It's 12am, do you know where your engineering student is?

Yes, she's still up. Taking a break from doing the calculations on a lab. A lab that I've seriously spent about 10 hours on OUTSIDE of school, just this week. The lab teacher didn't realize that the labs that we had downloaded off of webct (fucking joke, that is, btw, it doens't work with IE 7) had omitted pertinent information that could have saved me about 5 hours of hemming and hawing wondering why I was so stupid and couldn't figure out this damn equation. When you have one equation and two unknowns, no matter how you slice it, you cannot solve the damn thing. Period.

Did you know that in las vegas, if you're buying a house and the mortgage company wants to verify your previous addresses, the apartments charge money to release your information? Cute, huh? Guess how I found this out... :D

Let's see, what else can I complain about...

Nope, I'll get positive now.

I had written an email to the Eastglen Alumni Society asking them if they were planning our 10 year high school reunion. I just got an email back saying they are starting to round up all the people, so I'm supposed to get the word out, so THE WORD IS OUT. Email me if you want me to send Pat (yes, the same Pat that was at the front desk in high school) your email address so she can get in touch with you and send you the information for the Partaaay. Oh yes, it will be good times.

So, I'm on someone else's unsecured wireless connection, is that unethical? Wrong? Against the law? Not quite sure, but here I am. People should secure their wireless networks so people like me don't use up all their bandwidth or something like that...

Ok, I'm going to quit the lab and go to bed. Hope all y'all are having a wonderful time in whatever it is you are doing right at this very moment (besides reading this)....

YAY

So here is the picture of the finished product. We sign the papers on the 15th of February!The only bad thing is that the tree in front seems dead. Actually all the landscaping seems dead. The rocks are nice though, everyone knows how I feel about ROCKS!!! :D

It's DONE!!!

Our house is officially done! I don't have a picture right now, but I'll post one as soon as I get a chance. We're signing papers on the 15th of February, and we're really excited! We're not packed (well, there's ONE box packed) so tonight, when Brandon wakes up from his day sleeping, we're going to start.

School has started and it's crazy. I'm taking 6 classes and it's really hard. What the hell hey?

I got a new laptop for Christmas, it's my baby. I feel like I have to protect it. My motherly instincts have been activated with it. Since I will never have a real baby (ewwww), this is the closest thing. When friends try to touch the screen I almost slap their hand. Have I gone crazy? Yes.

Brandon was in a car accident this week. Some 19 year old chick ran a stop sign and he hit her. She's disputing his claim of the accident so we have to wait to get the police report to be reimbursed for the tow truck and all that crap. The thing is, the cop that was there cited her, not Brandon, so we suspect it will be 100% her fault. His car wasn't working but being the McGyver that he is, he tinkered with it and got it working so that's good. We can't really buy a car right now, what with the house and all. If you try to take out any lines of credit while you're buying a house, it totally screws up the process, as other people who have bought homes can attest to. Not the best timing for such a thing, but is there really EVER a good time for a car accident?

I'm going to a conference for the ASCE in Seattle on Feb 21, so I get to get credit for my class AND see Heather and James and the rest of the gang. I'm so excited! Heather is actually going to be making sushi on the Saturday night we're there! The only bad thing about that weekend is that's the weekend we're moving into our new house. Brandon will have to do that along with any other help he can get. I'm going to be able to move some stuff earlier that week, but he'll have to move all the big stuff. Should be interesting.... :)

Gotta go do homework!
