Today was actually pretty decent aside from an insanely sore throat (I feel fine otherwise, but my throat is really scratchy and sore, especially around the nasal passages. Not sure if this means I'm getting sick, allergies are making themselves unpleasantly known, or if it's just some sort of bug/virus/whatever that goes for the throat. It's no fun however you put it) and killing my brain with working on statistics for three hours straight (still haven't finished). I ended up getting a call from Mom in the middle of my Biogeography class (I had it on silent, so it didn't disturb the class), and when i called her back after class she told me that she was literally on her way to Stevens Point for some sort of Wellness meeting courtesy of the YMCA. She had no clue where the meeting was taking place because it was in the newly renamed and remodeled Dreyfus University Center. Mom hasn't been on campus since it reopened, so she as kinda "Maren, where do I go! I'm already three hours late for this meeting!" Of course, since by this time the meeting was on break for lunch, she decided to just hit the afternoon half and have lunch with me instead. So she got me lunch and we spent an hour catching up, which was really really nice because despite trying to stay in touch with phone calls and going home once every few weeks, I actually haven't had a nice sit-down meal with just me and my mom since... before school started last September, actually. Free food and Mom Time = always a good thing. At least with my mom. And again I say that my parents rock.
After lunch, spent another two and a half hours trying to figure out my statistics and gave myself a headache in the process. That wasn't fun, and I'm still not finished with the assignment. At this point, it's just not going to get done because the teacher wasn't in his office all day so I couldn't get any help and it's due tomorrow at 12 pm, so yeah. I figure 50% is better than 0.
Also taught swim lessons tonight. Due to some mix up with the front desk, I ended up having 6 kids in two of my classes, which was... slightly chaotic, but we managed, and it's nothing I haven't done before. At some point during the night jets started pumping insanely cold water into the pool, so it was a bit chilly for the last class, so that also kinda sucked.
So, yes. Over all, my day would've rather sucked, but the time with my mom totally turned everything into a more positive light. More proof to the fact that Mommy can almost always make everything better. ;)
