Once again, I have been prohibited to sleep...ugh! I have to work in about three hours, and this does not make me happy! I'm going to have to go to the store before I go in for my morning shift and buy myself a two liter of Mtn. Dew to keep myself from falling over!
Life has been rather uneventful, nothing exciting to report. I'm leaving for Minneapolis in nine days, and I can't wait! Of course I have to find people to work for me, but that's almost done. If I have to just take personal time, I'm going to take it, the tickets are non-refundable, and I'm not losing nearly $200 because the place I work is insane when it comes to taking time off.
I signed my life away and joined a gym type thing today! It's all part of my "Campaign for a happier healthier Tracy" ....well I'm not really creating that monster, but I think the exercise will be a good thing. We'll see what happens. I think I may actually be able to stick with this one, it's not boring like somethings I've tried. I'll keep ya posted! So the computer is going psycho! It's time to sign off!!!!!

My body has decided that sleep is illegal, I haven't really slept in about two days, and it's a trifle annyoing as usual! Maybe I'm pregnant...okay maybe not! : ) I'm glad that work was rather low key today because I just don't think I would have done well had it been difficult! It's really nice to have two staff and one resident...
I wish I had something profound and moving to say, but I don't. So I'll leave you with a moment of zen....

Goldfish...the snack that smiles back until you bite their heads off....

And it's Wednesday. I have finally extracted (is that the word I want?) myself from my apartment even though I still feel like I've been run over by a freight train. I figured that if I wasn't better by now, it's not happening anytime soon, so I will just have to grin and bear it. My hyposthesis is that I have strep, but we're going to wait a few days before I decide that for sure, and go to the doctor. I've been to the doctor way too much lately, I don't want to go if it's not necessary!
Brandi and I have found out way to the computer lab in the union to perform the ritual checking of the e-mail. What would we college type people do without it? I seriously think we would perish. It's rather pathetic actually....
Okay, there are two guys dancing in the middle of the room...hmmm this place never ceases to amaze me!

I expected this outcome! And it wasn't just because Kay got the same thing either!

So I survived the stealing of my wisdom. There are now three large holes in the back of my mouth, and they're rather sore. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but I'm really happy that it's over. A good good thing! I don't remember much from this morning, except that the gas stuff was pretty cool. I didn't think it was affecting me at all and then suddenly I couldn't feel my fingers anymore. And I felt even spacier than I normally did...go figure! Then I heard them calling my name so I would wake up. I don't remember how I got from the chair to the next room where they let me lay down, nor do I really remember how I got to the car and then onto the couch in my parents house, but I got there.
I also have wonderful friends, who came over and stayed with me most of the afternoon after my dad went to work. Mike brought me milkshakes . Jamie brought a CD burner, lots of hugs,and Mtn. Dew. Brandi and Jennifer brought joy. Talking to Kay brought more joy, I feel so loved. Amanda tried to clean my room, which deserves a medal or something. I was well taken care of! They're so awesome! Now I have a couple of days to rest and recover and then it's back to the grind of work and school. But Novermber is coming, I'm going to Minneapolis soon!!!!!
So thanks to everyone who thought about me or prayed for me this morning! I really appreciate it! They worked! I survived and I survived rather well! This is a good thing!!!

Less than nine hours before they steal my wisdom...I'm so pickin' nervous! I just wish it were over! I feel about six right now, I should throw a fit like I did then...I had to have a second eye surgery and just did not make me happy. I was such a brat!

Another day another dollar...or something like that... I babysat for two little bundles of joy this evening, and they truly were bundles of joy, I just wish I would have had the energy to keep up with them. And soon there will be a third bundle...quite cool! Two two year olds and a newborn...wow she's a glutton for punishment! I love kids, but wow! That's got to be at least a little overwhelming.
Tomorrow is Wednesday which is the day before Thursday which means I have one more day before my teeth are taken from their comfy spots in the back of my mouth. I'm not looking forward to this, I'm not really sure why I'm so nervous, but I really am, but at the same time, getting it over with will be good too! Maybe they'll let me go through the treasure box or something!!! They let me do that at my old dentist until I was 21, I got a balloon too! And the only reason they stopped me at 21 was because I had to stop going to that dentist because he only worked with children...hmmm....
Oh I've got to come up with something interesting...hmmm...something interesting. I bought myself some plane tickets the other day! I just couldn't resist their unbelievable beauty and glamour, they just had to be mine! Well I couldn't resist the fact that they would get me to Minneapolis in less than a month. I'm making my own fall break since my real fall break is going to be four days of narcotic bliss! I'm very excited about going out there! I miss my Ruthanne! I also miss my Kay, but she didn't have Veteran's Day off, so it wasn't a great idea to go bother her.
I got my first parking ticket of the season today! The Parking Nazis managed to hunt me down and outfit my parents' van with a delightful orange envelope. They're so thoughtful, it's just what I've always wanted, why I haven't gotten one of those in two years! (Yeah and two years ago I had like 17 or something!) Why, I think I'll tear it up and use it as confetti at my next birthday party! I also found out today that the regime is charging a quarter for every 15 minutes on some of the newer parking meters...a QUARTER! And it can't be two dimes and a nickel either...they have to steal our precious laundry money! They need to design parking meters that not only time you on how long your parked, but wash and dry clothes too....but they would probably make it a quarter a minute for that luxury. Ah...I love this school!

So I'm sitting in my Stratification of Poverty class, and I'm trying so hard to listen to the dude lecture about Weber and bureauacracy (I doubt that's spelled right), and suddenly I found myself thinking of the strangest stuff...but it was mildly entertaining, so I'll share!
What would happen if you fell into a gigantic pit of styrofoam peanuts? How in the world would you get out? Would they crush you if you sunk all the way to the bottom of the pit? Could you breathe underneath them...do humans float in styrofoam????? Don't ask me where that came from, but I thought about it for a good ten minutes. I'm so odd!

Today I discovered a very important fact....It's hard to have class when your teacher died over the weekend. So just in case anyone was wondering about that, I went ahead and did the research for you. I actually decided to go to Tolkien class today, and the teacher didn't show up and everyone was whispering about something. I heard snippets like "Well this is just what I heard from someone who works with his daughter", and "What are they going to do about giving us credit for the course?" So I kind of gathered that something had gone terribly wrong. And then someone came in and told us. It was pretty crazy. They're hoping to find someone else to take over the class by sometime next week, but for now we all just get to walk around in a state of shock...
So now that I've gotten that out of the way let's move on! Something happy...something happy...hmmm....this shouldn't be so hard....oh! I officially got into the nanny school! I was very excited, I got my letter on Saturday. So now I just need to figure out where the money is going to come from. But I'd rather not worry about that right now!
I have another test tomorrow...I'm not thrilled. I have a lot of studying to do, and I have two year olds coming over at 6:00. I probably should be studying instead of blogging, but I'm not. I will study tonight, and tomorrow when I get home from work. Hopefully that will work. I'm so sick of school!
