600TH POST!

I was very busy this last week and had no time to write you all, but I have a couple of hours so here I am.

Yes, this is post 600. I swear when I get to 1,000, there is going to be cake, and lots of it.

Meanwhile, it's Monday, which means crazy in my world at the moment. Get a load of my schedule for TODAY:

8 Out the door to the public library (that means walking a mile and a half)
8:30 Arrive at public library
12 Done at public library
12:00-12:05 Rubbing sunblock on my stupid European skin so I don't burn like I did earlier this summer.
12-12:20 Walking to the bus station ('nother 3/4 of a mile)
12:30 On bus
12:45 NCCU
1:00 Eat something I had with me all along
Sometime between 1 and 2: Get the sunblock washed off my face because it blocks my pores and gives me zits.
2:00 Meeting
2:10 Meeting over
2:10-5:00 TIME OFF? El gaspeth!
5:00-9:00 Work at SLIS, eat sometime in here
9:15 Catch the bus
10:10 Home again
10:10-10:30 Prep for tomorrow morning
10:30 Into bed because tomorrow we start over at the same time!

For those who thought summers were time off, guess again. I'm working harder than I did in spring and probably will in fall. August cannot arrive fast enough.

Meanwhile, I need a new backpack (my old one is tearing away across the top pocket), a new MP3 player (the current one has gone missing and is presumed stolen), new sunglasses (accidentally snapped mine in half), and if I keep going at this pace, new shoes.

Don't you just LOVE it when all your old stuff goes at the same time?

Yeah, so do I.

I think I'm done whining. Cue the balloons! Streamers! Wish I could have cake but my stomach's been acting freaky lately! YAY!

Ta,
Bec
