My uneventful weekend...

I guess I need to update... I had a pretty good weekend. Made good money Friday and Saturday night! Always a plus, however I didn’t get much sleeep... but this is the usual for the last few weeks. I stopped by to see a friend on my way home Saturday night... It was nice to talk to someone and not hold anything back. Nice to not have to hide who I am, and what I have been through....It was therapeutic.... I spoke of things that I have not been able to talk about to anyone, and when I got home, and finally got to sleep, I did not any have nightmares.

Sunday was a good day, I slept in till 1230, and got up and was very productive.... We cleaned, and did laundry most of the day... Then I finally got to hang out with Larry. He came and helped, well actually he trimmed my trees, and I helped (that’s more like it). Then we rented movies, and made dinner.... The boyfriend came over to meet mom, and I think by Larry being there it wasn't soooo awkward. He seemed a little nervous, but who wouldn't be, he was meeting two of the most Important and influential people in my life. And I told him if Draco didn’t like him he was out... LOL... after giving him bad directions, yeah he ended up in Reliegh, it turned out to be a pretty good night. I walked him to his car, and he mentioned that if I was up for it he would come by to see me on Friday after my surgery, but if not he would come by Saturday. I thought that was pretty nice!

We watched a pretty good movie called Ned Kelly, Bonnie I think you’d like it, it was about Irish people in Australia... true story, very sad ending. Then Larry kicked my butt in cards, Rummy 500... Twice (ouch) *Pause to swallow pride* and finally went to bed at like 12... though I did not sleep very well. I am worried about Friday. I called the doctors office to find out which way he was planning on doing things, and apparently he wanted to just do a local block... I am awaiting a phone call to find out if we can get an operating room, to do general anesthetic, (apparently they can not do that in the office.) They really kind of dragged their feet about it, aggravates me, because he makes his money either way, and if this would make me more comfortable then what is the problem… they did not even offer me my options. I had to research it on my own, and bring it to their attention! Sort of ticked me off.

I went to the school last Friday, and spoke with an academic advisor, who sent me to the transcript office... where they had figured my transcripts wrong, go figure, so after that was sorted out, my all college cumulative GPA is a 2.99, with a 4.0 from Santa Fe’. I also spoke with an old teacher, who also teaches at UF, and he was astounded that they declined my application. He told me to call and get an appeal started, and he would not only write a letter, but also hand deliver it. Made me feel good, that he thought that much of me as a student that he would go out of his way for me... So I am currently awaiting a phone call from the lady in admissions.... All this waiting makes me nervous. But se la ve right...

I took my trig test, and did not do poorly on it, but I did not do as well as I usually do. I earned an 82.... Alas, something else to stress about. I have to do really well on these next two tests in order to maintain my GPA. I think I strive to maintain my personal best in school, because it is my way of proving to my self that I am worth it. Does that make any sense? I know it seems silly to some, but it is maybe the way I validate myself... I don’t know... I have been doing a lot of thinking lately, perhaps even psycho-analyzing myself... I will write about this another day.

Well toddles.... I believe this novel should keep my loving readers happy for now… LOL!
