It Is Finished...

School is done, well, its been done for over a week now. My brain is starting to think and function normally again (I almost typed the f-word as I was writing "function"...oops :) Anyway, I got my first C...EVER...in a class. I didn't care as much as I always thought I would. I also got an F, well, not really, I'm almost positive I should have an A, but that's what my report card said. I totally freaked out, called the college, and spoke to a nice lady who said that I wouldn't even hear back until after January 5th. Sigh...that's quite a while. This professor was one of my 2 douche-bag professors this semester.

We had our Little Lites Christmas performance yesterday and it was totally awesome! The kids all sang and danced like pros. No one ran off the stage, which was a first.

Michelle is gone...this makes me sad. I found her blue hooded sweater today in the classroom...that made me even more sad.

I had 2 tall decaf pumpkin spice soy lattes today. 1 from myself, 1 from my lover, and also a chai from my friend Mindy. I love Starbucks. I also love it when people bring me starbucks :)

Ellie is sleeping and Ben is playing his Xbox...once he starts, he has to finish the level, otherwise his progress won't be saved. He's been playing a lot lately. It doesn't bother me except when I'm running around the house in the morning trying to get everyone out the door on time and he's standing 2 feet from the screen like a cute little boy trying to complete the level. Sigh, boys and their toys... :)

Procrastination.....

I'm taking a momentary break between essay #1 that is due tomorrow (which I just wrote and submitted), and essay #2 (that is also due tomorrow).  I have 5 more quizzes to take by Saturday (I have not read any of the chapters yet...not that I ever do) and a lab report due Friday.  AND...this is not even finals week!!!!  

This is the first time in my school career that I can ever remember hoping for "just a B"....I would be SOOOOO happy to get a B or better in all 5 of my classes.  I don't know if it's that I'm just "settling", or if it's that I've realized that A's are not all they've cracked up to be...probably a combination of both.

I just heard the garage...Ben's home...I'd better post this and pretend to be working and NOT procrastinating :)
