Today was pretty good. 🙂

Today was pretty good.  🙂

This morning I got some of the sweetest kitty kisses from Calypso before work.  She is SUPER LOVEY sometimes.  She was the foster baby that got the most attention because she's so pretty, but she's also sweet.  I'm pretty sure that she's got a certain someone wrapped around her paw, (as do the other 3, actually), so we'll just have to finish the spays and neuter to make their forever homes final.  🙂

Checked out the STARS guide for Gadsden State / JSU today and I might be disappointed.  I needed the Algebra classes and will also need Trig to get to Calculus, but I don't think the Algebras or Trig are on the guide.  It appears that I need 26 credits to get a General Studies diploma from GSCC, but that I have a good bit more to go than that to be ready to transfer to JSU.  Also, I found out that Calculus isn't offered year-round, so I'll have to take those whenever I can.  I was hoping to not spend 4 years at Gadsden, but now I'm not so sure I won't.  I don't know.  I'll officially meet with my adviser in a couple of weeks and I'll ask a billion questions.  Still trying to figure it all out, I guess.

Anyway.  After that I went to trivia at Mellow Mushroom again.  Found out that I am ok with the tofu they put in their salads, so that's cool.  We also won trivia again - first place, second week in a row.  Both this time and last time we had a score in the triple digits.  Last week when they announced that he said it was the first time in a while anyone had scored that high, so we're super smart.  And by "we're" I mean everyone else.  I sit there like a lump and eat food.  LOL  Got to meet some new people IRL that I'm friends with on the Internet, so that was super cool.  🙂

It's almost 11 and I'm about ready to pass out.  I think I'm gonna tuck all the animals in, take a shower, and then call it a night.  I hope that everyone else has had an acceptable Wednesday, too.  ❤

Just finished my test review.

Just finished my test review.  Woohoo!  I don't feel too bad about it.  The first run-through is always the hardest.  Gotta get all the problems worked with the help of notes, so it's a lot of looking back at things to make sure I've done them correctly.

The test is Monday, so if I do the practice test a few more times before then I should be all set.  Phew!  🙂

I would say I'm heading to bed, but me and the kid are running around the corner to McDonald's first.  24/7 breakfast?  Yes, please.

And before you think I'm a bad mom (because YES, it's a school night), he was asleep on the couch when I got home from work.  He woke up for maybe 30 minutes and went back to bed.  I don't know why he was so tired today (because he slept like a normal human yesterday), but we're taking advantage of it.  😛

Goodnight, friends!  🙂❤

Studying, going through my notes...

Studying, going through my notes. Saw this and thought "What in the hell was happening in my head that day?!" "If they is squared..." 😂

I might need to go to bed. 😛


I'm home. Glad to be here.

I'm home.  Glad to be here.  Was freezing my ass off all day.  The dampness makes it worse.  Needless to say I've been very uncomfortable.  I think it's about time to bust out with the snow pants 24/7.  Counting down the days until I see my new Rheumy.  I have less than a month to go now!

Stopped in and saw my adviser today.  We couldn't plan my schedule because they are still working on classes for next semester, but I did find out that I have to take Trig before Calculus.  Trig sounds scary, but not as scary as Calculus.  So, I feel better about that progression, on the bright side.

On the dark side (Is that a thing people say?  I don't think I've ever heard that.  Oh well.  Going with it.), counting Trig I have FOUR more maths to take, which is ok.  But it means that I won't be ready to transfer by Fall 2017 unless I take one of the Calculus classes over a summer semester.  I'm not even sure they are offered over the summer.  But even if they are since summer is shorter, it's harder.  Shaun recommends not doing that.

I don't have to make any decisions right now, but I need to be mulling it over in the back of my mind.

Anyway, I'm off.  I've got an Algebra test coming up, so I need to finish my homework and study.  The test is Monday so I've got time, but tomorrow is the last class before the test, so I need to make sure that if I have questions I can get them answered in the morning.

Later, peeps.  ❤

I've had a pretty good weekend.

I've had a pretty good weekend.  Did some housework, some studying.  Saw my parents, and ate their food.  It was nice.  🙂

Last night, though, my brain went weird.  🙁

Before I went to bed I started freaking out about how school was going to get harder.  I Googled (which, I know - it's always a bad idea if you're upset about something to Google it, but I did) about how hard it is to get a Computer Science degree.  And how hard Calculus is.  And then I was just there, in my bed, wondering if I was being stupid for thinking I can do it.  I'm still a bit shaken, but my thought process has kind of returned to where I was when I decided to go to school:  "Let's just do this and see how it goes."  LOL  I think I might be putting unnecessary pressure on myself because I have set a goal.  And to me, "goal" is just another word for "Some shit I'm gonna actually do."  But I really want to be ready to transfer to JSU by Fall Semester of 2017.  After looking at my Degree Works page with the help of the awesome Emily it doesn't seem un-attainable, but I'll have to keep busting my ass to do it.

So, after all that loveliness I dreamed that Bruce tried to eat Teyla - face first.  I stopped him, but I was rough with him and she was injured.  I hate that I only seem to remember dreams if they are bad.  😕  For the record this would be nearly impossible to have happen because I doubt that they even know of each others existence because they don't live in the same room, so it's not that I'm worried, but it made me super sad.  I really hate thinking about loved ones being hurt or eaten.  🙁

Anyway.  I'm about to eat something and get ready for bed.  Y'all wish me pleasant dreams.  Or no dreams.  I'll take either.  LOL  ❤

Ok. Chilled out. Ate some dinner.

Ok. Chilled out. Ate some dinner. And then Halloween Cap'n Crunch that turns your milk green for dessert. LOL

I did also paint my nails, but nothing post-worthy. They are not themed any kind of way. I just had some new polishes I hadn't tried and I wanted to try them. So, all of my nails are a different color. LOL They look fun, at least. 😃

Also... since I live under a rock I just now saw the video for "What Do You Mean" by Justin Bieber. I think I'm about to find someone to cut my hair and shamelessly request his new 'do. LOL

After 4 hours of me and the Man-Cub...

After 4 hours of me and the Man-Cub going hard on the cleaning the house looks actually NICE.  We're not as gross as it might sound - some of that was deep cleaning, which always takes time.  Got a lot of extra crap put away in the garage and we cleaned off the porch, too.  Also washed 1/6 of the dogs - the little stinky Booka.  Would love to wash Emma later, but she hates it and it really depends on how my energy holds out.  I'm kind of ready to get some dinner and call it quits for the day.

I have a feeling that I will sleep like a rock tonight!

Oh, Kitten Update:

Their energy is back - full throttle.  There is rarely a sneeze to be heard.  But beautiful Calypso and Adrian both have one red eye left.  It's much improved, but not gone.  I'm giving them a week to finish clearing up and then we'll head back to the vet if need be.  But they all seem to be feeling just fine, thank goodness.  🙂
