Hello everyone. I hope you all are enjoying your first weeks back at school, I know I am, and I know I am a dork. I wanted to get blogging earlier, but work and school have become a balancing act for me. Just to give you an idea: I work monday morning and have class monday night, tuesdays I have class from 10 in the morning to 8 at night, wednesdays I get to sleep in a little bit, then I have class and then go straight to work, thursdays I have class at 10 in the morning again and then go straight to work when I get done at 2:30. Then I work all weekend long and try to squeeze in time with my family. I live with my boyfriend and my brother, so its nice to come home and see them when I get done with my long day. My boyfriend also goes to TC and he works here too with the media guys, so if something goes wrong with the projector or the computers, he's your guy.

One of the things I firmly believe in is that everybody should be a server or a bartender in their lifetime. I waitress and bartend, and have been doing so for about 3 and a half years, and you know when you are waiting on a table that has never had to serve someone in their entire life. One of my favorite things (being just a little sarcastic) is when I'm behind the bar and customers want to bang their glasses on the bar or shout "hey you" at you. It just seems to me that politeness goes out the window because you are technically their "server." I am sure a lot of you have served before, and can relate to what I am talking about.

So, I wanted to get my blogging in before I have to go to work after class today, because when I get home tonight, I just may be in not a very good mood.

One really nice thing about this weekend is that I get to stay at my parents (since they get to go to the Packer/Cowboy game... they are so lucky!) to dog and Ray sit. I miss the dogs so much! My dog, Reggie, is a black lab who is getting up there in years, so I treasure any time I get to spend with him. The other two dogs are Tonka and Moose (and his name fits him) who are red labs. They are young and wild and I love it. I am looking forward to sleeping at night with 3 dogs on the bed with me, I miss that the most. Ray is my stepdads dad (my step grandpa?) and he stays with my parents since he is not doing well. It will be a great weekend I think, one I am greatly looking forward to.

Well, I think I have gabbed on for a long time now. Have a great week and weekend everyone!
