Update! Whooo!

Oh yeah, and I actually updated the diary with an entry about everything that happened at the dentist. It's long, but read it all the way through.

Also, still no pain, and still pretty teeth and smile. Hurray!

School IS making me smarter.... right? Should I get a refund?

Okay, first I was all loving Gigli, now I have to say that Stepford Wives has just cracked me right up. LOVE it. And I wasn't real impressed by Garden State. There were moments that I really liked, and any scene with Natalie Portman in it was wonderful, but overall... not thrilled.

Stepford Wives though, that was hilarious.

My Jeep is not an Ark and it will not fit all these animals in it

I can't believe this rain!!! It's probably the worst storm I've seen here since last New Year's day - now that was one incredible storm. But I wish it would stop, only because I hate driving in it and I still have to go to work tomorrow and then pick up the kids and go to Scott's house for New Years.

New Years! Our third one together! Can you believe it? Two years together and not one argument that I can think of. Not one fight.

*sighhhh...* He's perfect!

My tooth, 'tis gone

So I had to have the tooth pulled, and they put a bridge in. Not that fun. Didn't hurt though. Lots of drugs. And since I hadn't eaten all day (well, ya know, I had a broken tooth, and then went to my 1:30pm appointment and didn't get my tooth worked on until 5 frikkin PM!!!!!) so right as soon as they pulled the tooth I went into shock and they all freaked out and started fanning me and yelling "DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES! DON'T CLOSE THEM! NO! OPEN YOUR EYES!!!" and "CALL THE DOCTOR! NOW! QUICK!"

Anyway, all better now. Lotsa drugs. Can't talk yet. Swollen face. But no pain.

Insert several swear words here

Well Gross! and Shit! and Oh Man Oh Man!

I just split my tooth right in half!!! It's fourth one back (counting from a front tooth) and it's split exactly in half. It looks like I chipped part of it off, and then the whole thing split. Arrgh. Now I have to go to the dentist. And I'm afraid to move my tongue.

This sucks. Doesn't hurt though. Yet.

So relaxing to read for enjoyment

In fact, I'm currently reading:

Mama, by Terry MacMillan.

Now, how can you lose when the book's opening line is this:

"Mildred hid the ax beneath the mattress of the cot in the dining room..."

Annnnnnd...

I'm DONE! DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NO MORE SCHOOL!

Well, at least for two weeks, haha.

I'm so happy I don't even want to look at this computer right now.

I think I'll go read a book. A good ole, non-required-reading book.

You will have to wait another day for me to write my diary entry about threatening to Spike's friends that I will "stick (them) like a pig" if they touch my daughter. heh.

For some reason they are now terrified of me. Don't know why. May have had to do with the "bloody" butcher knife I was waving at them. heee.

Anyway, Good Bye for one more day. Then I will be back in full force.

BZZZZZZZZ

Omigod I think I'm done. I'm not sure. But I'm going to step away from the computer for a couple hours and come back later to proof it. Must upload by midnight.

Yep, I may be done. Gawd I need a nap. A month-long nap.

Never never ever ever EVER put off doing your research paper

In eight hours and 9 minutes I will be absolutely DONE with this research paper, finished or not. That is the only thing keeping me going at this point.

Six pages down. Four more to go.

Santa's coming to my house!!!

You Were Nice This Year!
You're an uber-perfect person who is on the top of Santa's list. You probably didn't even *think* any naughty thoughts this year. Unless you're a Mormon, you've probably been a little too good. Is that extra candy cane worth being a sweetheart for 365 days straight?

The Finish Line....

I totally bombed my American Literature final so I am probably guaranteed a B in that class. Next time I'll take the research paper option which at least give me a chance to proof and redo my work instead of pulling 2 essays of crap out of my ass in 2 hours. BLAH.

Yesterday I had my Oceanography exam, and I really thought I would get at least a 90 on it, I knew my stuff SO WELL. I only needed about an 80 to get an A in the class. I started the exam and knew all the answers... until halfway through when suddenly I didn't know CRAP about the questions. Then I started getting way bummed because I was so sure I was getting an A in the class, and I really needed the A to get on the Dean's List, so finally I finished and went Christmas shopping.

Then I realized I was one of THOSE students, you know the ones, the students you want to slap because they're crying that they got an A-. Well I finally understood what they were going through. I know I should be super-happy if I get a B in my classes, a B is a good grade... but what upset me was that I studied SO HARD. I worked so hard and was sure I was going to do well. THAT's why it's disappointing.

Anyway, the teacher promised to post grades by Saturday night... and he did... and my score was a 78.

Which got me...

An A-!!!!!

Believe me, an A- is A-Okay with me. An A is an A, haha. Also, I got the very highest score in the whole class, and the second highest grade for the whole semester. Only 2 A's in the whole class! WHOOOOOO!!!

Okay, and now I've been up since 5:30am so I can finish a 10 page research paper that's due this evening.

No more fooling around.

I need one of those Lazy-Grrl Chairs

They certainly don't make these chairs very comfortable. I guess they don't want you hanging around. I have at least 2 hours to go, I wish I could get a little more comfy, but oh well.

NOT at work

But here at school of course, haha.

I'm in the library waiting for my final to start at 3pm. It's noon right now.

I went to Traffic Court this morning and got my fine reduced by over $200, WHOOOO! Remember that fine? From long ago when I had to renew my license and get insurance, blah de blah? Well today was the court date, and I'm getting over $200 back which of course will go directly back to Scott because he lent me the money in the first place.

My library computer pass says "NO ONLINE CHATTING AND COMPUTER GAMES". Does that mean I'm allowed to post here?

I'm a rebel.

Jen was robbed. ROBBED I say. I know she wasn't liked by everyone, but I loved her from the point of the Stacy-Scapegoat fiasco on. Kelly? Kelly just sat back and let people walk all over him!!!!!!!

The Hair. My gosh. The Hair never really bothered me before.... but tonight it bugged me to no end. An orange comb-over on top of white hair??? Come ON Mr.Trump.

Amy - wrong fashion choice.

Troy - Still love ya!

I think that's about it. Still love Carolyn. Still love the show. Just hated the contestants this year.

Except for Jen.

Who was robbed.

Almost... There...

Critical Thinking teacher says he could give me an A right now...
Got a B+ on my last Am Lit essay...
which means Friday's final will determine A or B...
Oceanography final Saturday, still studying for an A...
Just received my History Final, got an A-...
but I don't think it's quite enough for an A, maybe... but maybe not...

At any rate, Final Friday, Final Saturday, Research Report Sunday and then

I'm

DONE.

GAWD, will it ever END.

Posted by Pischina at 7:33 PM | Comments (0)

Maybe...

I would post more now but unfortunately Oceanography is not over yet so I need to go study.

Oh... and my teacher re-figured our grades and I now have an A!! That means... it's possible I'll have straight A's this semester. I had a pretty firm B last week in Oceanography, now I have a very firm A. If I get that A in History, and do well in American Lit... We'll see...

Off I go to study.

My Lovin's are back!

Now leave me some! hahaha...
Thanks to Megs my broken comments are all better, but there's a 5 day limit on each post to protect me from those evil spammers... that means you have to check my posts more often if you want to comment, haha.

Okay, it also means that I better update more than once ever 5 days, eh? Okay! Deal!

Posted by Pischina at 10:17 AM | Comments (0)

Blogger friends

I was stuck in some pretty bad traffic on the way home today so I decided to call some fellow bloggers.

First I called Megs, but I got her voicemail so I left her a message, then I called Mocksie and had a very nice conversation with her even though she's sick right now,
:-(
so then I called Itsy, but maybe she changed her phone number, or maybe she speaks french, but I got a voicemail with a very fast french talker who didn't sound all that Itsy-like, so I hung up.

Then I was running out of time. So no more phone calls, hee.

School's almost over.

Posted by Pischina at 9:39 PM

Oops

I just realized I know even know where my digital camera is.
Heh.
