Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Poor kitty!
Gronk. Just finished an hour and a half of work. With any luck, I'll be able to work for another three or four hours during the day.
I think I've given up on this sleep thing. Naps. Frequent naps. That'll do for now. Though I admit to being cranky today despite my nap when Paul kept dozing off this evening, on account of having taken the entire Sunday night/Monday morning shift and letting him sleep. Once I finally got my evening nap, I was willing to concede that he had every right to still be tired, even if he didn't have to get up in the middle of the night.
Oh, Raquel! Poor kitty! Poor kitties!
Hope you got some sleep, Plei.
I am up at this crazy hour, because I have a Psychology final at 8am. Yippy!
Sleep? Sleep?
I've been enjoying my me-time, but I fear I will have to give up and crash shortly.
but I fear I will have to give up and crash shortly.
Understandably so!
I have gone through the study sheet for the exam today (yes...I basically waited till this morning to study). There are only a few definitions that I couldn't easily define, and even less concepts that I couldn't easily explain to myself.
There were parts of this course that were tough to get a handle on, but because of that, some of the information felt like it was beat into us. So, I have a pretty good grasp of the material, which is good. I figured I wouldn't need much studying after the two days of review in class last week - I knew everything we were talking about. I had to resist raising my hand to answer every question that she asked :)
Ok...I'm off for my final. Any extra ~ma lying around from 8:00-9:30am would be greatly appreciated!
exam-ma, oh bugalicious one!

You adapt. Or at least, I've adapted. Mostly. I now no longer thirst for 8 straight hours of sleep the way a bum thirsts for Thunderbird. I'm happy, nay, thrilled, with 4 hours together. And I'm finally completely functional while awake, something I haven't been since the second trimester.
Of course, I do occasionally just shut down at random times and wake up an hour later, but I did that before Mal also, although usually only at work. And Mal is sleeping 6-7 hours straight at night now (oh wonderful child!)
So it gets better.
Robert's doing less well. He sort of vapor-locked last night. Of course, he was reading his assignment at the time:
"In order to prepare your learning plan, you should address the following questions:
- What are your goals?
- Whom are you now?
"
This school emphasizes accuracy and grammatical correctness over and over, and besides errors in the print materials, they've misspelled "Curriculum" on their website.
(Now I'm sure I've misspelled everything in this post, since I usually do while bagging on other people.)
Oh my. I am done with my exam. And I was trying SO hard to go slowly and not be the first one done. Oh well. Didn't work.
It was EASY, though!
Ha, I was just going to wish you exam~ma and you're already done! Yay for easy exams.
Raquel, that's really good of you to fix those cats. When we moved into the place we're now moving out of, a colony of feral cats were living under the house, one of whom had kittens of her own. We trapped them and took them to the SCA, I like to think they all got homes. Two of them we got fixed and de-mited and shot full of vaccines and brought back to be "outside cats", one of them still comes to our window and asks for food. I don't think we can move her, though. For one thing, trapping her is really hard. And for anotehr, we're only supposed to have two pets at the new place so we already have an illicit cat just with the ones that are really ours. And we're a block away from the interstate, so if she freaks and tries to find her way back home, that could be very bad.
Whoot! Yay for easy exams, vw.
And Mal is sleeping 6-7 hours straight at night now (oh wonderful child!)
Wonderful, wonderful child, indeed. Poor Robert.
-t, when do you move into your new place? How are things going with your current, and thankfully soon-to-be-former landlord?
We've gotten the keys already, and moved a few boxes in. The power will be on tomorrow, so we'll move the perishables then. We're hiring movers to do the actual lifting of furniture and so forth, and that'll probably happen in about a week. I had trouble falling asleep last night because I kept thinking about exactly how I should pack up my kitchen. Silly brain.
I haven't heard anything from the current landlord, though I'm told that someone is going to come measure for new carpets today. As long as there isn't an eviction notice pinned to my door when I get home, I'm happy. I think DH may have come to some sort of understanding with the landlord. He's better at that than I am.
