I've not heard of them sj, but UoP is great, if you're seriously thinking of online programs. I love it, Suzi (I think) loves it, and there's one other Buffista (though I am a bad Empress and can't remember who) who went through it as well.

UoP doesn't have the program I want, unfortunately, and actually this school is cheaper, which is a plus.

Ah.

UoP is not cheap, that is for sure. And yes, I love it - though I have my moments (such as having a paper due today that I haven't started on). The number of programs available seems to grow each time I check - so who knows.

I love finding my own typos way after the fact. A bab!mom. Hmmmm. Interesting.

I don't feel like a bad mom, though I do feel as though CJ has been having to take the back seat to all the running around we are doing for K-Bug right now. I'm trying hard to make sure he is not feeling left out/left behind.

Although it's Lindsey/Connor that I find more compelling - Connor is like the physical incarnation of all Lindsey's Angel AND Darla issues. Hot, cute, powerful, screwed up all to hell and could totally break Lindsey into a million tiny pieces. And Lindsey's not much older than Cordelia, after all.

Good lord, I think Fay just broke me. I'm sure Christian Kane's voice in my headphones didn't help, either.

Morning, y'all!! Had to skip. Long weekend, involving a Mustang convertible, crazy-ass people, a cowboy hat, and getting to meet the incomparably beautiful Lilli-bean for the first time (AND getting to see her loverly parents and Pete). Also, whisky (once I got home). Hugs, hairpats, YAY!s, as appropriate.

Alsoalso, the Czech Republic is SPANKING the US football team. SPANKING.

So, we've got another playoff game tonight. We're playing the only other undefeated team, The Rockies, which for maximum dramatic effect is the team composed of half my team from last year, and also the team that gave us our most painful loss (17 runs to come from behind in the last inning).

If we win, we go directly to the championships where we'd have to lose twice in a row to keep from winning the trophy. If we lose...we're back in the pack and have more games.

Playoff rules are different and I don't like it as much. We're basically riding Reed's coattails at this point, and it feels like much less of a team effort. Reed goes out and throws three unhittable innings and that's a huge advantage. And we've been seduced into letting him roam pretty far into the outfield from shortstop to make a lot of catches because - he's just that good. He's barely ten, but he could be playing for some JV teams.

Also in the playoffs you don't have to play everybody equally so our less-good players are playing less. They have to play some, but it's not the equal distribution of the regular season.

::sigh::

It's making the winning less fun.

Oh well, it's over after this week. Then Emmett's just playing with the Tournament team, which I think he actually enjoys better.

Pardon me as a dance the happy dance through the thread!

My alternative student loan (which will pay for me living by myself in my very own apartment next year) has been conditionally approved! They just have to verify dad's employment and my school registration, and it looks like we're good to go!

I'm so excited!

So, I had that kickass meeting on the first. They said they would get back to me in about a week to a week in a half. It's been eleven days. I just called to check on things and the gentleman I had the meeting with wasn't available to speak to me. I'm trying to be positive about it, but failing miserably.

My negotiation for a higher salary was unsucessful. God, why do I suck so much at this?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I'm having a Bad Day.

t puts aside personal bitterness for a mo'

YAY VW!
