anticipation....

you know how you sort of dread something that you know is wrong, but can't fix, but it has the potential to be life altering...and you just don't want to do it...(Come on, I know I'm not the only one out there who's done this - be honest

Glad that went ok for you. Always good to get another weight off of the back. :)

[montanamary]

Yes, it is. The dumb part is - I know I do it, I know it's usually worse than the results...but I can't seem to help it.

This has been hanging over my head for a few months now - I'm glad it's done!

Hi. I recently moved to Minot from California, so I did a search on people from Minot and your profile caught my eye because you're a Communication Disorders major. Is it with an emphasis on Sign Language?

Anyway, yes, random person saying hi!

[montanamary]

Hi there...I wouldn't say an emphasis on sign language. It is required to take a sign class which I've done, and I've signed with my daughter (baby sign) for years although sadly now not quite so much.

What brought you over from California?

[hellocupcakes]

I just noticed that your interests include speech pathology *smacks head*

When I was a Communication Disorders major we were required to take speech pathology courses so it makes sense that you had to take sign language. :-)

I just got married and my husband is stationed here. :\

Goodness, either I've been quite oblivious, or you didn't communicate how much this was hanging over your head. I'm glad you're out from under it though. I do think you'll be awesome when you're able to get out and practice with all this knowlege you're gaining.

In all honesty, it was probably a bit of both. I remember talking about it with you at Thanksgiving/Christmas time...but I also remember thinking that if I shouldn't dwell on it, because I'd want to just give up. There wasn't a whole lot I could do about it, I just had to deal...there's quite a bit of life that's like that I guess. Anyway, I couldn't change it, couldn't spare the attention to dwell on it too much, and talking about it would make it too real (if that makes any sense) so I internalized it...I just had to get tested before I had to register for the next set of classes - so I wouldn't waste any more time if I couldn't be in the SLP program. If I couldnt' be in the SLP program, I could just go home and finish my degree on line.

I don't think I realized how much it bothered me until it was time for the testing, and then discussing it afterward.
