Easter, Game Night, Girly stuff
Easter went well. We spent ours with my mom and dad this year, so it was a very secular affair as neither my parents nor I believe in a god. We went up to my mom's apartment in Skokie. The weather was beautiful, so after dinner we went for a very long walk. Mom's complex is across the street from a huge forest preserve. Lots of trails. We followed ( Read more... ) -
Did You Know There Are Physical Therapists for Vaginas?
Disclaimer: This is going to contain quite a bit of information about my sex life, but I feel that this is an issue that women need to be aware of. Thus, I have discussed this with my husband and he agrees that getting the word out is important. So this is a public post that will hopefully be read by more people ( Read more... ) -
Small Victories
In researching Dog Separation Anxiety, one of the things I have read across the board is to get the dog used to being in rooms without you. So get the dog to do a sit stay in the living room and then you go around the corner for a few minutes. Then come back. If a dog can be away from you while you're home, he'll be more comfortable when you're not ( Read more... ) -
Destruction
Shadow is the most perfectly behaved dog when we are home. He sits at our feet and sleeps, chews on a toy, or looks out the window.
Our first day with him, we put him in the kitchen with a gate up. This is how my family has always locked up new dogs when we leave the house. It's how Pat's family has always locked of new dogs when they leave the ( Read more... ) -
For the Love of a Dog
Pat and I attended an Adoption Day at the Lombard Vet Hospital today. The head vet at LVH also runs the DuPage County Animal Control. They had seven cats, five dogs, a rabbit, and a gerbil. The cats came in first... and sat in cages while the majority of us waited eagerly for the dogs.

Yargh
I see the amount of homework I have to do. I know that I have to get it done now. Do I do it? No.
In other news, I wish I were Mary Poppins. It would make cleaning the apartment so much easier. -
Year-Round Schooling
When I was in second grade, we were asked what our biggest wish would be. Most kid wished for ponies or whatever big fad was out. I wished for year round school. This was in second grade! As elementary school continued, I still wanted year round school. School was fun. I learned stuff. I didn't have many friends, but I learned stuff. Besides, I got ( Read more... ) -
Applications Galore
Today was a boring Saturday. I spent the morning filling out scholarship applications. I took a break to go grocery shopping and got away with spending only 20 bucks! I spent the afternoon working on my ITPS H requirement which was really really boring. The fire alarms in my building went off, but I didn't evacuate. It took twenty minutes for ( Read more... ) -
Nerdiness
I am a nerd. This isn't surprising news. However, certain aspects of my nerdiness stay dormant for years only to pop out periodically. For example, within the last week, I've been on a Star Wars kick. I don't have the movies down here at school, so I did some searching. All six movies are on YouTube. Therefore, I am watching one a night. I just ( Read more... ) -
Spring Break
I totally should be taking a shower and getting ready for geography, but I have an hour and a halfish. Besides, I never got around to telling you all about spring break!
I guess break starts Sunday after the MVC tournament. Not that Sunday was a particularly exciting night. I did laundry, packed most of my tings, and watched Across the Universe ( Read more... )
