heavy sigh (back to the real world) after months of being an unemployed bum, i am returning to the (semi) real world this week.

mondays are reserved for doggy (doody) duty. that lasts from 9 a.m. until early afternoon.

tuesdays and thursdays i'll have class from 2-7, more or less.

wednesday and friday are days i am at home (unless i pick up a wednesday night class to make it five; i am trying to work it out another way, though). this is a blessing! better than the MWF school schedule i had last semester. i had to sit some things out last semester, including a trip to key west that chris made... so having a long weekend every weekend, whether to devote to classwork or something fun like a trip, is awesome. i'm so glad the classes worked out the way they did!

this break hast been nice, i have to admit. galapagos were great. wisconsin, although a very long stay, was well worth it. even getting to go away for a long weekend to key west... all things that this freedom has allowed me.

of course, i have next to zilch for money. negative zilch, actually. (thank you, credit card companies!) that's not so good. with the return of classes comes financial aid, and that cannot come a moment too soon.

and while sleeping in is nice because it feels soooo niiiiiiiice, i feel uber bad for waking up after 10 every day. the return of a bit of structure will be good.

so yeah. big week over here. :)  ¶ 9:43 PM
