Hey all! Been a bit, sorry to not blog for awhile,hope you've been keeping yourselves out of trouble. I've been on summer vacation for two whole weeks now, and I'm just getting over the 'ahhh' of not working and into the 'I need to find something to do'. I have plenty to keep me busy: making Powerpoint slides for the Worldbuilding seminar I'm ( Read more... )

 Let's hope this week is a little smoother than last week, shall we?

*Hubby's home from the hospital, not really any more sure about what's wrong. The medicine they gave him in the hospital took away the nausea, but as soon as he was home it started coming back. They didn't prescribe the stuff he had in the hospital to take home either, which sounds ( Read more... )

So much has happened in the last week, and mostly I've been Twittering instead of blogging, so if you don't follow me on Twitter, you might miss some things. Since I have Tweetdeck, it's also just easier to update my Facebook status from my desktop than log on, and I'm all about the easy.

To recap:

*Boy started First Grade last week. Loves it. I like ( Read more... )

There's just all this ...stuff...going on.
*Taking my LAST UMUC final exam today.

*Need to catch up on reviews and crits. Still have a TBR pile that would choke a horse.
*Need to polish ( Read more... )

Squee! Book Fair week is going to be hectic, but tomorrow morning I have no classes until mid day, so I have all morning to take in their new book goodness ( Read more... )

I have today, tomorrow, the weekend, and Monday. I need to ( Read more... )

• Today is Ry's kindergarten registration. I'm torn how I feel about this. Is he REALLY old enough for kindergarten already? Time, she is swift and relentless
• My mid-semester essays for 17th and 18th century Brit Lit - 96! Professor is duly impressed by my mad essay writing skilz.

Yes, dear friends, the PINK computer has arrived, in all its PINK glory. The top is very, very PINK and has a sort of rubbery feel to it. It arrived Thursday afternoon, and I spent the rest of Thursday setting it up. Hooray for pre-loaded software! My printer network linked right up, my wireless card is super strong - it found FIVE local networks, ( Read more... )

Did you miss me? I've been buried under a pile of holiday wrapping paper, work, studying, and writing. Monday...I took the car to the inspection station. It failed because I didn't have a permit for my husband's blue light. Couldn't I just take it out and you pass me? No. No, you have to drive out of the inspection station, take the light out, THEN ( Read more... )

 Live is crazy. Cars, floating, Spanish, book stuff, Praxis test , enrollment stuff, Christmas. Hollywood. (so close...so very, very close...)
