Brenda in Line to recieve her awardCongratulations are in order to all those people who just recieved certificates or degrees form Clark College, but I’d like to give congratulations specifically to our own dear Brenda who just completed her associate of art and associate of science degrees.

I hope only the best for her in the future and I know this is just the first accomplishment of many that she’ll reach.

While I Drag Behind

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

So my car broke. Not a huge suprise. We’ve kind of been expecting it for quite some time now, but not on such a full tank of gas. You’d think I’d be more mortified about it but I’m really not. It means I’ll have to wake up earlier in order to make the bus on time, but I really think I’ll be ok.

The only major long term issue I see is that I’m terrified of going to the gym during the day. I’m really not sure I can do it. The very idea of weight training in front of guys who could use my body as a dumb bell makes me feel ashamed. I’d rather risk riding my bike down past the sr 500 entrance in the dead of night. ( A presumed bike that doesn’t exist yet )

I just saw a guy running out in this area which kind of makes me feel a little more confident about it, but still. What a bummer. I was doing so great on my workouts too.

I’m going to crash early so that I don’t wake up late and miss class (this can not happen)

Bora's Secret

Chia PeelWork has been heavy, math has been heavy, financial pressures heavy (those two could be intertwined, hah!). Things are on the up and up now though.

Brenda took the Chia off her pet last night. The result was an interesting and slightly unsettling mat of green and brown.

I went in today to get an eye exam and found that I was correct in assuming I would need a new, much stronger, prescription. I’m really worried about the accuracy of the results but Judy (the optometrist) assured me that the prescription would be perfect. I was originally looking for a set of glasses that looked like River’s Cuomo but instead found a much thinner pair that I think I’m OK with (both Brenda and the Glasses lady were encouraging me to get these).
