Ugh... My Introduction to Criminal Justice professor has a droning, monotonous voice.
WHY DO THE BORING ONES HAVE TO DO THE AUDIO AND NOT JUST TYPE IN THEIR SEMINARS???

My grandmother called me as I was on my way out the door at work today. She asked me how I was doing/how far along I was/whether or not I was feeling sick, etc, etc.
I <3 Mom-mom. She also asked me when the baby was due (Oct 12th-ish), and she told me that my Uncle Mike and his wife were going to have their first kid, too, and their kid is due Oct 5th. I knew that they were going to have a kid, too, I just didn't think our due dates were that close, lol.
It's going to be absolutely hilarious. My first cousin on my dad's side of the family is going to be born literally days before I have my first child. It's kinda freaky, lol.

My god, if my husband were home he'd beat me in regards to how badly I'm procrastinating with this project. It's due at 11:59pm this evening, and I'm only about halfway through the damn thing.
I blame the professors layout for the essay, though. Who the fuck really does all of their analysis at the END of the fucking essay? I have been taught to analyze as I fucking go. And really, writing two pages about scientists and philosophers who influenced psychology, and then making a good set of conclusions based on what I've talked about afterwards without doing an actually good conclusion? Ugh.
This professor's preferred style of essays is going to drive me absolutely nuts. Not to mention the fact that history when taught through the internet just does not translate very well. I am so not interested in this course it's not even funny.
...Well, I guess I've bitched enough. If I can crank the rest of this bitch out in the next hour, I'll be fucking set.
EDIT: Rest of the bitch got cranked out. Now I'm going to conk out. G'night, ya'll. (I hope I fucking get a terrible grade on that; I fucking deserve it after that bullshit I just pulled...watch me get a 175/175 on that piece of shit. Ugh).

Arggggg.
Sinus infections + being pregnant = sleepy Alicia.
I need to finish this math assignment so I can focus on my essay on Monday and Tuesday. Final projects for term and whatnot. Statistics was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be, but damn if there wasn't a lot of fucking vocabulary. Ugh.
Wish I wasn't working Saturday and Sunday. =/ Evan leaves at the end of this month/early next month for training and then Afghanistan. He won't be back until the baby would be at least 4 months old. Probably won't be back until the baby's closer to 9 months old, though, if he's gonna end up deployed for 15 months. Damn you, Marine Corps. Damn you. All we ask for is that we know how long they'll be out for. This "at least 10 months" crap is annoying as hell. I'm expecting 15, he's expecting 18. I'm hoping he's wrong. D=
I mean, 1.5 years without my husband? Or even 2 years? Dude, while the money would be amazing, it would just suck tremendously. Not to mention how emotionally draining it's going to end up being for him. That's so unfair to the troops to not give them any sort of idea when they'll be back.
I'm gonna miss him. The baby will keep me busy, at least. <3

It was snowing earlier. Like, snow. Real snow. Cold as hell snow.
It's not even below 40 degrees.
I also feel sorry for my husband--the poor guy is out on the field right now, and probably was snowed on, as well. I'm surprised Jacksonville hasn't freaked the fuck out yet, either. I'm sure work is going to be busy for whatever reason, now. Ugh.
EDIT: Also, my cell phone has kicked the bucket. I can have it on for a little while, then it starts deciding it's going to call people all on its own. So yeah. I don't know what our home phone number is off the top of our head, but I'll let y'all know as soon as possible.
EDIT'S TWIN BROTHER: Okay. So my cellphone has NOT kicked the bucket. In fact, except for the increased water damage on the screen, the phone actually works BETTER now than it has before. It doesn't need to be on speaker phone all the time. I can actually understand what people are saying without having it be projected all over the fucking place. Sweeeet.

I'm thinking of taking up freelance writing as a hobby of sorts (that would make me money, potentially!). Do you guys think this is a good idea y/n?
If anything, it would be a neat and interesting learning experience, which I'm all for. And if I get paid for writing something every once in a while, it sounds like a good deal to me. What do you guys think?

Dude, I'm so glad I didn't give in and watch the game last night. I'm like a curse to any Philadelphia team. As soon as I start paying enough attention to what's going on and start watching the games, the team starts to lose.
But woo! World Champions. =D About damn time Philly had a team that actually DIDN'T choke!

199.2lbs as of this morning.
I'm taking that as me reaching goal weight.
Next goal: 165lbs. =D
EDIT:
Also, apparently I am the master of bull.shit. On Tuesday, my Portfolio for Bioethics was due. I hung out with Tiffany and Danielle Tuesday morning at Monkey Joe's (best kid's place ever, btw), we got back home, and between 1:10 and 3:10 or so, I wrote my portfolio so I could go over Danielle's house and hang out with her, her husband, and Tiffany some more (along with their children).
That's right. I wrote this thing in 2 hours, if that. 8 pages of pure, unadulterated bull shit.
I scored a 250/250.
Fuck yes, I still got it.

If I'm not online on gmail, it's because our power went out. So call me if you wish to speak with me. =)
Don't worry, I have your cell phone charged just in case of emergency, for whatever reason. <3

I'm getting more hours because I was asked to come in early and close tonight. <3
This is great, because I get out by 6-7pm, since we're closing early because of the tropical storm on its way up the coast. I will laugh so hard if we don't get much more than rain and a little bit of lightening. Because I'm getting an extra hour or two just off of today alone, on top of the holiday hours I'm getting paid for this week, and the extra hour I wheedled out of them on Monday.
The only thing that sucks is that I'm going in at 11. But oh well. Extra hours = extra money = <3
Also:
Dear Tobacco House:
I WON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOUR SHIT ANYMORE AFTER NEXT WEEK! I HOPE YOU ROT IN HELL. <3 I hope the next tobacco cashier hates your guts just as much as I do, and calls you on your shit like I plan to if I see you one more time before I switch to Fax'n'Pull.

I think I only need to lose 5-10 more pounds before I fit into all of my size 16s again (I can wear two of my 16s now--and a few pairs of 18s that are more like the big 16s I have).
Hot damn I'm so close to not having to worry about pants. Now I just need more shirts, haha.
What was most awesome was seeing 200--it's been a long ass time since I've seen a number that small. I get the feeling once I'm back in the 100's this weight-loss thing will be so much easier (especially with the husband being home soon).
Best part is I now have two pairs of shorts to wear. Yaaaaaay. (one of which I can actually wear to work--they're long enough and fit within the dress code). No more sweating my ass off at work when I'm busting my ass like crazy for whatever reason.
On that note...
Dear Tobacco House:
Go die in a motherfucking fire. You tried to sneak 3 coats past us the other night (Friday night) and then you come in LAST NIGHT and try to score extra promotions again. Fuck you. Don't think I have forgotten that you've asked me straight to my face how in the world I got the job back there in tobacco--because I haven't. And I'm still pissed as fuck about it, and if it weren't for the fact that I value my job, I would have told you straight up I'm not selling you any promotions, you might want to get a COS. And why the HELL would you think, after I gave you promotions the day before, that you were going to get some more coming in the next day. Shipment comes in on Thursdays. You know this. This is when we get our promotions. We didn't have any big orders yesterday, so therefore no one came in order to turn down promotions. YOU'RE NOT GETTING ANYMORE PROMOTIONS. STOP FUCKING ASKING ME. STOP ASKING ANY SECOND PERSON YOU SEE COME BACK THERE. THE ANSWER IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE JUST BECAUSE YOU ASK SOMEONE ELSE.
One of these days you're going to piss all three of us off and we're just going to decide not to give you your promotions anymore and give them to your brother instead. At least he's nicer than you are. If they're supposedly all going to the same stores, anyway, it doesn't make any difference, right? But I know you're the stingy type and I know there ain't no way in hell that you're giving those promotions that belong to your brother's store to your brother. You asshole.
~Tobacco cashier with the curly hair that you hate oh, oh so much because she puts her foot down.

So, apparently they really are moving us out of our homes and whatnot and plan on knocking them down sometime soon.
My neighbors across the way at 705 were just moved out today; it's the same with those in 704. They're like, three houses down from us.
Also, apparently, our only word of warning is a little piece of paper they stick in our door going, "WE'RE MOVING YOU! ON THIS DAY! HAVE FUN!" What a great way to get some sort of notice on this type of thing...600 block is entirely vacated by now, I think.
Tiffany and I were making bets that the day Evan comes home from Iraq is the same day we're getting our shit moved to temporary house #2. I will be so pissed if I am incapable of coming and getting him because I have to stay with the movers all. damn. day. while they're moving our shit. I will also be pissed if I, for whatever reason, end up missing the season premiere of House because of this.
I am not surprised they're really not giving us much notice, though. Tiffany's house is the last on the block; ours is second to last, so we're probably going to be waiting another two weeks or so, maybe.
...We're so going to end up in another, not-new house, though. I just know it.

September 16th, biatches.
House, MD Season Five beings. =D =D =D =D =D
Only thing that could make that day better?
Evan coming home! <3 It matches right up with his estimated time to return home. If I keep my fingers crossed real hard he'll be home before that! <3 <3 <3 <3
(Yes, you assholes, I actually missed my husband. =P)

How, exactly, did you plan for me to open one of the two trunks I got full of all your shit you sent home? Kinda need a key to open the padlock, and I don't think the key is present in the actual box I can open. However, it appears that your computer, the Wii, your monitor, and other various items have made it home safe. Can't say much else for the other stuff, though. =P

I just beat Guitar Hero III on Hard by myself.
Bwuahahaha, I have gotten better, because once upon a time I thought that the battle against Lou was soooooo haaard. It is hard, mind you, but Evan couldn't beat him without me coaching him and I just finally beat him on my own. <3 <3 <3
My hand kinda hurts now, lol.

I feel accomplished. I wrote my entire paper for Comp II yesterday, finished all of my discussion board posts for school yesterday, leveled Evan's druid, got my priest halfway to the next level...and that was just yesterday.
Today, I finished reading my bioethics assignment, and reorganized the bedroom. It seems this arrangement will work fine, if not better than the previous arrangement Evan and I had had. <3 I might even--gasp--cook dinner tonight if I really feel up to it, haha.
I need more productive days off like this, lol.

I think I should certainly thank Mrs. Foxx, Mr. Vazzana and Mr. Baker whenever I get a chance.
Without Foxx's class and without my two AP history classes, I don't think I'd be able to formulate this 10 paged paper quite as quickly as I am, haha. All three of them have taught me how to effectively bullshit and make an intelligent and persuasive sounding paper.
...Of course, it would help if I just wrote the whole thing entirely at once, but I just can't focus on it for much longer than a page or two at a time. Thankfully, the sucker's not due until tomorrow (but I do have my introduction, my rough conclusion, and my first main point written out of four main points...so I have like, half the paper written already. Sweet), but I really should get off my ass and write some more.
Technically, this is only the rough-draft and I don't really need to have it be 10 pages long just yet...I'm aiming for 8. I think it'll end up being around just that when I'm done. That means I have roughly a page or two of bullshit analysis to add in.
I love knowing how to write. <3 (I also love that my prof encouraged me to write a lengthier introduction--my intro is actually 3 paragraphs long, two of which is part of a short narrative and the third paragraph contains my thesis. And I think she will love every bit of it, haha.)
EDIT: ZOMG HAHAHAHAHAH. She did state that my revised introduction was much more effective (though there are grammatical issues towards the very end--I hate pronoun/antecedents, urgh). Which means my introduction makes up the first page of my paper. Sa-weet. Less I have to write when it comes to the factual stuff! Woohoo!
