Vacation = Over

I'm back from vacation. And I work at 5 tomorrow morning. And I'm definetly not looking forward to it. For some reason I'm also working alot more shifts than I was supposed to work. Going to have to talk to the boss about that. Cause well... I can't do that.
Bought books today. Three hundred dollars later I have all but one which is backordered. I would like to rant on how much course packets are. You know those ones where the profs pick a bunch of articles and have them photocopied and stapled together? Yeah. Those ones. Well mine was seventy dollars and I'm apalled. Okay. End of rant.
A co-worker just called (one who I really like and who was supposed to be leaving at the end of the summer but is staying, yay!) and asked if she could sell condoms to a fourteen year old. Had to tell her she could. She put me on hold to sell them etc and then got back on the phone with me and shared how horrible it was, how she hated that he was having sex but how she didn't want him getting the girl pregnant etc. I kinda wish there was an age limit on selling them though... it would make it alot easier and much less of a judgement call for us, as we can refuse the sale if we feel they should be getting them.
Mom got me a christmas gift while we were away this week. I know what it is though, and I must share cause they make me giggle and I can't wait to have them gracing my kitchen. These are awesome. She got me a frog and a duck!
I have lots more to share but it will have to come after I work tomorrow, go for a run and unpack! So till then!

Mid-Vacation Post

We went yardsaling yesterday morning. Great fun. I bought some books. Some Winnie the Pooh and Nancy Drew ones to be exact. And a couple old ones. Oh and "The Green Mile". Also bought a muffin pan for ten cents. Ooo and a really pretty suede jacket for eight dollars. I love yardsales.
Then I came home and finished Odd Thomas. Good book that.
I've got mom and my sister really liking Firefly. Which is kinda cool. Actually its really cool.
I got to hold an adorable baby. So beautiful. I want one. Now. Ooo and I got to hold a kitten, very cute. I want one of those too. But not now.
Okay, well Mom and I are gone tomorrow morning for our official vacation. I'm really looking forward to being all touristy and the like. Quite exciting. Anyways... we're driving the sister somewhere now. Sooo off I go. Tootles.

Vacation!!

Sooooo excited!!
I'm off today to the hometown for a week. I'm bringing books and H4H stuff to do. Mom and I are going away for a day or two during the week, which should be nice or at least to get away to a new city for awhile should be fun.
So anyways, this is my off to vacation post. Hope everyone has a great week, though I'm sure I'll post something semi-exciting during the course of the week. Later!

SusieQ's Relationship Resume

Why I'd make a great girlfriend:

1. I'll cook for you. And not because of any male vs. female stereotypes or anything like that but because I like to cook. And you'd give me someone to cook for.
2. I'd have no problem with you having lots of nights out with the guys. Heck, I don't want to see you everyday anyways.
3. I don't need flowers, loves letters and romance. Unless you like that stuff, then I'll pretend to like it too.
4. You can oogle the pretty girl in the movie cause I'm probably doing the same thing.
5. I won't make you watch romantic comedies, in fact I'll be perfect happy with all around bloody violence.
6. I'll sit and watch you and your friends play video games for hours and honest to goodnessly have a good ol' time myself.

Luckily resumes don't usually list the negative things. :)

Lawschoolgonnabe

I met lawschoolgonnabe in my second year in my intro to Philosopy of Law class. Through the course of the year and the course of a couple really grueling courses we bonded. She's become a good friend truth be told and I look forward to classes with her for the next couple years. And possibly more after that. We share one a common thing: our desire to study law, an interest that started very early in life. Mine when I realized police officers needed better eye sight than mine and hers when she realized veterinarians had to put animals down.
Lawschoolgonnabe lives with her boyfriend, and her cat. She's orginally from a much bigger city than she currently finds herself in now and she can't wait to go back. She loves Starbucks, her boy, funny tv shows, good movies and big city life. She can work too jobs and go to school fulltime and still pull off amazing marks. She's one of the only people (a couple of the others to be introduced soon) that I feel I can carry on an intellectual conversation with and not feel like I'm just bs'ing my way through it and that I actually can have a valid and well argued point by the end.
She regularly tells me I'm cute, which is a nice thing to hear every once in awhile, though I think she mostly just finds my antics amusing and can't think of another word to describe it. She also regularly offers to lend me her boyfriend. Such as seeing a movie she wouldn't like but that I want to see but have no one to see it with and that her boyfriend wants to see. This amuses me greatly, however I am seriously thinking about taking her up on it sometime.
She's lawschoolgonnabe because she's going. She doesn't just want to go to law school. She IS going. I do not want to be anywhere near her when she gets a rejection letter, and law school that rejects her? Look out!

Smile!

Over at CuteOverload recently, there was a caption contest. I'd like to share the winning one, as it made me laugh lots.
