The Cat’s Meow

I just wanted to write a quick post.  I have good news, but I haven’t had much time lately to write about it.

I had been looking for work since my last company closed the office where I was working back in March.  I hadn’t been looking really hard through the first part of the Summer Session because I was taking day classes and didn’t figure I’d find anyplace willing to work around that schedule. 

Last Thursday I finished up Summer Session A and managed to score an interview the same day with a fairly prestigious law firm.  I would be helping out with real estate closings, mostly large commercial transactions.  Friday I was offered the job and accepted.  The benefits sound excellent and the salary they offered me off the bat was higher than I expected.  I start today.

I also found out on Friday that I got A’s in both of my classes for Summer Session A, so I got a 4.0 again.  I also start Summer Session B classes tonight.  This session I’m taking Statistics and Speech.  I’m back to the work all day and go to school all night hectic schedule. 

I’ll have to write more about it later if I can.  Right now I need some coffee and I have to finish getting ready for my first day at my new job.  :jap:

Normally I don’t get into reality shows.

But here’s a show I could really get into!
:biglaugh: :meow:

Well, I’m still alive in case anyone was wondering.  I just haven’t felt like writing much lately.  Plus I think I was getting bored with blogging there for a while. 

School has kept me pretty busy lately.  So far I have an “A” average in my math class and a “B” in my Spanish II class.  I’m hoping to bring the “B” up if possible.  I just would prefer to have all “A”s if possible.

The last several days I just haven’t felt very motivated about much of anything.  We’ve been fairly broke and hubby being sick for almost 2 weeks didn’t help.  I’m just glad he’s better now.  At least I’ve been able to carpool to school most days, so that has helped out some.  The truck is running a bit rough and we just don’t have the money right now to take it to the mechanic.

Last weekend we noticed that one of Priestess’s (my Persian cat) pupils stayed a bit dilated in the sun.  We were worried she might have suffered a stroke.  She was acting normal and the eye didn’t seem to bother her, but it worried me quite a bit.  I decided to take her to the vet last week to get checked out.  My tooth had still been hurting and I had thought about going to the dentist.  Then this happened with the cat and the cat’s health is more important to me than my tooth hurting.  They did some bloodwork on her to the tune of $150.  Everything came back normal.  I was thankful for that but then I was still concerned about what was wrong with her eye.  Two days later I noticed the pupil was normal and no longer dilated.  I have no idea what caused it, but it seems to be fine now.  The vet still wants to see her in about 3 weeks to check on her again, so I will still take her then just to make sure all is okay. 

Strangely enough my tooth quit hurting.  It did this before so I have no clue why it sometimes bothers me so much.  I’m just glad that at least the cat’s eye and my tooth seem to have fixed themselves for the time being.  Now if only the truck would do that…

There has been a lot of talk about today’s date 6/6/06.  I wanted to see the remake of “The Omen”, but I wasn’t going to try to see it today.  I noticed that the town of Hell, which is in Michigan, I think, was having some type of celebration and selling T-shirts and a square inch of land in Hell.  I guess that means that Hell does sometimes freeze over if it’s up north.  :biglaugh:  I just want a T-shirt that says I’ve been to Hell and back.  I wonder if they sell one like that? 

Funny names of towns always crack me up.  We don’t seem to have too many in Florida, except for Two Egg, Florida.  I asked my mother about Hot Coffee, MS and GoodFood, MS and she hadn’t heard of them.  I know there were some funny town names in Texas, but I can’t seem to recall any of them right now.

Ah well, I’m just bored and don’t really have anything much to write about.  Other than studying, I’ve been playing around with some freestyle rap.  It seems I always find some new hobby or interest to keep me occupied for a bit.  Right now I’m just really tired.  I haven’t slept well the last few nights for some reason and since I have two tests this week, I doubt I will get a whole lot of sleep until the weekend comes.

I guess I’d better go start dinner since hubby will be home soon.  I hope everyone else is doing well and I’ll try to visit some of your blogs soon.  I have been a bit low on energy lately.  Hopefully I’m not coming down with something.  There’s nothing worse than catching a cold in the summer, it seems.  Ugh…

Well, that’s all for now.
