Turkeys

Well at least some online lj quiz thinks I should be in grad school. Really that is all the encouragement I need.

You Should Get a PhD in Science (like chemistry, math, or engineering)

You're both smart and innovative when it comes to ideas.
Maybe you'll find a cure for cancer - or develop the latest underground drug.

Yummm pizza.

When I was driving to work today in the car, I had something I wanted to write about, but I think I lost it somewhere on Route 18. I always get these interesting topics in my head and the second I get in to work...every great thought ducks and runs for cover.

Thanksgiving was actually relaxing. I helped make Tom the Turkey, or so we dubbed him. I managed not to eat any more bird until last night and this evening at work. Oh I went and saw the Pride and Prejudice movie with Keira Knightley. Ehh....it was "tolerable at best...but not handsome enough to tempt me." I will still forever love the BBC version of it. Oh Colin Firth...you really are Mr. Darcy. Now if I could only find a Mr. Darcy of my own.

oh personal reminder...never talk about any romantic possibilities...cause the second i do...things just go down the shitter. I need to go back to being totally enthralled with my own thoughts, ideas, and activities. For some reason my total lack of interest in guys really gets them going. WTF dude...WTF?

Umm yeah...I'm at work, and my brain lacks any coherent thought...I wish I remembered what it was I wanted to write.

:oP on me.

You ought to know...You are a git Ron!

So I haven't written in a while.

1. My gre subject test is over. I will never, I repeat, never take another gre related exam ever again. ETS could go...suck a walnut for all I care. But the upside is all of my applications related activities are over and I have had the oppurtunity to now calm down. Get back to doing everything that I've been neglecting recently.

2. Things are looking really good for my mom. The hope is, keep your fingers crossed, that her last treatment will be at the beginning of December and she will be done in time for Christmas. What a cool present that would be.

3. Tonight is chill night, with Beckie. It includes...well it no longer includes handiwork seeing as we masterfully put together her television stand, but it will include brownies and fun movies. Hurray!! Saturday looks to be a day of shopping...I refuse to go out shopping on Black Friday. I can't stand people on Black Friday. Then maybe some hanging out in the evening on Saturday.

4. Oh....my brother came home by surprise on Wednesday. Well it wasn't a surprise for me, seeing as he told me. But the scream that came out of my mother when he came out from hiding in the closet was classic. "Where is your brother, we know he is here. His car is outside." "His laundry is in the waching machine." "Did he take the dog for a walk?---No ma, the dog is sitting right here." "Is he out for a run in the cold and the rain? No he wouldn't do something silly like that." It was great.

5. Harry Potter and work. I think last night was the second most stupidest thing I've ever done that is work-related. Never...ever go to a midnight showing of a movie...on a Thursday night. I suppose you could go if the movie was only an hour and a half. But 2.5 hours is not good. Especially when you need to be up by 6am so you can be at work by 8 am. But the upside of my inability to keep my eyes from completely shutting this morning is the fact that I got to see Goblet of Fire. Don't read below if you don't want to know about the movie...or my thoughts.

Booo on tagging!

Name 5 of life's simple pleasures that you like most, then pick 5 people to do the same. Try to be original and creative and not to use things that someone else has already used. Tag 5 people on your list.

1. steam billowing as a I pour a piping hot cup of water for tea
2. the smell of fall
3. the way my pup snuggles his face into your legs when he curls up to sleep
4. curling up in my down comforter
5. singing like a rock star in the car to the best music

Ummmm....yeah i'm going to bed. Get a good night's sleep before my test. Signing off.

Cause I like to steal other people's things...

All of my applications are away. Done. No more worrying about them. Saturday is the big exam. Not really stressed, but ask me again on friday. Then we'll see. All of a sudden things have become nice and light and easy. I don't really care as much about things that bothered me before, although I have to admit there are some things that will always bother me. Studying and getting help during the week this week. Giving an exam to my class. Saturday afternoon I am free and easy to go have some serious fun. tee hee. oh imagine all the fun I can have on Saturday :::wink wink:::.

brain dead

Wow, my head hurts. Have I ever said I how much I hate forms. Well I do. I have spent the past 2.5 hours filling out forms....not for me...but for my recommenders. I made them nice envelopes, with little instructions....and all they have to do is write in how wonderful I am.

So I pretty much have that aspect and the transcript stuff done. Fancy that though, I haven't actually sent in my applications yet. I might get to that tomorrow. Damn work and class getting in the way of things.

Life has been...interesting. New friends have made life exciting, especially at work. My coworkers firmly believe that I have two boyfriends, just from the pure amount of time two fellow colleagues spend at my desk talking to me. Not that I mind, although it does discourage the students somewhat.

I can't believe it's halfway through the semester. Didn't it just start like a week ago?

maybe chicken little this weekend, getting some study help from nathan??....test next weekend, then after that
