two quick things, both GOOD:

1. i got into my other class that i needed, you know, the required one. yeah.

2. the prof’s forcing me to leave my husband TMRW…. “it is in your best interest to be here…Lucy, I really encourage you to locate reasonably-priced accomodation for tomorrow night. You will miss a lot of material if you are not in the first class.” grrrreat.

yay, academia. woohoo

heheh jk. ps. who goes to class during drop/add…?!

the world of academia is a total crock. i’m a little perturbed at present because the university of alabama dropped my schedule, cancelled my classes for the fall, and nearly dropped me out of fall enrollment. after a whole day of freaking out and calling the school, the dean, the secretary, my mama, and grant, i got two of my three classes back, and am hopeful to get the third (and REQUIRED class) by tmrw. here’s hoping.

O Academia
you are so full of it
you dropped all my classes
and left me with no exit.

O Academia
you really tick me off
and sometimes when i think of you
i laugh so hard i cough.

O Academia
I can’t wait ’till we’re through
but then again i might be back–
to law school! ‘touchet!’ to you.

that was so so bad, but it kinda perked up my stupid stressful day.

ps. anyone else hate school? anyone?

ok. so i have a new addiction… twitter.com. please, if you love me, you’ll join me in this.

it’s just like sending a text to all your friends letting them know little snippets of your day between blog posts and emails, but it’s online instead of cell phone.

find me and follow me. it’s really fun, and really addicting [i believe this is the sort of justification high schoolers use; disregard this and do it anyway. if you love me you’ll do it… wait, that’s another one. shoot.]

oh, no. i’m hooked….

ok. so i’m babysitting ava, the cutest thing ever!!! and its great. our schedule is pretty awesome: watch 101 dalmatians, snack, play leapfrog’s leapster, snack, color, lunch [grant comes home for lunch! yay!], play hide-and-seek, snack, go to the pool, snack (you get the picture). anyway, when grant comes home, we have a great time. ava has a pretty amazing crush on him and loves to make him chase her around and pick her up, etc.

so yesterday grant and i decide to sing a camp song to teach ava–full on hand motions and butt-shaking involved. pretty sweet. in the middle of the song, ava jumps up on the bed, starts shaking her butt in a three-point position singing BABY GOT BACK! O.M.G. grant and i lost it. we couldn’t breathe when we finally peeled ourselves off the floor. and there’s ava, on the bed just shakin’ it, “i like big butts and i cannot lie, you other brothers cannot deny! mmm mmmm mmmmm mmm big thing in your face you get sprung!” it was amazing. her mom later told me that it’s on the shrek soundtrack. hehehehehhehehe. wow.

anyway. ava’s awesome.

oh, and since you asked, yes, we’ve now watched 101 dalmatians 5 times in 3 days. xoxox

ps. several small but GREAT things this week:
1. after working 2 jobs for 2 months, i have 3 DAYS TO DO NOTHING!
2. i’m making bank babysitting one of my favorite little girls a few days this week and next
3. ava (the little girl) and her parents came over last night to see our place
4. wes turner stayed with us last night! we had so much fun, cooking, telling funny stories, and repeating favorite pick-up lines… way too much fun. glad he and grant are such good buds.
5. i think i’m skipping the drop/add part of school, so i won’t start driving till august 27th instead of the 20th.
6. katrin and michael (two AWESOME friends from germany) are coming to visit and grant and i get to play with them at the lake two weeks from now
7. kelly and john and the baby are doing GREAT! so excited for them and loving that all are in good giggling health.
8. the wedding, again, was so much fun. well done.
