In case I forgot

A trip to the hospital today for an injured family member reminds me that we don’t have forever. We are here for a fleeting moment and we waste time with everything we don’t do or say today in hopes of being able to do it ‘tomorrow’ or ‘later’.

Someone’s misdirected resentment reminds me that we can sometimes not know what we do to others. It also reminds me that deep down we are not the way people may think we are. Things can get really convoluted in relationships because how others see us is a result of perceptions filtered through their own experiences. Unfortunately those perceptions don’t usually match up. It is just too easy for us all to forget that.

Cute as hell photos remind me that there are so many wonderful things in the world.

A chance meeting today on the way to my parent’s house reminds me that things happen for a reason. The people that we need and miss usually show up eventually. The funny part about it? I was half tempted today to apologize to the fam and stay at home to relax. Thank heaven above that I get to celebrate his 15 years clean with him while he’s here in Seattle for a bit.

Coming close to an anxious and angry fit from being so tired that it seems as if just one more thing will cause the huge break reminds me that I need to seriously reevaluate this two job/school thing.

Some Things

~~Two movies that I absolutely adore and that you should see as well if you haven’t already:

Marie Antoinette (if for no other reason than to see the shoes!!)

Conversations With God

~~I’m totally supposed to be where I’m at professionally. I had a client tell me that they trust me today. It may seem insignificant to some but in that world it means a great deal.

~~As if we didn’t need reminding? He really is just trash with money. Oh wait…isn’t that what his album was called? Weird.

~~Quick…take a look before I upload more!

~~Best. Thing. Ever. Coach sends you hand written thank you notes when you make purchases there. Seriously.

Math can suck it

I only have a few days to either complete, or fail statistics.

Probably it wasn’t really setting myself up for success to take it online. I mean, who better than I to know what I’m like when it comes to math related things? Really.

It’s not even that I just don’t want to do it…that would be an easier problem to resolve.

I. Don’t. Get. It.

Pure and simple.

Maybe part of it is that I don’t really want to “get” statistics. I’m not going to use it. I don’t use it now. I’m not going to do psychological studies. I’m not going to need to be able to figure out the probability of how many tails results I’m going to get by tossing a *@#@ fair coin. I don’t care.

At this point I’m just going to have to make up some answers in hopes of getting partial credit at least and pray that being graded on a curve will save me in the end.

Gynouniversity and some other stuff

#I sincerely hope that Argosy  is not a Gynoversity. Heaven above, what a waste of $19,000, huh? There is nothing better than an article that takes an unfortunate situation and spins it into an all out epidemic that is sweeping the nation’s higher education institutions (and of course, is ‘victimizing’ male college students). So, yah…it sucks if someone is falsely accused of a crime, and sure, if it can be proven or it is admitted that someone lied and made the accusation out of spite then they should have legal consequences. But good lord it scares me when people start twisting this issue because there used to be a time when no one believed a woman in a situation like this; I would prefer we not go back there. Sadly, the man that puked this article up also provides dating advice to men: The Man’s No-Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth. <<Shudder>>

#I have a sick addiction to reality TV. Sick. Today I really enjoyed an episode of The Search For The Next Pussycat Doll…their ‘challenge’ was to perform at the real Pussycat Doll lounge in Vegas which is in Caesars at Pure. It was particularly fun to watch because I got to that club a few weeks ago. :)

#It really sucks and hurts when people ditch you, especially when it starts to feel like it’s a frequent occurrence.

#New pictures of the puppy!

#After I struggle and eek through my statistics projects this weekend I have a reprieve from school until the 7th next month. Desperately needed break!

#I am already looking forward to the due date on  my next hair appointment. I will be more blond. :)

#Today, I am finally starting my Yoga Booty Ballet workout. :) And I will be laughing hysterically at myself the entire time…with the blinds shut tightly of course (hey…I’m on the bottom freaking floor!).

Happy things
