Another rather lazy Saturday from me. I did iron for about 2 hours. So, at least I accomplished something.

Apparently the eggs I had for dinner last night were a bit undercooked. At least that's what we believe, after I almost threw up. But other than the end of the night where I almost passed out from being sick, I had fun last night.

Didn't really do much today. Mostly I slept in pretty late, recovering from last night. I did spend about 20 minutes working on cleaning my room.

Well, today I shall be getting rid of several pair of old pointe shoes! Yay for that. I'm getting $20 for them, they're going to be used as props in a little film. I'm going to be doing a video shoot for a hair product commercial/competition/thing.

Eek! I hate it when this happens. I look down for a few seconds while Diane is showing us how to do the custom Office build, and I completely miss one of the first steps. Hopefully she'll go over it again next week. Our assignment for the next class is to read chapter 8.

Another, relatively, lazy day. I did iron clothes for about an hour, though. So I am happy to say that I accomplished one task.

Today in class we went over our test from last week. I was proud that I got a B on the test. We went over IE7 customization wizard. Diane asked us to read chapter 6 for Wednesday, and informed us that we'd only have to read chapters 8 and 9 after that. She wants us to research how to build a custom Office install.

Went to first service at church this morning. After church we headed to downtown Lake Stevens to the fire station. Today was the last day of the firemen's breakfast. The firefighters make pancakes for everybody.
After breakfast we wandered up to the sports field at North Lake Middle School to check out the car show. We walked around the track and checked out the cars. Afterwards we walked to downtown and checked out the booths at Aquafest.

Dad went over to Lake Stevens on his motorcycle for the main parade. I messaged back and forth with my friend Joey. His family spent most of the day at Aquafest. He had me cracking up later when he informed me that his golf cart didn't have headlights, which was the reason that he wasn't going to go to the movie that was being played outside. I was planning on walking with Ruby over to Lake Stevens for Aquafest, but I didn't end up doing that. Sadly, I barely left the house today. I only got as far as the stop sign on my road.

Dad and I went to Target today. I messaged back and forth with my friend Joey. Well, my nephews are here for the weekend. Today is the first day of Aquafest!

It's kind of odd not having to get up early and head to the Everett Animal Shelter for volunteering. I know that I need this break, just seems odd, and I kind of miss all the kitties. Aquafest is this weekend.

Test day. I tried printing out all of the notes that I have for the class so far, but the upstairs printer is being incredibly slow for some unknown reason.

After everybody finished taking the test, Diane was planning on lecturing. But she decided to let us have a free evening. Which meant that some people stayed at worked on their image, and other people headed out. I was one of the people that stayed and worked on my image. I stayed long enough after we finished the test that I got my graded test back. I passed!

Had to attempt to study for the test on my own today. Justin didn't come over to help me study.

We're reviewing for our first test in class right now.

Today my mom worked on laundry and ironing. After we got home from church and had lunch, I started working on my Python homework.

First thing this morning I washed Queenie and Ruby. I gave Queenie a flea bath in the utility sink. Then I gave Ruby a bath in my tub. I figured that I would take Ruby with me to the Journey Family Reunion Picnic.

Well, I spent at least an hour ironing, I think. Had a photoshoot today. My first photoshoot in a very long time. It was at a studio in Ballard. I'm quite glad I drove the Metro, otherwise I would have had a fun time finding a place to park. I plan on seeing friends tomorrow. (I've been kind of lazy about writing lately. I mean, for the past month.)

Hmm, can't really remember what I did today. I ironed for about an hour.

Halfway through the quarter! That's a scary thought. I was planning on washing cars today, but instead I ironed clothes. I really need to work on that. I also really need to work on this XP image build for this class.

While I was ironing earlier today I found some of dad's old work shirts. I'm going to give them to Justin. Since just ironing one shirt was making me angry. I felt that keeping something that brings up bad memories isn't too wise. Justin is helping fix my dad's computer right now. I'm going to rewind and watch tonight's episode of the Deadliest Catch.

I baked a cake last night! I'm quite proud of myself for that.

It's a good thing that I have appointments programmed into my cell phone. I had completely forgotten that I had an appointment with Karen at 1:10pm. When the reminder went off at 12:10pm it was a shocking reminder. All of a sudden I had to rush to get everything together, and head north. Thankfully, the traffic was all clear, and I made it by 1:30pm.

Yay, I'm going to see Otay! He called and invited me down. I asked my mother if it was alright, and she said yes. I did get my hour of ironing done this before saying yes to seeing Otay. So I'm getting ready to head to Olympia.

Well, I did my hour of ironing this morning. I did more than my hour of ironing. I think I spent about 2-3 hours ironing. By the time my parents got home I didn't really have time to shower before the wedding. Thankfully, I showered yesterday. After my parents got home from running errands I worked on getting ready for my cousin's wedding. On the way to the wedding I asked my parents who we were related to, and how we were related to said person. Apparently the groom is my cousin. His father is my dad's younger half-brother. So, he is my cousin, and my father is his uncle. Met lots of cousins from my dad's side of the family. Most I'd probably met, but the last time I saw them would have been prior to 1996. I liked how I did my makeup for the wedding. It was a gorgeous day for a wedding.

Yesterday I kind of got started on an ironing kick. I started working on the ironing pile in the laundry room. Yesterday I spent about an hour ironing, and today I spent about an hour ironing. I know, it sounds odd, but it's kind of relaxing for me. I'm also finding clothes that I haven't seen in the longest of time. It's like shopping, without having to spend money, haha.

I ran errands today. Well, once I got my butt out of bed and got dressed. I went to the credit union and paid my visa bill.

I was supposed to go and volunteer at the Everett Animal Shelter today. After some considerable thinking, I think that I may be burning out. I realized that it's been about two years since the last time I had a vacation/real break from school. For the past several weeks I've been forcing myself to go, and arriving later and later every time. When I e-mailed Hilary that I needed a break for the rest of the month, she suggested taking longer off than that. She mentioned that she figured that I was getting run down. So, starting today, I'm on break from volunteering.

Burning out would probably explain the reason behind my constant exhaustion, no matter how much sleep I get.

Back to school after the long weekend. We have to remake our Ghost CD's, because we apparently were given incorrect instructions last week. Good thing I labeled last weeks CD 'BartPE'. I'm going to label this one Ghost 7/7/10.

Saw Dr. Kohlberg today. I explained to him that I think I need to try Adderall immediate release. Seeing as how I can barely concentrate in my 7pm-9:30pm class.

My dad put my new cubed bookcase together today. I finished putting it together. I nailed the backer boards on the back of the cubes. I then measured my current bookstand so I new which one is wider. The wider bookcase would go on the bottom.

Kevin brought his 14 month old Boxer, Titan, with him when he came to work on Chris's car. After putting Spencer in the house, Titan and Ruby had a super fun time playing together. Titan is a bit bigger than Ruby, but he's got the energy to play with her.

Hmm, let's see. I drove home from Olympia in the morning. I am very much at the end of this tank of gas in the Accord. Too bad my mom's old Costco/American Express card expired a few days ago.

Today was eventful. We got up kind of late. We had breakfast at Denny's. First time I'd been to a Denny's in quite a while. After that we went grocery shopping at Safeway. Otay was kind of low on things like cereal and milk, and other necessities. We were going to see a matinee showing of The Last Airbender in 3D, but by the time we got home, and got everything unloaded from the car, we had less than 30 minutes before the movie was set to start. So we decided to see a later showing. With the extra time, we went out to the Nisqually reservation so Otay could pick up some fireworks.

Yay, I'm going to head to Olympia tonight. Traffic is horrible right now, though. When I got home from my volunteer shift at the Everett Animal Shelter, I gave Ruby a flea bath, and then I gave Queenie a flea bath.
