Only going to get worse before it gets better...
Suffice to say, things have not been running as smooth as I would like since returning from tour. After a long bus ride careening through a blizzard on friday, I come home to several less than happy things. I got an e-mail from the School of Ed. saying that I had better get my Praxis II scores into them now or else they'll can my student teaching...yeah, remember that time when they said that as long as you had it passed before you student teach you're ok? So that was a big freak out over nothing. Also, a reccomendation form for ed. scholarships that was supposed to be sent to Brewer got sent here instead...doubt they'll take it now but I'll try anyway.
And that was just friday! Over the course of the weekend I found out that I'm going to have to pull several strings to get rid of my pesky foreign culture requirement, since my knee screwed that whole thing up. AND I can't go back to work since I'm not fully cleared to work, and if I over-exert myself while working, then it will be Menards' fault, so they won't have me back until I have full clearance...bastards.
And probably the worst of all is the fact that my grandma's cancer has gotten much, much worse, and she is probably not long for this world (i.e. maybe a few days). So it looks like there's a funeral in my near future.
But on the bright side (yes, I'm an eternal optimist), since I can't work, I can actually take a break during spring break, my folks are helping me out with the $$ situation, and I'll get some $$ playing my trombone in church on Easter. So if I can just make it til thursday without going crazy, I should be fine.

Ditto the hanging on until Thursday part. And ditto to the stupid school of ed. I'm in the same boat - and it really pisses me off. Whatever. Let's get together and bitch tomorrow. :-)
