4. You and me both
I admit it. :hug:

I've given up on most of my e-mail addresses. The Spam has won the battle.

3. August 20th!
The countdown has begun. I'm currently stressing over my schedule, wondering if I'll be able to find classes that fit ThinkBlue1966's work schedule...

6. i won't tell you to not stress
but i will suggest that you breathe. i'd also suggest looking into whether the school has a carpool program or something. that might help take some of the load off

what classes do you want to take?

10. Well, it's not so much what I *want* to take
as what I *need* to take.

The University has a complex system of "Cluster" classes that I have to choose from. It's a big headache.

13. I'm going to be a Political Science major
so those are the classes I'm gravitating to most. It's what I'm *good* at.

Beyond that--I apparently need lots of History, Foreign Language, English, etc. And a couple of Math and Science Lab courses that I'm dreading.

19. good luck with the math and science
it was the science (and statistics) that i had the hardest time with. i loved my poli sci classes, i wish i'd gotten a minor in it.

20. Kinda
I have fibromyalgia and a herniated spinal disc, among other things. Plus, we're pretty much financially destitute. We have no spare cash for "fun". :( So I rarely leave the house.

23. Ouch. Sorry about that.
Here's the good vibe fairy:

And the wierd-vibes good-luck-magic-gnome-thing:


One cool thing that happened today was that I made a salad out of lettuce I grew in my backyard. :9

27. *envy* I want a garden!
I'm seriously considering growing as much of a potted garden as I can next spring. We don't have much yard space for planting outdoors.

38. Tomatoes do good in containers.
They need a lot of sun, but not much space. My uncle used to grow them in 5-gallon paint buckets. And when you grow them yourself, they are so much sweeter than the ones from the store. :9

21. My dear oktoberain...
I must confess to being a little bit lonely too...

I just got home from my local Dem Club meeting, and so I feel as though I've missed out on most of the evening doings here in the Lounge...

I'm happy to keep you company, sweetie...:hug:

29. When I'm up late at night, and lonely...
I remember who's up with me, quietly trampling the carpet, wondering what tomorrow will bring, and how many people I will meet. Remember, love is all we need.

36. I work from home so I am doing some paper work waiting for some trucks to come in.
I have my lap top on DU and my company computer next to my laptop.

I just ride my chair back and forth.

It's just me and the cat. I'm usually not home at night because I'm at work. I left early tonight. :)
