March 28th, 2008

Hard to believe that it’s already April. Or, that it will be on Tuesday. It seems like March flew by rather quickly. In some ways I like that, since March wasn’t a very exciting month. I don’t have much going on in the next little while. I’m pretty much just waiting for my acceptance (or denial) letter from Texas Woman’s University. I’ve got an online info session to go tomorrow, which should be pretty informative. At least I’ll know what to expect if I get into the program. I called today and asked to find out if all my application was received, and they had the wrong social and they didn’t match up my Kings transcript and my maiden name even though I put that in my application. Anyways, me calling made things click for them so I’m hoping that might speed up my application process. They said it would be between 3 and 4 weeks, so I’m looking forward to that! I can’t wait to find out so that we can start making some more definite plans, whichever way that it goes.

I’ll be wrapping up my March reading materials in a couple days. I’m anxious to find out what my total is for the month, but I don’t want to check before my wrap-up so it doesn’t make me rush through books just to get through them. I like to savor books, which is sort of incongruous to reading a large volume of books.

I wish that I had more to say in these things. My life seems more boring in print than it is in actuality. It seems more like I’m too busy living it to do much else. Work is crazy, I’ve been working nonstop lately. Which is definitely made easier with the fact that Facebook and Amazon and many other sites are now blocked by Harris County. I’ve been having to make notes for myself to message people later when I think of something I need to tell them! My new Treo is perfect for that though, I must say. One thing that I’m really glad to announce is that I’m not so miserable at my job these days. I can truthfully say that right now, the absolute worst part is having to get up early in the morning, but few jobs would be able to accommodate my sleeping in schedule. And it’s true, I have a lot less time now to do the things I’d like (read, exercise, cook) but we are saving a lot right now and hopefully we’ll be in a house by January 1st. The plan is to start looking in May, so we’ve got two more months of saving to go right now. I’m really excited about the idea of having our first house. And I’m excited about graduate school.

We’re planning a road trip to Florida in November for a wedding, so I’m also excited about that! Lots of stuff happening in 2008, but none of it just yet, so I need to sit tight until May. Wee!
