Hello and welcome to my blog. You have travelled many moons through cyberspace to arrive here so take off your coat, grab a steaming hot cup of peppermint tea and settle in near the fire. I think some question begging is in order.

Just in case you didn't know
I ***love*** my pets. If I get accepted into the Peace Corps I might have to swallow them in balloons to get them passed customs.
Today is the first day
So I have 3 exams next week, 3 papers due and 46 speeches to grade. I admit that while I am thankful for having a great job I would LOVE it to be, like, December 16th already. Then I'd be on my way to D-town and ready to hang out with my peeples. And I LOVE hanging out with my peeples.
But instead I have to write 20ish pages and 20ish pages of reviews because I AM that much of a total geek that I TYPE EVERY EXAM REVIEW. Can anyone else relate to that? Anyone at all?
I know the only people that actually read this are people who want to post links to their own infomercials, but c'mon. Perhaps even infomercial salespeople took exams once.
So I am totally fighting the doldrums (and doing a damn fine job, I might add) b/c I had it stuck in my head that I was going to graduate summa cum laude and I WON'T because I took two advanced Spanish classes like over a YEAR ago. I got B's BOTH times b/c, hey, it's been five years since I took a formal Spanish lesson. So 'B' is pretty good (it was the pop literature reading quizzes that did it) I guess. But it means I will be six-tenths of a point off from 3.9 GPA. Blast it.
It's a load of shite, I tell you.
But I do read/write better Spanish now than I did before (not sure that says alot) so I s'pose it's worth it.
Adios, mis cabrones.
