Biology was fun.

Biology was fun. We had labs - which is always very interesting. I got home. All of the Ani-Pals are clean and fed. Did some light housework. Then promptly failed 2 times at making coffee. 😕 The third time must have been charmed. 😛

My sleep schedule is a wreck. I got 4 hours last night - if I'm lucky. That sucks because I have to drive to Gadsden tonight for class. I really hope I don't die. I have entirely too much to do to go down for the big nap just yet.

I have some Trig homework to finish so I'm gonna try my hand at that after a shower. If I can't make my brain work I'll take a nap. But I'd really love to feel secure in my math. We have a quiz tonight.

I hope your Monday is off to a better start!

Well I did some things this weekend...

Well I did some things this weekend, but of course it's never enough.  I feel like I'm going to be perpetually behind until this semester is over, which is, thankfully, less than a month away.

I'm having anxiety about some grades, which sucks, but that's why I've been studying basically all weekend.  I am hoping that if I can keep on top of things that it will pay off.  Unfortunately, I left Trig until today.  We're doing Trig equations and using the Quadratic Formula with them.  It's interesting and I like it, but there is SO MUCH to remember.  But, on the cool side I can solve basically any triangle as long as I know one leg and two angles.  I think that's pretty kick-ass!

I did take some time and clean up our hangout room yesterday.  My nail polish shelf looks AMAZING.  It took hours to organize my polish by color, but I think I'll like it better this way.  Fun Fact:  I have more blue polishes than any other color.  Green comes in second.  Purple comes in third.  Before yesterday I honestly had no idea!

With everything so clean and organized I'm fighting the urge to stop and do my nails, but I really need to get back to Trig and / or go to sleep.  I have Biology class in the morning.  I'm drowsy (despite having some coffee a little earlier), but I feel that it's a little bit ridiculously early to call it a night - especially considering how late I slept.  😕  I guess I'm gonna crack my book open and see if my brain wakes up or not.  I'm not in the mood to struggle.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend.  I do feel accomplished despite being behind on everything still so at least that is something.  🙂

I just had to send Shadow...

I just had to send Shadow to the other room to pet Scar. Poor guy has been calling him for an hour. I couldn't concentrate on my homework with all the meowing. LOL He's quiet now, so I guess he got what wanted!

Now if only this one could ever be satisfied that she's been petted enough! 😛

So we were watching the new SNL...

So we were watching the new SNL on Hulu last night and it had Peter Dinklage on it.  I was like "He's so small!"  Both Shaun and Shadow looked at me like I was crazy... They were like "YOU'RE small!"  I was like "But I'm wayyy taller than he is!"  And they were like, "No, you're really not."  So we Googled it.

Y'all... I got a whopping 3 and 3/4 of an inch on him.  I had no idea.  Apparently my perception of myself is wayyy skewed.  I've seen myself in photographs and thought I looked short, but I don't feel short!  I feel "normal" - because this is the height I've been for years and almost everyone has been taller than me for my whole life.

That is so weird and it messes with my head to think about it.  😂  I don't see myself next to people all the time from an outside perspective so I totally forget until someone reminds me (which happens a lot less than it did in high school) or until I see another person about my size and hear that I'm basically the same.

It's really interesting how perception of yourself works, isn't it?

I'm home from work.

I'm home from work.  I feel like crap.  Shadow sprained his ankle at the park yesterday evening so it's been a wonderful day of him missing school, me trying to get a doctor to see him (because I know nothing about these types of injuries and also because he had to have a doctor's note for being out of school), without straight up going to the ER, which is what Medicaid seems to expect you to do.  Blegh.  (Btw, he's ok - just supposed to take it easy this weekend.  Call Monday if it isn't un-swolled.)

I'm off to take (more) Ibuprofen and maybe clean up our hangout room.  I've, um, made a mess in there.  😂  I had help, though!  My lap table had a ton of nail polish and other stuff on it and Boo Bear knocked it over while scratching his butt like an Actual Bear.  So nail polish, stamping plates, etc, are all scattered about.  I still have a box of pretties that I got around my birthday last year that I never filed away, either.  So now I'm contemplating a change.  Help me.

All of my nail polishes are grouped by brand / bottle shape.  My brain works well with that system, but most people tend to group by color.  I'm CONSIDERING doing that, but I just don't know.  It seems like a legit system - especially when you're looking for a color and you might not remember what all brands or bottle shapes you have that contain that color, but it might actually drive me crazy.  I have no idea.  But whatever I do it'll probably have to stay that way for a while because I'm about 99% sure that I topped 1000 bottles as of my birthday last year and I just don't have time for that much re-re-arranging.  Don't judge me.  😂

Suggestions?

I failed every other day this week at exercising...

I failed every other day this week at exercising (besides Sunday!), but I walked today!  Super thank you to Carol for meeting me and walking the pups.  I needed that and I know Storm was super happy to see her again.  😃

I guess I'm off to do homework while I'm awake enough to think.  Maybe I'll sleep well tonight.  I sure hope so.  I've been struggling with that all week.  😕

Almost Friday!  Woohoo!  😃

I have felt like an absolute pile of turds ALL DAY.

I'm not done yet.

That is all.  🙁
