Meet Darwin.

We had him for all of three days and already I miss him more than I should. It turns out that Mica (and probably Braeden) is allergic to dogs, so back he went (which is another story, it was much harder than I think it should have been, but I’ll leave it at that.) I have never met a better puppy. He was friendly, calm, loving, snuggly, smart and lovable (just look at his face!) He was perfect for us in every way but one. I really, really want him back.

It’s funny how attached I became in those three days, almost unfair. I hope that, whatever happens, he goes to a good home where he can be loved half as much as he was here for three days. Bye Darwin! I’ll miss you fiercely.

The president is in Salt Lake City. I can tell because there are guards all around the Grand America hotel. I can also tell because there are signs welcoming the president to Salt Lake City. On the way up, and the way back, the train had to wait for something presidential (not for the president, I have no idea what we were waiting for, certainly not a motorcade...)

They have put concrete barriers all around the presidential compound, otherwise known as the Grand America Hotel.

Car is having trouble, something electrical, though I don’t know what yet. One thing that amazes me is how this stuff only seems to happen right after loan money starts coming in. A week ago, and I would have been completely hosed. As it is, I’m just a little hosed. Hoser me. I hope that some day, I have enough (even just enough) money to not worry quite so much.

Sweet!

I wanted to add Anatomy with lab instead of Physiology this semester. The problem was, so did about a hundred (really, hundred) other people. In addition, it was: people who had dropped without realizing they needed an add code to ad a different section, then people transferring between lab sections. After that it was seniors, then juniors, then finally me and the other sophmores (I’m TWO credits shy of being a junior...) As far as I could tell, all of the freshman either gave up or weren’t in this class.

Summer is over, as is the break between summer and fall. (I’ll only mention it once, all the green stuff is what I did over the break. Complete redesign of the site, ok, that’s all, it is already a site about me making this site...) So, now that I literally cannot think of anything else about the design that bugs me, or that I need to change, it’s time to WRITE!

Spring semester was kind to me, almost unreasonably so.  I got an ‘A’ in Gen-Chem I, for crying out loud. Summer semester was not as kind. I pulled an ‘A’ in trig, through sheer luck; my professor made it too easy for a college math class. I’m relieved, and it worked out well for me, but a nine-question, two-hour final was a bit silly, I felt totally unprepared going in, but knew it all. Won’t matter in the future, an A’s an A, so time to move on.
