Need some input from my friends.



Ok, i cant decide. double major or major minor.

i was really thinking about double major in business and psych. but looking at what i need to get done kind of scares me a little.

psych: about 21 credits left.
business. like 70 credits left.

thats another 5 semesters to get it all done. so im looking at summer of 2011 at best to finish. then grad schools and whole lots more fun.


but if i do a psych major business minor:

psych 21 credits:
business 21 credits.

so i could be done by next fall. but i will only have 1 major. might have issues with business grad school that I have to check into.

on one hand i want to get both majors. the other hand i want to get it done and over with.


so what do you think? all input request and welcome.

well had a rough run there. but i think they are starting to improve somewhat. or at least not suck so much i will take it.
to some up why things sucked. tuesday september 29th to october 3.

started stressing about where i want to go with my schooling.

1 of my work friends was pretty much told there was nothing else they could do for her cancer. I saw that coming but still sucks.

my boss out of the blue said i was not cutting it in the best job i ever had. that was a serious kick to the ego. i posted a small bit about that.

and my stepfather of 18 years announced that he cheated on my mom. to make matters worse it was with the single worst person in the world it could have been with. my brothers Xwife. the whore in law. oh and the unterine parasite she is carrying might be his.

yeah. great week.


it pretty much put my whole month into the shitter. i was thrown for a loop the first couple of weeks. spent way too much time angry but things have started to improve.

the first part was i told my boss i wanted out of the job and back to the call floor so i could work on school. so now after being at my company since april 06 im back in new hire training. and rapidly seeing i still know just about everything i should be relearning.

went to the star wars in concert. seeing all my friends helped me break the funk.

then started working on school. with the fact that im going to transfer to a school im not uber excited about, i got all the school stuff settled. lets see if i can get my double major in business and psych done in 5 semesters at the most. its probably going to suck to take on that much, but i want to.

and finally dealling with the issue of he who is dead to me. the Dbag pretty much did not contact me. oh most everyone else in the family he talked to about what he did. not me or the clone.and then my mother for whatever reason has decided to let the fucker back in. that does not sit well with me.

i decided the best way i could deal with this way to write a letter. a very angry letter telling him just how little i thought of him. after getting a wonderful rewrite from ZOO that focused my anger i delivered it thursday.

the letter clearly spelled out just how little i thought of him, his actions and a few other things i said in the letter never talk to me again. the wonderful thing is that he was there to get it. i walked in and the fucker tried to talk to me. i handed it to him and went to tell my mother what i was doing. after explaining that i will not take part in any event or gathering he is at, she got pissed. and about that time he came in. i think he expected me to talk to him. guess he missed the part where that letter was the last communication i plan on ever having with him.

I told my mom that i had to go. when I went to leave he tried to talk to me. some BS about how he knows i do not want to here it but he still loves me.after resisting the urge to kill i rolled my eyes and walked out. no words (or angry fists of fury) from me. that would not have happened a couple of weeks ago.

so no more contact with him. course it means several family members wont talk to me. but hey life is full of choices. he made his. my mother made hers. I made mine. such us life. finding that part pretty easy actually.

so yay school, yay new old position, and double YAY telling off the worthless piece of shit. things are looking up.

I need the ladies input on something. Do women really find mens calves sexy?  yeah. i am asking that. do you find mens calves sexy?


ok for back story so you don't think im creepy weird. at work we were talking about costumes for this weekend at work.  A female coworker commented on the calves of guys they saw at the ren faire when they went. which kind of launched a mini drool fest over calves.

seriously?

I have decided to proclaim today happy friday! with all the  Super huge shit piles of DOOM around me lately i think its needed.

so nothing negative today. I shall only think of the positive.

so happiness so far:

Hit another weight loss marker. YAY!!!   -75 and rocking lower.
I actually slept like 5 hours.   that was nice. I need more nights like that.
I realized if i can work my schedule right i can be done with my bachelors in 3 more semesters.
all my roommates are working overnights tonight. I get the place to myself!!
I had poprocks!!!
Get to see my friends and an awesome concert this weekend.


I think everyone who reads this should post a happy list of their own. Find the happy in your own day.

garlic hummus and veggies. YUM

Veggies and mountain dew. YUM

garlic hummus, veggies and mountain dew. OMFG gross.

my horoscope:

You've long boasted that there's never a dull moment in the MidWestern Medco mail room, but that will all change next week when a round of hijinks with the office copier goes horribly awry, generating a stasis field that envelops the entire third floor.


kinda makes me worry. its all wrong in the details but close enough.

Medco = PBM. like my  company. direct competition. I run the mail room.and my new printer is most likely getting hooked up next week.

stasis field anyone?

just a lack of sleep and an overall goofyness that comes with it.

we did have to get up at 6 am that day to march three miles in costumes if that provides a litte context to how loopy we are.


( last warning before the pictures )

i have found the easiest method. wear a kilt to work. they all kind of freaked.  and a lot are asking about my undergarment status.  telling them im not gonna answer seems to make them more intrigued.   hehehehe

quoted from losingntrnslatn  .



a tip for waitstaff. don't try and take dessert away when its only half gone. i  have a spoon and am not afraid to use it.

the urge to get my WoW account going again is hitting me really bad right now. and im really tempted. sigh.

ok i didnt think this would be so hard to do. 8 happy things. something for today.


hmm. my new shift at work means i get to go in earlier 3 days a week. so i shall have some evenings free. thats cool.

hmmm crazy lady at work who went off on me got fired today. that was cool.

and one of my friends got promoted at work. he is on my level now. i still dont know how i got promoted a year and a half ago and he didnt. but im glad he did.

ok so i missed yesterday. not such a happy day.

so day 4. something happy. they opened another spot for the job i wanted but didnt get last month? I am happy i get to try again. well happy to get the shot at more cash.  and get away from having to do all the crap work.


day 5 is better. a job i tried for MONTHS ago may finally be getting opened. right when it was my turn to go for the interview the Governor had to put a hiring freeze in place. see if i vote for him again. kidding. i get why he did it. he just had crappy timing. I was next to be interviewed. they burned through 6 people who did not make it. 2 got the spot. 1 got an interview but they could not do anything with them because the freeze so they get another shot. this im not worried about. as the are looking to fill a couple of spots.

and they guy who is in charge of the department is really keen to get another guy back there. and with the clone talking to him i think i stand a really really good shot at it.


so two potential shots at getting a better job in two days. thats good. since i got someone fired yesterday.

had a hard time thinking of what to write about today cause im sleepy. then it hit me. SLEEP. ya, sounds stupid. how can sleep be something that makes ya happy. well wake me up over something stupid and watch me kill and roast the bluebird of happiness right in front of you. and if it has chicks i will make them watch too.

there is nothing better than waking up without the alarm clock going off. just getting to wake up after a nice peaceful night of sleep. with the warmth of 3-4 (or 6)blankets. and knowing ya slept well. its hard to put me in a bad mood when i wake up like that. dont get to wake up this way very often but when I do WAHOO!!

so technically this was supposed to be up about 2 hours ago, but hey i was driving home from denver then.

today the thing that made me happy is actually two parts. first was hanging out with fan force. despite the drama that happened in the past week it seems like everyone let it go and had a lot of fun with each other. yeah i suck at rock band (drums are rough for a first time player) but i still had a lot of fun. also gotta kick ass bear from losingntrnslatn . a tweedle bear. me and the clone got matching bears. they are so awesome. perfect match to our tweedle costumes down to the same fabric used.PIMPIN bear.

and the second part hit me on the way home. this was 6 year mark for my first fan force meeting. while the actually day is in about a week, its still so weird to think about.

6 years ago i got into the first car i ever purchased on my own (owned not even two weeks at that point), drove to springs to pick up sarahzilla . we drove the rest of the way to denver to go see the two towers with another RMFFer. after that we headed a short distance over to losingntrnslatn  place for the holiday meeting. where i met most of the gang. all having never actually been the driver in either springs or denver.

this was my first meeting. i had been on the boards prior to that for 6 months. i had never met 1 person of the group before that day. my parents were freaking out that my barely 19 year old self was driving over 100 miles to meet a bunch of "weirdos" from the internet. i had to admit i was a little nervous as well. but i had a feeling it was a great group of folks and that it would be fun. I feel that i am truly lucky to have such an awesome group of friends who were and are so welcoming.
 
being with this group has allowed me to meet amazing people from all over the world. it has allowed me to travel to places i had never thought to  travel to. I dont know what my life would be like if i had not found the group.

Rules: For 8 days you have to post something that made you happy that day. Tag a few people to do the same! Yes, that's all!


I tag and anyone else who wants to play along!


since there is enough doom and glood in the world (and at work for me) i decided it was time to spread some happier stuff.


this song makes me happy every time i hear it. the cheese factor alone is enough to make me smile. i only wish i had that much dance talent.




plus it helps that it drives my clone crazy.

 

Hope everyone had a great turkey day!!
