Update:

We went to court on Wednesday morning to fight the fact that WE were ticketed when some idiot 18 year old slammed into us on I-95 and rear-ended us, in the rental car, an hour after we picked it up, exactly a week after we were t-boned. Fantastic. So anyway, the kid showed up and lied his ass off, and since the supposed witness never showed up, the judge said he needed to sleep on it. Today we got the verdict. We were found NOT GUILTY! about freaking time. So hopefully now they insurance will realize this and hold the kid liable, and make him pay enterprise and our deductible.

Well, it's been 6.5 weeks, and my degree still isn't here yet. This is somewhat concerning, since David's came last week, so I may need to starting calling the school soon. In other news though...

You are now looking at Rissman's newest secretary! Hells yeah! Today I got my cubicle with my desk and my computer and my phone, with my very own extension. :) Super happy! Had a meeting with my attorney today and he was MUCH more friendly than last time. Everyone is being very supportive and offering help if I ever need it. And it went from 7.5 hours a week that I'll be doing it, to 20 hours a week, which means more money. Yay! Super excited! In 90 days I'll have a review to get a better raise.

And Happy Birthday to my mom yesterday, and to my baby nephew, Micah on the 10th!

David's degree!

Yay! So I forgot to mention it, but David's degree finally arrived in the mail two days ago! Yay! He's officially officially a graduate! Mine hasn't come yet, but it should be soon. Oh, and I'm in the process of applying to grad school. Today I've got to write my little essay stating what my career goals are and why I think and MS will help to achieve them, and I need to go to the library and get a few study books for the GRE, which I need to take sometime either this month or next month so that I can have my application completed and turned in by Dec. 1st, which is the deadline for Spring admission. I'm pretty excited tho! Yay!

So we're back...

from Jacksonville and Tampa and had a great trip. It was much needed and there was a lot of excitement. There is so much to do now though. We've got so much cleaning to do in this house. Two rooms are clean, but we've got clothes everywhere from the trips, dishes need to be done (but we can't because of shortage on water because of the stupid Fay). We've been out of work the past two days due to this crap storm, but my mood has been all off with the storm. I really need to clean tho. I did however get to catch up on all my shows from the past two weeks. I've got to do an assignment for class tonight before midnight, but that won't take any time at all. I've been thinking a lot and watching stupid shows and being around pregnant people, and am really wanting to start trying sometime in the next year or so. We'll see. We've just gotta get everything under control first. We're on a good path though. We're 23 years old, own our own house, a beautiful 3/2/2 on .38 acres in Sherwood Estates. We have two dogs, 5 vehicles, full-time jobs, and are finally college graduates with our BS degrees, which should arrive in the mail any day now. :) I'm starting modeling again, which should bring in a little bit more money. I'm just so excited even thinking about starting a family, and thinking about Christmas coming up and just what that would be like in the future. Agh. Just so much going through my head recently.

And we're off...

Got to Jacksonville at 3am this morning, and much to our surprise (we were expecting to not even be able to line up until 5am, let alone even get a wristband) we were allowed to go right in, and got registered. We were in and out in 5 minutes. In about 2 hours, we're heading back to get in line for the actual auditions. It outta be pretty crazy with people and I'm not really looking forward to that part, and I'm still struggling with songs. It's definitely going to be 'Lean on Me' and I think 'Against All Odds' by Mariah Carey. Not sure about the third. We'll see. I also need to learn 'Get Ready' and 'Walking on Sunshine'. Agh. Just did my makeup, and am getting ready to do my hair. Kind of thinking I'm not actually going to end up going to bed at all, which sucks. I'm going to be dead tomorrow.

Fixed

Apparently a theme-upgrade I recently did made the comments and such stop working. Not leaving comments here myself much, I wasn't aware of it too immediately. Finally took the time to look into it, and it should be all fixed now.

We Finished!

Yay! We both officially graduated, and yes, I mean BOTH! He got a C and I got a B. I think we're still planning to take down the teacher though, but we'll see. Either way, we BOTH graduated!!! Yay! I couldn't be happier!
