I'm trying to be better about keeping up with doctor's visits. I went to the dentist for the first time in 2 1/2 years by my best estimate (I was living at my mom's house at the time, around summer 2007).

I haven't written in awhile, but unfortunately I'm only writing because I'm really frustrated and preoccupied. I work at an externship site as part of my doctoral program at a community mental health center. I am supposed to see clients but I hardly ever do because I have only been assigned two, one keeps canceling, and the other is homeless with ( Read more... )

I don't even know what to add since last time I updated last month. This past weekend was good, I finished some midterms and went to happy hour with a couple people from school, then dinner with my parents. When I came home I discovered hulu.com and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia episodes. That show is so messed up and wrong, but so funny ( Read more... )
