Thanks to everyone who has been patient or threw me some while I was absentee.

Happy belated Easter to anyone I didn't mention it to. For now, cheers!

So, suffice it say, I have been lacking in the logging ins and updatings, but that does not mean I have neglected to look in on my peeps. And after consuming about two bottles of cough syrup, about 35 lozenges, and half a pack of antihistamines, I am ALMOST better. You know, since it's only going on almost four weeks now. I haven't been this sick in so many consecutive days since the chicken pox (except with less Nintendo playing, hehe).

And school starts on Monday, LOL! Huzzah again.

I suppose that stuff like this especially strikes a cord with me lately because of the hospital, and I'm feeling especially sentimental today. It's just not right when the good die young and will never get to see their kids grow up (or grow up as kids themselves). Really gives you a more appreciative perspective on things. This post is for every good, decent person whose time among us was tragically cut all too short. I can only hope there truly is a better place to go after this...

Also, I'm gonna go on the record and say that I really don't like Tootsie Rolls. Call me crazy, but they taste about as much like the little pieces of tubular crap that they physically resemble. I only mention this because a whole bowl of them has been staring at me this week. And, probably, due in part to that whole sleep-deprevation thing.

It's probably time for a nap now, hehehe... ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/9701287/ http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/9701287/ Sat, 12 Aug 2006 10:58:54 PDT
In the meantime, let me just say "WOO!!!" I am now officially a grad student! After weeks of sweating it, I am in. SO RELIEVED. And my credit score is so good, I was able to get a non-FAFSA related loan that will cover ALL my school-related expenses for the next year without needing a cosigner.

Celebration will most likely consist of FINALLY going to see 'Clerks 2.' And perhaps some drinking of some kind, hehe.

Updates to follow! Um...soon. Or something kinda like soon, hehehe. ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/9551848/ http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/9551848/ Mon, 31 Jul 2006 08:40:36 PDT

So, yeah, suffice it to say that everything I have done to get into a Master's program this fall has been met with major resistance**:

1. My boss says she'll write me a letter of recommendation and I tell the school to expect it from her. Instead, she leaves for vacation and passes it along to another of my superiors that I don't particularly care for (there's about 6 or more total...think 'Office Space') and I have to call up and let them know that it's coming from someone else so tehy can change the paperwork and my application doesn't get further delayed. Nothing super bad, just annoying. Of course, this doesn't even have anything to do with the fact that our owner is leaving this week and goodness knows what will happen to our financially flailing company from here on out...

2. I have to put together a 15 slide protfolio of my artwork. Again, not awful, but getting the lighting and positioning just right for some of my 3D stuff had my eyes twitching and my hands shaking after 20+ minutes of stressing it. But hey, I got it done, right? Whoops, the camera place informs me that the film SAID it was color, but the negatives are actually for black and white. D'OH! Guess what I get to do (and PAY FOR! Gah, slides are damn expensive!) again? But when I retake and reprint and repay for more, I'll post those up. Delays, delays.

3. The bane of all existence, unless you're some kind of spoiled heir/heiress, mayyouallburninhell...MONEY! As in, I work my ass off 4-5 days a week and where is mine? And what if I don't get into school this fall and I have to start paying back those undergrad loans!? Boo.


**For those of you I haven't been keeping up to date, I was supposed to start in the spring, but then they cancelled spring admissions to my program with little warning and so now, unless I want to put off school for a whole year--I don't--I need to get in gear and kiss whomever's ass(es?) I need to to get in pronto.


In other news, I let my supervisor at the hospital down this week while she was on vacation and, more than that, I may have disappointed the kids. I feel horrible. A power outtage knocked out our power and, consequently, my alarm. I slept through my shift!!! The worst part is that there may have been no one else there that day who could have opened the playroom and visited the children. I was kicking myself for days. I still am.

And, nothing to cry over, but can the new puppy please stop making glorified chew toys out of my possessions? Like those silver shoes I loved? Please???


So now, back to work on all the things that I should have gotten done by now but, for various reasons, haven't. Ppfffhhhlllt! ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8775370/ http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8775370/ Mon, 15 May 2006 06:27:18 PDT
But first, I think I need a nap...


P.S. Don't get Senator Durbin to speak at your commencement. The phrases "remember 9/11" and "weapons of mass destruction" were actually used. Granted, I don't disagree with some of what was said, but isn't that lecture just a bit old hat five years later? Save the preaching for your soapbox, sir, not people who are giving you a free, honorary degree. ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8628768/ http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8628768/ Sun, 30 Apr 2006 08:32:35 PDT



Maybe it's just me. ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8365932/ http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8365932/ Tue, 04 Apr 2006 16:48:34 PDT
#2, each time I hear "Everytime We Touch" by Cascade, I can't help but wonder where the DDR pad is, even though I am still clearly sitting in my car.

#3, "Stupid Girl," by Pink, rocks.

#4, I need to win the lottery or something. Like, yesterday. I am not looking forward to post-graduation loan repayment. >_<

#5, various phrases you hear while working at a car dealership/repair shop that sound dirty, but they're not:
"They had to jump it."
"It was overheating because it wasn't properly lubricated, so we greased it up."
"You can whack it however you want and it's guaranteed not to show any damage."
"The constant friction can cause it to wear down and crack."
And last, but not least:
"We mounted the rear end for ya." ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8221763/ http://SupernaturalBlonde.deviantart.com/journal/8221763/ Mon, 20 Mar 2006 21:00:24 PST So, I found a bit o' time to log in again, and I'll doing a bit of revamping, taking some old stuff down; putting other stuff up. I'll have to put together a 15-piece slide portfolio for my graduate school application, so once I get that together a couple months down the road I'll probably scan and post some of that on here, too. Actually, I can't wait to start. My first real (and, egads, expensive!!!!1!!1!!!11!!!one!) step towards getting paid to do what I really want to dedicate my whole life to doing. So, yay!
In the meantime, I'll throw that aforementioned random stuff up here now and then. Just sit tight. ^_~ ]]> ~SupernaturalBlonde
