Let's start with the negative stuff first shall we?

1) Car - so it turns out that my car is in need of repairs again and this time it was a fuel injector that needed to be replaced. And I have to shell out another $309. POOP I SAY! But fortunately because I just had it done a while back I don't have to pay for the diagnostic testing. Although really I shouldn't have had to pay for the labor since they should have caught this last time and fixed everything at once. Oh well whatever. It's DONE... and hopefully so are my problems. Again it's good I just got paid.

2) Work - supposedly we're hiring soemone but when they'll start - no one knows. Dr's dragging his feet and his wife is letting him! She really needs this person to start ASAP (so do I but she especially needs the help) and yet nothing's happening. It's really frustrating. This is one thing I don't like about work - they're always procrastinating (I know I'm not one to talk) but in a business, that's not cool. Hence bills often don't get paid on time. >_<

3) School - Ok here's where I need your help (again). I'm already doing my paper on Streptococcus Pyogenes (Flesh-eating bacteria) and so I figured I'd do my Hot TOpic PResentation on it as well (and buy this guy -thanks Sharon for the link!) Unfortunately there's nothing really new and exciting about it recently. I mean there have been a few cases of it but nothing new in terms of real improvements or findings, etc and I need things to be current to work for the presentation. So uh... any ideas? I am also willing to take suggestions on other possible Hot Topics. Keep in mind that the big ones like MRSA, Salmonella, and what not are already taken. It has to be anything microbiology related that's been in the news within the past year or so.

4) Pain - So I managed to have a major leg cramp in my right calf last night. At first it wasn't bad but holy shit it HURT! And it just happened so fast! My leg is still sore today so I've been limping around and man... that was amazingly painful. Also, methinks I hurt my back... again ^^;

The Good Stuff
1) I get money back from the gov't! Not entirely sure how much because apparently there are issues with the whole stimulus thing with my account which is lame but I will get something.

2) Found a delicious Thai Restaurant in Elk Grove East of the 99 on Elk Grove blvd. It's called Thai Chili. Very small and not super fancy but utterly delicious. I've never seen a menu that large. They had a TON of food. And they had 2 pages of Vegetarian dishes! And even a Kids Menu. Price was decent and portions were good (Dan and I had leftovers) and service was good. The guy we think was the owner even suggested a dish out of the blue to change the taste up of our meal and as a result Dan now likes curry! Reminds me of when 2KThai was a family-run business and not superficial.

3) I'm "done" with my Death Note fanart! Ok so it's not really done and was a super rush job. Coloring sucked and the bg...well yeah... but I'm moving on because I don't have time to linger on it. Maybe before I print it I will make a few improvements but don't expect it. Check them out under the cut.
