the weekend update: 12-6

From KB's
Bakers Dozen c/o ej.

1. played hooky on Friday:: Frankly, being a single mom of a disabled child has those moments of excruciating stress - accompanied by the similarly leveled headache. I worked on school-related projects instead...


2. skipped class:: I'm also over the grad school lust. I know I've whined about this before, but this problem is spiraling at this point. I'm just feeling put upon, lusting after a social life, and not wanting to bust my a$$ so my employer can ignore my efforts (they refuse to pay for grad school, and my raises have been negligible). I need to inspire myself to begin burning that candle at both ends again...


3. touched base with JL instead of class:: This was overdue, but I'd been too busy to handle it. JL is FL's brother, my backup sitter, and repeated savior. He's intervened many times to resolve the child-support/visitation issue with FL, and he has also stepped in back-in-da-day to keep FL from trying to fly my head. I love him, even if we don't always see eye-to-eye...I feel an interracial dating jawn (the flip side of my diversity program) coming on...


4. removed the pigs live here sign off of the sty. Now to clean it properly. I need a maid...


5. more househunting...


6. studied...and studied some more...and did some additional studying...


7. rethought my dating diversity program:: entertained the thought of interracial/intercultural/intergenerational dating. If the brothers can date interracially/interculturally - women 10, 15, hell 20+ years younger - why can't we? Ok, maybe 20+ years is a bit much, but you hear me...


8. hung out with Hammy:: my DS - we spent some quality time together, despite crappy weather and my finals.


9. 
   the blogger meet-up:: 5 of us beautiful people show up (and a coupla beautiful friends), although 10 of us confirmed. Happy (of course) to get to meet the folks that showed in person - Thank You for stopping by & hanging out... but a lil salty at those who confirmed and didn't show. I can't even hate on those that replied that they wouldn't make it, but c'mon - where are the rest of y'all at? And Awesomebods - I understand that something terribly important came up - but how you gonna come up with the idea, and not show repeatedly?


10. more studying...
