well.
finished my happie happie online driving course thing tonight.
only missed two out of twenty-five questions.
one, I hadn't really read all the answers and so missed the most appropriate one (translation: when it comes to right of way at an intersection without marked crosswalks, I chose the car that gets there first, completely ignoring that PEDESTRIAN was one of the possible answers)
I forget what the other one I got wrong was. *shrug*
what matters is that I passed and I'm done.
and so, the online driving course can now go to hell.
yes.
not so cool thing: my time to have the certificate of completion for passing the driving school thing is 45 days from citation. citation date? March 19th. which... cuts it too damned close, honestly. I procrastinated on this process. I mean, I paid my ticket in a decent enough time, but just... hadn't registered and taken the stupid driving test yet. and when do I look into the delivery details for the cert to reach the justice court?
uhm... last night.
I'd been under the WRONG impression that they sent something to the court electronically.
no.
they mail it.
and... considering their mailing option time frames, I'd have to pay at least $20 in rush shipping to get it there on time.
so, during my break at work today, I called the justice court to ask if they knew how soon after completing the course the thing would get mailed to them, because I needed to know if I was going to be shelling out only twenty, or if I needed to shell out more to get it there before the cutoff.
rather cool thing: the lady replied to my inquiry by extending my due date. (I replied by telling her I loved her) WOOT! so, I can spend a mere buck-fiddy for ground shipping, and won't have to worry about the cutoff time. she extended it by a MONTH.
and I've started to do this yoga class thing.
its free. its at trolley square. and of the times and days it happens, I'm going Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evening, then Saturday morning. Nick goes with me. (well, he went first. its more like, I go with him.)
so.. yea. megan is getting more-than-none exercise. I've gone three times thus far and plan on continuing to go. seems basically to be lots and lots and lots of breathing... and then a little bit of light exercise, followed by a little bit more breathing. works for me.
and the classes are SMALL. which is yet another plus for me.
and you wanna hear some good news? well, my bottom right wisdom tooth is evil. a small portion of it cut through the gums what... a couple weeks or a month ago or so.
no biggie d to me. however, yesterday after dinner, I noticed that my jaw hurt. the tooth isn't peeking any more out of the top of the gums... nope, instead I'm noticing a bulge forming on the outside of the jawline... letting me know that the tooth is working on growing in on the side. and uhm... there really isn't ROOM for it to grow in there.
I almost wish I were sixteen or something right now. well, just in reference to my wisdom tooth. if I were younger, the roots wouldn't have had as much time to grow in a get all... rooted.
I just... I'm pretty darned sure (and that's putting it lightly) that I'ma need to have this tooth pulled. and I'm not really looking forward to the immense PAIN that I'm expecting to go along with it. so uhm... anyone wanna trade me mouths for when I get it pulled? and for however long afterward until it stops being all swollen and painful and stuff? any takers? huh huh?
also... I haven't gone to a dentist since I left the Navy... so I'd say its waaay beyond time to make an appointment anyway. bah. just... don't wanna.
there's a small portion of me that's still hoping that it can just... grow in without any major problems and I won't need to get it pulled. yea. here's to hoping, huh? I'm also REALLY hoping I will NOT have to get the others pulled. EVER. I'd be fine with them being all dormant-like for the rest of my life, thankyouverymuch.
I was talking to my mom the other day and decided that I blame this whole wisdom tooth pain thing on her. because she didn't have them removed when I was sixteen. *nod* I told her, I figure, its been a long time since I've had something to blame on her, so why not this? its about time. *snork*
yes. and I'm looking forward to my weekend trip to the Antelope Valley in another two and a half weeks for Savannah's wedding.
I'm likely to see my mom, even if briefly, during that trip and... this actually comes across as good news to me. *shrug* it happens, you know? I'm looking forward to seeing my mom. (and I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that I actually already have a mother's day present to give to her... that's just ICING on the cake, yo.)
and of course I miss Sv. and it'll be nice to be at her wedding. take a moment... to be happy for her and all, you know? and just... try to keep my mind off the fact that I'm single, lonely, and have no problem with the idea of me being settled down and married right about now. meh... it'll... happen, right? in its own due time. own damn time, more time. because I'm not about to go running around scouting out prospective hubbies. and I'm not about to settle for less than... less than whatever. I'm not desperate, that's for sure. just... a bit disheartened about it all.
more than that, though, I'm looking forward to Anime Expo. ever since we got our plane tickets, its been strong on my mind. I can hardly wait. at least I'm not all annoyed with the waiting... just enjoying as it steadily gets closer and closer to July. Nick and I will both be in the cosplay department this time.
I'm still waiting to find out if Kendra will be able to staff or not. if not, she can be my comp ticket. I should know by mid-May, if I remember correctly. (Ami is waiting on a reply from a specific potential staffer, and I think that's around when she said she'd consider someone else if he didn't say yes by then) I'll keep chall updated when I get more info... especially since, if Kendra DOES staff, then I'll have a comp ticket to give to someone else.
and I'm still working on my plushie collection. grundos these days.
recently, I got two in the mail together... a purple one, and a dark blue one with wings.
I bought the purple one for myself, and the Daveish got me the other.
it made my day. Daveish is awesome. slightly more awesome than grundo plushies... except when I'm in my room and looking right at the grundos... at that moment, NOTHING is more awesome than the grundos. at least, not that I'm aware of. *nod*
yesterday my split grundo came in the mail (half orange, half lavender. wholly cute) and today my starry grundo showed up. yes, I know I already have a starry grundo. my first grundo, even. the one that Nick got me - Mr. Toof. (and no, this new one can never replace Mr. Toof. its just not possible.) I will share my new plushies' names when they let me know what they are. because its important, of course!
uhm... I guess that's it for now. lemme know if there's anything else you want an update on, k?
