Things that have suffered from me going to school

My food porn habit. I really really miss food porn. Wanna see what I’ve been missing?

Sleep.

Reading for pleasure.

What is next, you say, after you take two more tests and finish a five page paper for psychology?

One, perhaps two root canals.

A back packing trip.

Next semester:

Intermediate Algebra

Child & Adolescent Development

Introduction to Humanities 1

Human Anatomy & Physiology 1

Human Anatomy & Physiology 1 Lab

We’d also like to try adding a baby into the mix, but thus far luck has not favored us.  Luck is supposedly a fickle bitch, and I agree. Get on it already, luck! I mean, I’m doing MY part!

And Emma, My little baby Emma is HUGE!  And going into first grade. WTF? How can my teeny tiny be going into first grade?

Note to self

Wait until the class is over to fill out class feedback.

Because you will bust ass, complete assignments on time, having taken your professor’s word that NO LATE WORK ACCEPTED. So you will turn in every assignment in on time,  including finishing writing a paper instead of going to a wedding reception, and you will turn said paper in on time.  And then your professor will send out an email saying “Oh, by the way, everybody who hasn’t sent their papers in, you need to remember to do that.”

And you will be pissed, because are we all not adults? Can we NOT turn our work in on time? Why have a “no late work accepted policy” if  you won’t stick by it? You might just feel like saying something to said professor in the form of an anonymous survey.  But it’s too late, since you already did it.

Omg. The optimism got to me. Now singing fireflies. Shoot me.

Celebrity crush

I am loving me some Leonardo Dicaprio.  Anybody else DYING to see Inception?

Maybe after I finish school and have some free time, eh?

I have a story to tell you, a near death adventure! (True! MY DEATH!)

It will have to wait too.

Stupid College!

The thought rattling around in my brain

I have not been Mormon for years, but in all that time it never occurred to me to ask them to remove my name from their lists.  It did not matter much, since no one ever came looking for me, and I liked it that way.

But then  I started thinking about it.  It is one more name on their list that they can count.  And that bothers me.  I know plenty of good, righteous people in the L.D.S. Church, but for the most part all I see is hypocrisy and cultist behavior

So I am thinking, as a treat to myself, after I finish my last final and have my root canals, I will write that letter that I should have written years ago.

I understand it can be quite the lengthy process and a highly frustrating one as well.  Is anyone curious about it?  Would you like me to detail it? I probably will anyway. You know how I love to share.

Shall we see if they rally around, trying to bring their lost sheep into the fold? I do not think they will either.

All I can say is, THANK GOD I never had Emma registered in any way in that church, since I would have to do a separate letter for her too.

A penny was sitting on my car seat in the sun. I sat on it and burned my ass. #Embarrasinginjuriesftw
