Is it too soon...

JSU friends:

JSU friends:  I know we've been told for ~the last 3 semesters that we'll be switching from Blackboard to Canvas, but it looks like it's actually happening this time. I didn't get an email or anything. I'm just one of those weirdos who logs into Blackboard mid-summer for no apparent reason. 😂😂😂

I literally have nightmares...

I started playing Wordscapes a few weeks ago.

I started playing Wordscapes a few weeks ago. Combinatorics followed me because this is how I think about it:

If I have 6 unique letters, there are 6! = 720 ways to arrange those 6 letters. If I have 6 letters with some repetition, such as in the word "banana" then there are 6!/3!*2!*1! = 120 ways to arrange those letters. That's because there is no difference between "a" and "a" and "a", so we clip them by dividing 3! out of 6!, etc. for all repeated letters.

I was also pretty stunned to see that the word "Echelon" was one of the words on the board. I've only ever heard that in the context of a math class (Row Echelon form from Linear Algebra), so it's weird to me they would expect someone to figure that out. Most of the words were pretty common.

Anyway, I'm a nerd. 😂🤓

I figured out what Nom and Teyla were meeting about yesterday.

Today, Rose got her rabies shot and her spay scheduled.

Today, Rose got her rabies shot and her spay scheduled. After that, we took the kids to the park. I don't know about them, but I'm tired!

Time to run! Tongues out, ears flapping in the wind!

Trying to photograph puppies is the most fun. 😂😂😂

I don't know why this photo is so dark, but I thought it was a really pretty picture of Rose.

Went to feed the animals and...

Went to feed the animals. Found Nom and Teyla (tortoise and bearded dragon) chilling together. Nom bulldozed a hole in Teyla's enclosure and set her free. I, uh... don't even know what I'm going to do about that. It's the animal room so it should be safe for them. Maybe it's ok? I'm glad I'm not in school yet so that I can observe. 😂 Goofy kids. I love my babies. 😍

I'll get a photo soon. Not until I clean, though. Nom has been rampaging. 😂😂😂 Gotta love life with a tortoise.
