Stupid

The washing machine is dinging, the dryer is buzzing, the dog is running damn circles in the living room, the cat is banging her scratching toy against the bedroom door, my husband is at work for 36 hours (seriously), the dishwasher won't drain (still), my child keeps getting in trouble at school for not listening, running, etc., and my computer just froze up and I lost my homework I had been slaving over....seriously? Oooh, and the stupid weather won't make up it's mind. News flash...this is TEXAS, it doesn't snow 3 times in one winter here!! This is stupid. I want to pout like a 2 year old...or drink a lot of wine.

Dishwasher Blues

How is it that I wanted/needed (ok, technically we HAD one but hubs wouldn't let me use it because it was "old") a dishwasher soooo terribly bad...and now that I have one, I've grown to hate it! The stupid thing already caught minor fire, doesn't dry my dishes, leaves water spots, and now...it won't drain!! I'm not happy...and I think I'll just go back to hand washing...my dishes never had spots then!

Delurk for Haiti

**Trust when I say...I made a larger donation than $4...but thank you to all who stopped by and left a comment!**


Dear bloggy readers...all 3 of you...for every comment left on this post my family and I will donate $0.25 to Compassion International to help aid in relief for the people of Haiti. I chose Compassion because we sponsor a child through them who lives in India. Compassion does awesome things and I want to help them. I know $0.25 doesn't sound like much but it's what our family can do at this time and every cent will help. Please feel free to do this on your blog and then go to Brittany's blog and put your link up on her MckLinky so other people can find you!

Bathroom Stalls and Black Asphalt

We got new bathroom stalls at school...and the parking lot is being repaved with messy black asphalt...and tuition went up...coincidence? I most certainly think NOT!

Seriously UofH?! The bathroom stalls were fine...yes, they all needed new locks and hooks to hang your bags on...b/c it's a mother bitch trying to go to the restroom and balance your school bags and purse because the hook is broken and the door is swinging open because the lock is broken...BUT why not just replace those two simple, cheap, items?! Did we really need brand new black plastic with white polka dot stalls?! Which btw, slam shut when you walk out...which leads me to believe they too will be broken in no time! And seriously...asphalt?! You know what this means...even I know what this means...in no time all the previous pot holes will show back up and it'll look the way it did before. If you want to fix something, do it right...AND what ever happened to saving some money?! Why must you increase my damn tuition every semester? I'm a little tired of it, quite frankly. You'll be sad when I graduate in 11 months and 3 days (who's counting?!) and you don't receive several thousands of my hard earned (or not) money!!! I won't be sad dear UofH! And while you're "fixing" things...could to fix the damn heat in the Arbor Building?!

Internship...

Woo...long time...let me see if I still know how to do this! I know I said I'd be back after my self-inflicted horrendous Fall 2009 semester was over...but I did nothing, well, nothing productive, for two weeks! I just didn't feel like typing when I didn't have to...I knew my computer time would be back soon with Internship 1 starting. I totally got ripped off on my winter break. The university doesn't go back until January 19th but intern started...TODAY...and yesterday I had professional development alllllllllll day...and I have it again next Tuesday...and Friday. Needless to say...it was a way too short break. I spent the first half of it in El Paso visiting in-laws....yes, it was as exciting as you think.

My bff of 20 years had her baby girl on December 18 and my sister is scheduled for a c-section next week because baby C is breech and he's not moving into the correct position! Boo for that but yay for him coming!!

I think I'm going to abandon this blog...yes, more than before...and start keeping an internship blog....anonymously, of course...because I have kindergarten (btw, it was the grade I threatened to slit my throat if I go)...and we all know kids say the darnedest things! I want to remember the good times in intern...and hopefully if I blog the funny things I'll remember WHY I wanted to be a teacher in the first place. ;) I'll let my huuuuuuuuuuge group of blog readers know if/when I start this.

BTW...I graduate on December 18, 2010...not that I'm counting or anything!

Is That Light?

I'm starting to see some light at the end of this tunnel I call school...I'll be back when I reach it! 3 finals down, 4 to go!

Slacker...or Not

It has been brought to my attention that I am a blog slacker! But, do not be fooled...I have not been slacking in any other department of my life! School is INSANE...and I mean it! I would NEVER EVER EVER suggest to anyone, not even my biggest enemy, to take 21 hours in a single semester! I mean, I'm glad I'll be able to graduate next December because of it, but it's self torture. On top of all the school I have planned two baby showers, had C's drill team practice and games, A's girl scouts, Hubs work promotion and change of work schedule (you would think him changing work schedules wasn't a big deal...but it's huge since we plan our whole life around his 2 day work weeks), my pregnant BFF and sister, swine flu kids, and making sure all my ducks are in a row for internship next semester. Someone, please...send me a vacation!
