I'm sitting here with a tort stuffed in my jacket. He's crashed out and I'm crashing out. I have been missing the kids since I've been getting up earlier. I feel like Santa Claus when I'm leaving them food and they are still asleep every morning. I might have to adjust some timers so they are more on my schedule.
I'm so tired so I'm heading to bed after this even though I've been planning to paint my nails for days. I guess I have to keep my priorities in order. Blegh.
Today was a long day. I had fun at class - but then I worked like 9 hours. Tomorrow I have work first and then I'll be in classes until 9 pm. So that will be another long day and Thursday will be the same. I also have an online class that I've barely looked at. It's only the first day of school and I already feel a little bit behind. 😕
More about school: I wasn't even the oldest person in my class. There was a guy in there who is 38 and he was doing the HVAC program or something like that. We had to stand up and introduce ourselves and the teacher said we had to say our name, where we went to high school, what our major was, and then it was optional to list any hobbies or interests. It was so funny - all of the younger students got up and mumbled the bare minimum and me and the other old dude elaborated a little bit.
I have a feeling that is because we're old and irrelevant - it's like "I don't give a shit - I'll talk!" 😂 I remember feeling self-conscious a lot in high school, but I guess at my age I'm over it. And thank goodness for that - it was no fun! But anyway - about the other dude: He likes motorcycles and has 5 kids. I can't remember his name, though. Also, I'm the only Computer Science major I've met so far.
Oh, I finally got my Primal Pit Paste today. I scrubbed my armpits and put some on when I got home and I gotta say: This is the first time in a very long time that I can recall my armpits not itching. Even when I went without deodorant (for the last few weeks - sorry if I'm gross, but I'm not gonna make myself miserable), I was itchy - just not as bad as I was WITH deodorant. I don't know why that is. But anyway. I'm using the light strength Vanilla Almond, although it wasn't my favorite smelling one and I hoped it would be. I also have the Lemonade flavor and the Primal Spice, both of which smell really nice. I kind of want to lick the Lemonade one, but I will try to refrain. They make an Orange Creamsicle that I couldn't even bring myself to buy. I really don't need to start eating deodorant at my age. 😂
Anyway, I guess I'm gonna get up from here and put my sweet sweet Tort Baby in a blanket and tuck him in. I can't even tell you how much I've considered just putting him in the bed with me and snuggling him all night. I haven't because I don't want him to fall off my bed. It might not be a big deal if it was a regular bed, but it's a loft so that's a pretty big distance for such a little guy. I just need to make a little tort gate for my ladder and we'd be set. LOL
Goodnight, everyone. Maybe I won't be too dead tired to tell you how things go tomorrow. ❤
