wrong side of the bed
i woke up this morning feeling really cruddy. it's not like i'm physically sick or anything, but mentally i feel blah. my shoulders are really sore from my workout yesterday. i tried to push myself by running a mile on the street and then doing weight training. i also increased the weight i was lifting, as well. it's possible my over-head ( Read more... ) -
the clumsy strikes again
last night, while walking from the office to our bedroom to go to bed, i jammed my baby toe into the leg of the ottoman in our living room. i had never felt a pain like that before. i thought it was your run-of-the-mill stubbed toe, but it hurt so much more. it even was sensitive to the touch for at least another 30 minutes and finally subsided ( Read more... ) -
i love how...

grades
i'm not sure why, but i'm really anxious to see my grades for this semester. the professor for my children's programming class actually uses the online gradebook and has been really diligent about making sure our grades are updated. so far she's finished inputting all the grades for each assignment and even asked us to review to make sure ( Read more... ) -
*whew*
well, i'm officially finished with this semester and thus my first year of the MLIS program. honestly, the hardest class was my children's programming class. each and every assignment required, not only research skills, but a TON of creativity. you really had to think like a 3 year-old or an 8 year-old. what would i like? would i sit through ( Read more... ) -
the end is nigh
last night i submitted the last actual assignment for my library management class. it was actually comforting to hear that my other team members were having trouble with this assignment, too. one of my team members sent out a cry for help and i tried to help as best i could. i googled "library operational plan" and found a PDF from a school ( Read more... ) -
