarter at NSCC. And maybe some of it is frustration with the fact that I SHOULD have been done this quarter; if I had passed Calculus, I would have my AS

right now. Oh well, I need to stop rehashing THAT one and just DEAL with it. Anyway as you can see from these pix, I devoted my Sunday to my deck. I am getting things arranged into an aesthetically pleasing form, and I swept and threw things away and pulled out cobwebs and it's just NICE out there. A place I actually WANT to sit and enjoy, listen to music, read a book in.


Anyway, that's my story for now. I am going to go back to work now. Someone is lurking and demanding my attention. Sigh.

Another quarter draws to an end


So here it is, 8 days til the end of Spring quarter, and I am completely overwhelmed. I have so much work to do that I don't know how I will POSSIBLY get it done...only that I must, so I shall soldier on. No fun outdoor activities for ME this weekend. :(

BUT. I have a tune-up (therapy appointment) on Monday, and a massage on the 22nd. So those are things to look forward to. Plus I rejoined the Mountaineers, meaning I can lead hikes or sign up for anything I want to this summer. AND after a minor glitch (in which they told me I owed $735, but it wound up I had a $109 credit) I got re-instated at Miekos and can now work on whittling away some of this fat ass. Hooray for me! Now if I can just figure out my i-Pod clip I'll be in good shape.

On a down-but-somewhat-plus note, it looks like Calculus is already closed for Summer, but I will attend the first couple of classes anyway and see if I can get in as a State Employee. It would really suck to have to wait, or have to take it in fall with the same crappy teacher. The plus side of it is that if I can't get in, or find another class, I will have my first free summer in many, many years, and that would just be neat. I could work full-time, earn a good wage, pay more shit off...

So on that note, I will go ahead and try to pass my freakin' classes. Wish me luck, say a prayer for me, and I'll see you in 9 days!!!!
