Interested???

I started out the weekend with absolutely no plans but Sunday ended up being fairly busy.  Saturday I mostly just sat around and watched really bad tv in between playing around online.  Sunday, my mom and I went to a car show.  It was only supposed to be classic cars and while they did have a lot of classics, they also had a lot of newer ones too - as in, only a few years old.  I wondered why they were there.  And then there were older cars but not exactly classics.  It was a good way to spend the afternoon and the best part was that it was free!  We could have gotten a free lunch there too but chose not to.  After that, I ran a couple of errands and then had dinner at my mom's house.

While we were at the car show, I got to pet the softest little doxie!  Her name is Daisy and she was the friendliest little dog.  I still can't get over how soft and silky her fur is.  I've never pet a dog that soft.  Now I'm wishing I would've asked what doggie shampoo her owner uses on her so my boys would be like that.  Their fur is soft but not that silky soft.

Today is my friend's birthday.  To celebrate, she wants to go to a Men's Revue.  Basically, we'll be seeing a generic version of the Chippendale's.  She finally seems to be getting over the ex after an unwanted divorce 3 1/2 years ago and is now very much living the single life.

I start my new job on Wednesday.  Actually, I'm just doing some training Weds. and Thurs., I won't start my new job until August 22nd.  After thinking about it for a little bit, I realized this job will be a great way to see all my old friends from the first semester.  Not every professor uses the testing center but the large majority do.  While the testing center isn't a library, it has to remain quiet like one while students complete their tests so I won't get to talk to them much but that's ok, at least I'll still get to see them!  I've only talked just briefly to two of my friends from school over the summer so it'll be good to see them all again.

I start school in exactly 2 weeks!  I'm excited but nervous.  At least I know what to expect this time and how everything works.  What makes me most nervous is that I'll taking one more class than last semester and I'll be working on top of that.  In addition, one class requires 10 hours of online work per week.  I hope I haven't overextended myself.

It's going to take some time to acclimate myself to school again.  With that in mind, I'll be taking a one to two week bloggy break.  I didn't have much luck last time I asked but I'm gonna ask again.  Is anyone interested in guest posting for me?  You can write about pretty much anything you want - your own experience in college, the great summer you had (or didn't have), your favorite vacation, why you love your pets so much - the possibilities are simply endless!  I know not everyone appreciates guest posters but I figure it's better than to just have an empty blog for a week or two.  If you're interested, leave me a comment saying so and I'll get back to you.  Thanks!
