One hurdle down and more show up

Ok, so I lied. :( Well....sort of kind of.
See, things really did start to settle down, but then I had this huge story for the school paper that I was working on. By huge I mean, like, documents upon documents of information, data, two 1.5hr interview recordings, and other crap that I had to compile into an article. It took forever, but I'm really very proud of it. It ran on the stands 2 days ago and it looks awesome.
I was going to post all this a week ago, yesterday, but my little brother asked the day before if he could come up and visit me again. He's been waiting to get commissioned into the Navy and has been a little bored I think. :P But it's good cause I like seeing my brothers.
So when Hubby and I got home from class I had to start cleaning the rest of the boxes and stuff. This worked in my favor because while there is still some crap here and there, Hubby and I actually have a livable space now! WOOOO! It looks pretty decent. :)

Oh, so I've gained a new nickname in my Stat's class. My teacher calls students by a name that he can easily associate us with. Like, there's "Cellphone" for the girl who texted in class on the first day, and "Late Homework" for the student who had late homework, "Alaska" for the chick who lived in Alaska.....etc. Anyways, because I'd found a really major mistake on our exam last week I've gained the nickname Hawkeye. Lol. Totally dorky, I know, but I've never found mistakes on a test before so it stroked my ego a bit. XD  I also got 2 extra credit points for it, since it saved him a lot of time.

So as my title puts, it seems like once I get one thing down more things to do come up. So I'm still busy, though I'm happy so I guess I won't complain. The past few days I've actually been lucky in that I had nothing to do except go to class and go to work. So I spent all my free time playing WoW, which I plan on doing before work today too. It feels great to relax and play games.

Oh! So the night before last I went to sleep at like 2am, because a bunch of dogs outside decided to do the Twilight Bark (yes I just used a 101 Dalmatians reference). It was this one little dog barking a lot and then one other dog that would respond to everything with one "woof", every time. Hubby apparently had a dream that he took a shotgun, shot both of them, and then returned to bed while people congratulated him. Lol.


Of course though, since I got crappy sleep I was totally brain dead in class. I started to wake up more around lunch, so I got something to eat with BIL. We met some friends of his and this really really tall guy. He had to be the tallest dude I've ever seen. BIL called him "one big bad mamofama." Lol. The man had to be almost 7-8ft though.

Work was ok. We seem to get all the REALLY stupid and lazy customers, compared to the other stores. They never put anything back where they got it from, even if that space is right in front of them. I also made quite a few mistakes that I really shouldn't have...but my boss was working with me and pretty much covered my ass each time. :/ I still feel bad, but he told me just to be more diligent next time and not to worry about it.

BUT! It's all ok because I got to bring home something aaaaawwesome. See, at work we always get those posters and cardboard cutouts of upcoming games. But, we're a small store and can't display everything due to space. So I got to lay claim to a WoW poster and cardboard cutout of the upcoming villain, Deathwing the dragon. XD!

So I come home to Hubby finishing up steak 'n mushrooms, Asian salad, and portobellos stuffed with pesto and parmesan cheese. We ate, got wasted, and put together my Deathwing cutout. So while it was a rough start of a day, it was a great night. And today was the first day I slept in past 9am. :D I got up at noon, showered, and am about to enjoy some more gaming. :)  Work will be much better tonight because I am charged with the job of decorating to celebrate a new rewards card we have.

Oh yeah, for now I've decided to just update every Saturday. It seems like every time I'm ready to make a post during the week something comes up. Either that or I've been so busy that all I want to do is relax. So for now this will be updated weekly on Sat or Sun. :)
