At 10:00 I have a midterm exam. At 14:00 I have a dentist appointment. He will try to talk me into pulling my wisdome teeth, as usual, and as usual I will try to wiggle my way out. This time, however, it won't be so easy because I suspect I have a cavity in one of my wisdom teeth. So. This stinks. Somewhere in between I will have to stop by ( Read more... )

I'm starting to sweat the final on one of the courses I am taking and I'm only in my third week of classes. It is a required course in the history of psychology. This translates into an exhausting list of philosophers beginning with the early Greeks. The more I think about it, the more I worry about ruining my beautiful GPA of which I am so ( Read more... )

Mom: Can you take a look at my glasses? The lens fell off and the little screw is really hard to get back in. It's so small ( Read more... )

Saturday we went to a folk festival and spent most of the afternoon sipping soy lattes (and later beer), talking with friends, and basically relaxing. Later we decided to go home, let Corcodel out, then pick a movie and meet our friends again, probably at the theater. Of course, as soon as we reached our car, Ionel realized he had lost the car ( Read more... )

Saturday I will sigh a sigh of relief as I put one more school term behind me. I have exams this week and a few assignments to turn in, then it's vacation time for two whole weeks!!! My mom is coming back from Ohio to visit for the first time since she moved there this June. It's funny... I spent my last break from school with my mother in law ( ( Read more... )

As Ionel is entertaining a possible opportunity in California, I find myself obsessing over earthquakes and my fear of flying (which would be put to the test more and more often should something come of this and we move). Gah... What's wrong with me? Since when do I worry about earthquakes for crying out loud!?!

We just caught the last part of The Inner Tour on the Sundance channel. I'd like to either get it on DVD or find out when Sundance plans on showing it again so we can see the whole thing. What I saw of it was very touching. I'm still sniffling about it. Definitely worth a look by anyone interested in the Israeli/Palestinian issues. Too often ( Read more... )

we were sifting through the local TV stations and came upon this. Our cable company lists whatever TV show is supposed to be on at the bottom of the screen regardless of program interruptions. We just had to take a picture! :o)

I've been doing web design and maintenance work a couple of days per week at a local family owned business for the past three years. The owner, who will turn 40 next week, inherited the business from his father. The latter is a sweet, adorable 80-something year old man who shuffles when he walks, talks softly and is hard of hearing. I want to ( Read more... )

but somebody who shall remain nameless and who doesn't like to carry lots of keys around, and who has a habit of removing the car keys from the keychains because of this, took both sets of car keys to work with him. So, I'll go in tomorrow instead. Got showered, dressed, and went out to my car only to gawk stupidly at my keys while my brain was ( Read more... )
