Made it to my Algebra class.

Made it to my Algebra class. Starts in 7 minutes. Eep!

I'm a Grumpasaurus today...

I'm a Grumpasaurus today. But at least my armpits smell nice.

Rambly post about my day:

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. ❤

English class is over.

English class is over. We mostly just talked and we were dismissed early. Easy day. 🙂

I'm not sure if I'm gonna do great in that class. I love to write, but drafts were never my thing. 😕

Well, that's ok. I will do my best. Now I'm heading to work!

Well, tomorrow is the big day...

Well, tomorrow is the big day:  My first day of real college. Everyone wish me luck!

I'm turning in early so I can wake up early and hopefully my brain will follow suit! 😃

Hanging with my Tort Baby...

Hanging with my Tort Baby before I get up and do some cleaning. He has decided that he likes to have his chin rubbed. I just love my little dude. ❤

I went and picked up my books today...

I went and picked up my books today. I was so excited that I had to open up my computer book and check it out. Well... I can tell you right now that I am gonna ACE that class!

It's about using Microsoft Office (most of which I am quite familiar with). First of all - I am an Excel Wizard. I use Word all the time. I hate Outlook, but I can work it. I have used Power Point before with no problems, but not recently. I am not super familiar with Access, but I know I've looked at it before. I was actually thinking about looking for the full program so I could make my own database for Polish All The Things. I have all of my PATT info in Excel, but I think a database would be more appropriate. (Yes, I'm a nerd.)

All in all I'm excited about the computer class. I'm glad that I know about most of what's in my book... I'm still a bit nervous about going back to school so I'm not going to complain if I have an easy class to start out on. I'm also excited that I'm gonna get experience with some things I haven't had a chance to play with yet. I might actually still look for Access and get started on my PATT database just so I can have a clue by the time we get to that. 😃 I guess other than that I need to Google One Note. I've heard that name, but I have NO CLUE what it is or does.

Anyway, I've had an exciting few days getting ready for school and I can't wait to go. My first class is Monday morning, but that's just English. I won't get to do computer stuff until Tuesday night. It seems so far away! 😃😃😃😃😃
