End of semester and other rambles

OK not a long blog today – hehe – going crazy – my three college courses end around the 12 of May plus my online VHS high school course – their projects are due the 8th so I have a buttload of grading - which is always hard and slow for me – and finishing up other things with in the next few weeks – DAMMMMMMMNNNN and PHEWWWWWW and I am so celebrating when this semester is over – it has been very long for a number of reasons related to work changes, social changes, family changes and just a lot of stuff

Saw Meet the Robinsons last night – it was cute – little one and I had the run of the theater for a bit, the theater overall was empty – I guess with no big releases yet no one is up for a Sunday movie – but I liked the music – also started teaching little one how to throw popcorn up and catch it with your tongue - hehe ahhh those important life skills you pass on… next week I am teaching her the all important skills of sliding down a banister (hehe j/k that is not until she is 7 ;-)

Took my environmental class on a field trip Saturday – we did coastal environments

First stop was the Wetlands Institute and we played in the mud, I mean studied the hydric soil an important part of said environment (and why marshes and such stink – hehe awww science taking the mystical fantasy out of things like why sunsets are red and orange, why the sky is blue and why marshes smell like rotten icky eggs). But we then stopped in Ocean City looking at beach barrier islands. Next Saturday we have another trip to Wissahickon.

My swirly, twisty, spaceyness has been raging lately :-P I have been noticing many odd things of late – I need to write some of these down one of these days, like the local Burger King having stickers on the doors so as you go out it says Buh-Bye – haha that one made me laugh out loud in the restaurant and even got a few stares….

Been thinking about May 19th of late – I know I shouldn't and it will be 3 years so things should be healed and settled– but still – funny how the Pink song I really like right now, Who Knew uses 3 years in the lyrics as well….. so lots of retrospectiveness about that which fuels other thoughts and how I act and such….

Got my ticket for my sister's b-party – sister one is taking sister 2 to Vegas for sister 2's 30th – as a surprise, sister 1 wanted me to come, so the three of us are hitting Vegas (sister one does not even speak to sister 3 any more, sister 1 was the one who did not invite sister 3 to her wedding, so that is why it is just the three of us and not all four sisters) – but yeah I got my plane ticket – plus as a surprise and extra special (sister 2 been having a lot of bad stuff, I mean a lot of stuff happen to her the last while) well sister 2 has this thing and well we wanted to do this special thing so we are. Hehe

plus we are staying in the Imperial Palace which is like mid strip – we are all interested in like flair bartending and the little local lounge acts (the ones sooooo bad they are good – haha the ones that are free and the more alcohol you consume the better they get type – I love those and will get my craving for lounge acts satiated I hope) – also sister 1 is like big into country so we have to go to Toby Keith's bar – hehe – and sister 2 and I do not gamble really but we found these cool dice games in New York New York and plan on gambling a little (NY NY also has an awesome piano bar with great music – dueling pianos and also the main bar in the casino has a stage over the bar and bands play – hehe I ALWAYS FIND MUSIC – ALWAYS)

But that should be nice and fun and wheee : )
