Cheers and Jeers

Cheers:

1. Emerson University made the wise decision of accepting Hannah into its Fall 2006 class. Congrats Hannah!!!

2. Talia officially applied to grad school to pursue her Masters of Library Sciences. Look for her at a library near you.

3. Chris proposed to Talia, promising to make an honest woman out of her yet! They'll wed in March 2007. A good month in my book!

4. Target finally freed Ethan from the chains that bound him. One might consider this a jeer, but in the end, we all know Ethan needed Target to break up with him to push him to pursue bigger and better things.

5. Andy got me a new laptop :) I looooooooooooove him.

Jeers:

1. Boston gets to reclaim Andy as one of his own. Although I already live 1000 miles away so what's an extra 800, I can't help but wonder, who will pick me up at the airport next time I come home at 1 a.m.???

2. Mike Davis announced his resignation as coach of the Indiana University basketball team. I consider this a jeer less because I feel strongly that Mike deserves the job and more because the decision seemingly validates the population of Indiana fans who launched a tasteless campaign to oust the coach that involved racial slurs and "black" outs. The entire situation makes me ashamed to call myself a Hoosier.

3. After 8 years of dedicated services, my mom's company terminated her employment several weeks ago. The real kick to the crotch is that they chose to hire her replacement weeks before and have my mom unwittingly train her. Calling back to notify the company of an error on her W-2, she found out that her replacement had a heart attack caused by job-related stress. I feel awful for the lady, happy my mom escaped when she did, and satisfaction that the company just got knocked into shit creek because someone forgot to hold their T-grip. (SKEET SKEET)

4. It's cold. Yes, Texas cold, but cold none the less. I turned on my furnace (gasp!) for the first time this year.
