What a freakin' week it has been! Mentioned my comedy class already, and then on Wednesday had my first class over at NEU. That class would be much better had he posted the syllabus before we got started so I could have known that he wanted us to have already read 4 chapters from the text book by then. Now I have to read those 4 chapters from the first week (which would normally have been 2 weeks worth of work, but this is a condensed intensive course), another 4 for this week, read the whole Wall Street Journal (yay), and write a research paper by Wednesday night! Ack! All of this while I'm trying to buy a new car, and trying to juggle several new men in my life (who of course waited until now to want to see me all the time...where were you when I was sitting at home knitting?!!?). I am so wiped out I can't even explain it. And my head is spinning because I have to reteach myself how to read a book now that I'm reading to be tested rather than for fun. Ugh!
Next week will be better though once I'm just dealing with one week's worth of assignments from both classes. And, hopefully by the end of the week I will have my new car on the road so it's not taking me a million years to run what should otherwise be very quick errands. Oh, and this is the car that I want to buy:



Ain't she cute? I know, some people hate the way these cars look, but I'm one of the people who dig the shit out of them. And it meets all of my requirements; has to be practical, reliable, efficient, and can't look like every other damn car out there. And for added bonuses, I can get a bike now since I can just store it in my car out of site rather than allow it to be stolen off the street, and it's only a few inches longer than my old del Sol, so parking in the city is no problem. =) It's also not a scary gas-guzzling SUV (get's better mileage than a lot of the cars that I looked at), and has really low emmissions. Go green, go! All in all, I'm pleased. Now I just need to run it by Dad who is the one who will find any flaws in my logic for going for this particular car. But, I'm pretty sure my logic is sound, in which case I'll have a new car by Friday (provided I quit blogging right now and get back to my homework).
Oh, and work? Yeah, why can't things at work calm down for me when everything else is going nuts? Is that really so much to ask? =)
