My thoughts are with you and your brother, Guns.

Still saying a mishaberach for Atarah ben Yehudit at Torah readings, Guns.

Someone stole a grape of mine.

Waddley did it. And then she stole a second one.

She probably ate them.

I'm feeling great! Starting to finally enjoy my summer, now that my body is on the way to recovery. I'm currently 154 pounds, and I'm filling out pretty darn well--not just the tummy area. I suppose my taste for constant exercise has helped me in that.

I'm also going to take a shorter schedule this fall: maybe four classes on Monday-Wednesday-Friday and no classes on Tuesday-Thursdays. I think that'd be the best. I keep working myself too hard; I need to remember that college is a vacation, relative to the real world.

Yay LF! That is so good to hear.

So far, today is better than yesterday. But, I've only been up for about an hour. That's as late as I've slept in in a long time. I guess I needed that.

Hyperception just helped me switch out the phone cord I use for my dial-up access, as the phone jack is behind my dresser. Many Watchers have heard me complain about constant booting as well as slow connection. Well yesterday I kept getting an error message that the modem had no dial-tone. Rebooting helped yesterday, but not this morning, so he suggested we try a new cord.

The modem worked as soon as we switched the lines and so far my connection seems stable. Maybe I'll be able to try joining in Literati again...

***edit three minutes later***

Spoke too soon. The connection is as unreliable as ever...

Sometimes I wonder why I bother opening my mouth in the first place.

Edit: See? Completely the wrong way to put it. I'm no good at expressing myself, and when I try I somehow say things that really aren't much like what I actually think...

I think I missed what you initially said, Murrin. But I can totally relate to what you wound up saying.

God damn. I just lost my place in the Astrophysics course because the university refuses to accept my deferrment. Deferrment is only for people just finishing high school.

Posted: **Mon Jul 02, 2007 12:25 am**

I'm in a foul mood.

I am tired of thinking! Kinda tired of everything....

Oh...and I'm three days cigarette free...so please, ignore me!

Financial aid deferrment, Lore? Or another kind? Paul has had to deal with financial deferrment every semester. While I am sure University there is very different, if there is any guidance he can give you just let me know.

I am so sorry, either way.

Sea, you are hereby given grace to be tired of thinking. Stay strong on quitting smoking. We are all pulling for you!

Thanks. It's because the new job is full time. At the end of the 3month contract, I will be going part time so I can study.

So it's a deferrment on when to start the course? OK, let me see what is done here, and see if it can help you in anyway.

Back again...

Lore, Paul wants to know if this program will let you sign up for one fundamental course in the program, possibly even a distance learning course done via the internet, so you do actually begin on your original start date. Then, when you can switch to the part time hours at work, you can add more courses.

Is that feasible at your school?

Fundamentals at the start, then streams follow in years 2 and 3. But I cant study while working full time. I will have to wait until start of next year.

Posted: **Mon Jul 02, 2007 1:29 am**

Not even one class? Begin the program part time while working full time?

Damn is right. Frustrating.
