Woo hoo!
Smoke and Mirrors turns one year old tomorrow! Who'd have thought it... not me, to tell the truth. I started off as just a little experiment, just to see if I liked it, or if anyone would read it. Now, of course, I'm thoroughly addicted to it. (Not that you'd know from my slacker update schedule, but hey, I try...) I've met some very cool people, made some friends, gotten tons of moral support when it was needed... and only one hate mail! (From a guy who thought I made up the stories about my divorce, then told me I deserved to be cheated on because I talk about my cat too much... that one was easily dismissed -- he can bite me, AND my cat! Nyah!) So, all of you, thanks for reading, and keep the emails coming! (Damn straight that's a hint!)
I'm damn tired today. I started classes again yesterday -- I'm taking a management class Wednesday nights, and an online information services class Thursday nights. I'm going to have to remind myself to set the VCR on those nights... last night's class was good. I like the professor (even though she gave us a buttload of handouts -- that turned out to be a good thing, though. They're the readings we'll need to do for class, and most professors just put them on reserve. I'd rather not spend money on photocopying if I don't have to.) I'm not keen on studying management, but maybe it'll help me to understand why my superiors do the things they do sometimes...
This is a terribly dull journal-birthday entry, I know... but there's not a whole hell of a lot going on. That's a very good thing, though, considering how things have been going lately. My mom's still on the mend, and doing much better. My brother calls frequently to update me on his hamster, Walter (the best name for a hamster ever, I think.) Work's busy, but that's okay. And I've resigned myself to having a cold for the rest of the winter, since I seem to catch a fresh one as soon as I start to feel better. I ought to buy stock in Dayquil.
