Photo Collection
20 days until my birthday (Holy Crap!!!)
I really haven’t felt like writing lately, nor does it seem I have anything to write about. So I proudly present a random collage of photos I’ve taken over the last couple months.
This was Lisa’s birthday dinner back in August. Yay, Chili’s!
My lovely sister making her belly big… I can do so much better!
I used to see hot air balloons every Saturday morning on my way to work. I guess there are SOME perks to being awake at 7am.
This is one of the cooks at The Back Room, Dewey. He makes a mean breakfast burrito.
This pic from my Religion and Dance class, on the day we studied Ghana. The instrument is called a seproah.
We bought this bed for Ernie when he was just a kitten and he has long since outgrown it, but he’s still attached to it so we keep it around. He either has to curl up in a donut or leave his top and bottom halves laying out. So cute.
I saw this gigantic poodle sticking its head out of a sunroof on my way to school one day and it just cracked me up. Seriously, this dog looked as big as a person.
I took this on my front porch during a rainstorm. Oooooh, artsy.
I witnessed this gorgeous sunset a couple weeks ago while waiting for the bus. I was reading my book when I noticed the pages looked orangey and looked up just in time to catch it.
This is John Edwards’s daughter, Kate. I saw her give a speech on campus yesterday. If I had had any doubts about who I was going to vote for, they would have vanished once I saw her awesome peacoat.
So there you go. Something to tide you over until I feel like writing!

That’s right, folks. SARS is listed right there along with pneumonia in my anatomy book. I’m sooooooooo glad I spent the extra million dollars to get the most recent edition.

30 days until my birthday
I’m pretty much better. Close enough, anyway. I have full use of my ears and 95% of my nose. Hooray!
I’ve decided on a whim to go to Austin for Halloween. Samantha tempted me with her sexy party, and I’ve never been one who could resist those darn sexy parties. So I’ll be spending plenty of time in the car that weekend… any recommendations for road trip music? I’m open.
Also, I now know ALL THE WORDS to the Aqua Teen Hunger Force theme song. Feel free to try and bribe me.

34 days until my birthday.
Well it appears I’ve survived the first part of the week. Amazing. My Vikings test was hard… the professor actually got booed in class yesterday. Don’t get me wrong, I though it was a little unfair too, but booing the professor?? Wow. My anatomy practical wasn’t as hard as I expected, which was nice. You try learning the origins, insertions, and actions of 82 muscles over the course of two days and see how confident you feel. The astronomy exam was, of course, a piece of cake. Now I just gotta cross my fingers and hope I did well on everything.
Not having a job is relaxing, I’ll admit it. But it’s also depressing me… if I don’t stay busy I tend to fall into a rut. I’m going to try and enjoy my “vacation” as much as I can, but hopefully it won’t last too long.
My cold is slightly better. My eustachian tubes seem to have unclogged and I popped my ears for the first time in DAYS this morning. It was painful, but a joyous kind of pain. But I still can’t taste my food. Boooooooo.
So, um, yeah. My life really isn’t too exciting right now, so I don’t have much to write about. I guess I’m off to poke around some cadavers in my anatomy lab.

That’s what’s clogged. That’s what’s making my life miserable right now, with the pressure in the ears and the loss of hearing and the dizziness. Stupid tube.
I have a cold. Send me flowers and teddy bears and maybe I can forget about the runny nose and coughing and sneezing and sore throat and did I mention the clogged eustachian tubes? Feel sorry for me! Also, I am currently accepting volunteers to take my anatomy practical exam for me tomorrow.

40 days until my birthday
Last night was my last shift at the bar, at least for a little while. I am under the impression that this is to be a temporary thing… more like a vacation than a layoff. If I think of it that way maybe I can even enjoy my new free time! I was pretty depressed at work and I’m an emotional eater so I thought it would make me feel better to eat a shitload of bar food. Wrong! Instead I almost went into a coma from having eaten so much. Oy.
The good news is my absentee ballot has arrived and in the very near future I will be casting my vote in my first presidential election! I was thinking of having Lisa take some pictures to commemorate the occasion. You know, something to show the grandkids. “Grandma, what’s that thing you’re using to mark that paper?” “Oh honey, that’s what we called a pen. They stopped making those back in 2027.”
So yeah… nothing too interesting going on right now. Three tests next week. I swear, the professors get together and try to figure out how to schedule ALL THE TESTS AT ONCE just to make things more difficult on us.
This entry has turned out to be kind of a ramble, so I’m just going to put it out of its misery. Peace.

I may never make it to my first 11am Saturday shift at the bar. Tom, one of the owners, lost his day job and unless he miraculously finds another one in the next few days he and Ginny are going to take over all the shifts at the bar and everyone will be cut loose. I harbor no hard feelings for them… the circumstances are beyond their control and they gotta do what they gotta do. But man does this SUCK. Just when things were getting so very perfect, everything gets shaken up again. So everyone, please cross your fingers or pray or do whatever it is you do that I get to keep my job.
You know, I wouldn’t feel so cheated if I had done something to deserve getting fired. Maybe tomorrow I should steal a bottle of Goldschlager or, say, everything in the safe.
Also, because of some major drama that I had nothing to do with, I have been given a citation from the lovely Louisville PD for overserving. Which is, by the way, complete bull seeing as how by the time they got there the bar had already been closed for 20 minutes and they didn’t see me serve that lady shit. She chugged her last beer because we were closing and how is it my fault if that’s the one that pushed her past her limits? I obeyed the law and I’m not the one who fucking assaulted someone so just leave me out of your drama, thankyouverymuch.
Ugh. I am not loving life right now.
