No week off between terms this time around. School starts up again Tuesday. I have classes on Tuesday and Thursday for the next 12 weeks. It will be challenging, but not nearly as frenzied as the last 13 weeks.
Getting pretty close to the end of the program. I'm ready to graduate. Really ready. Ultra ready.
It snowed here in Portland, a few days ago. It has not warmed up. so there is ice left in patches all around the city. The roads are clear for the most part. I have to keep scraping my windows. And the biting cold reminds me a little of Alaska. Nearly makes me homesick, but then I remind myself that I haven't had to shovel snow in over a decade now.
Had a nice weekend out and about. Nothing major, but it was nice not to have to do any homework at all. That will change pretty quickly though.
My dog is cute, but not too smart. He is a very black dog. Black doesn't shouldn't lay in direct sunlight. In the summer he has a habit of laying in the back yard, in direct sunlight, panting because he is so hot. Duh!
This weekend, he's been sitting in the back yard, in the 20 degree weather. Doesn't want to come in. Just sits there.
Egads. It is too cold for me out there, crazy dog! Since he won't come in on his own accord, I have to go out there and drag his ass in. Sheesh!
The iDog I got for Christmas seems to eat batteries. Good thing I'm feeding him re-chargables. He has so far scrolled through being a disco dog, a jive dog, a rock dog, a country dog. Today, he is back to a rock dog. Odd little toy. We'll see how long he lasts. I haven't killed it yet.
Hopefully the new tree in the back yard survives the winter.
If you listen to the winter news casts around hear you'd think we were in the midst of the apocalypse.
It is just cold solid water, honest. It'll go away in spring.
We hope, anyway.
