stuff
Summer classes at the University started this week. I am registered for one this session (until July) and one second session (until late August). Integrating Technology in Teaching and Curriculum and Instruction: Lesson Plans. Tech isn't too bad. The assignments include things like making a power point, creating a virtual field trip, etc. Stuff I have already done before. As a bonus, we have to do a term paper of 4 to 6 pages. Not bad, considering the history research paper I wrote was 25 pages. Still, since I care very little about technology in general, I am not excited about the paper.
Today is my goddaughter's first birthday. I wasn't able to visit, but I got to talk to her on the phone. She made all kinds of happy/adorable noises and I made a fool out of myself talking to her =P Her party is scheduled for Saturday, and all the relatives and friends are coming. Even her godfather, who lives almost 6 hours away is going to make an appearance. I am excited. I still need to buy her a gift. I am torn between getting her pretty kitty-kat pajamas and a really cool toy that is supposed to "stimulate learning."
The kittens that the stray cat gave birth to in my brother's room are growing. There are 6 of them, all various colors and sizes. They are really cute, especially the little black one named "Jack." We recently discovered that Jack is a girl, but I refused to let my mom change the name. We originally thought there were 5 boys and a girl, so both of the other boys have girls' names as well. And one of the boys had a girl's name. To keep things simple, we just switched the names of two of the kittens. So we have a girl named "Mai Lee" and a boy named Milo. And Tiglath Pileser's name has been changed to Tigger, so everyone is happy.
