My black slacks! My aunt made me clean my room today (more like just clear a path so I don't trip all over stuff) and they were in my little set of drawers I got from Walmart. I hate Walmart. I found a strategy, go on Halloween. I went to the one that I absolutely HATED in Houston. This Walmart is a 24 one and there are screaming kids in it constantly. C.O.N.S.T.A.N.T.L.Y. My last night in Houston I got off of work and went there to do some last-minute shopping for some crap I needed to move back to Tulsa. As soon as I walked in there and didn't trip over a wandering two year old it dawned on me, "Oh God, it's Halloween". When I finished getting all giddy I ran around and noticed people staring at me, staring. When I was half done I realized it was because I was in my work uniform and I looked like a big goober dressed like a flight attendant for Halloween.
Today I went and enrolled in school. Hopefully this time I actually go to class and do well. I talked to a guidance counselor and told her my problems from past attempts to go to school and she said that since I was paying for everything myself I may be more inclined to go to class, and to also get into some groups. If I make friends in my classes or make friends in some French club or something I may want to stick with it more. I hope I do better. Third time is the charm, so they say. OH, and I'm actually taking classes the way I want to. I got onto some "Fast Track" courses that are done in 4 weeks or 8 weeks instead of the regular 16. That sounds about right because about 10 weeks into school I usually get fed up and quit. AND some fun classes may help keep my attention.
