The Long Awaited
Well, shit. It's been an extremely busy summer, and I'm not sure where to start. I hope none of you feel like I've been ignoring you, because honestly I just saw my family this week after about four months of effort.

I took three classes this summer in minimester format: Spanish 102, 203, and Geo-570. I got an A, B-, and A+ respectively (did you see where the effort went?) It was...rough. I was working part time in the midst of this, and just when I thought I was done...

I got a speeding ticket on my first day of work, on my way there. I thought I was going to be late, and instead of calling ahead I sped. Guess what that did? At any rate, I had to do some community service and attend an 8 hour defensive driving course in order for them to reduce the ticket to less than 15 over the speed limit so I could keep my license (yeah, I'm a badass, I was speeding that much.) That took up more of my time. And then I covered days at work for Scott so that sucker could have time off (gee, thanks).
-----------------
All of this effort was for two reasons: One, so that Rach and I could float financially until Fall financial aid arrived, and Two, so that I could graduate at the same time she does so that we could move next year so she could attend Graduate school where ever she was accepted to.

Well, guess what? We broke up. Today. As in, as soon as I got home from Nonnie's place.

So, I guess I don't have to worry about moving away from my family anytime soon. Now that my life is my only my own to plan again, I'm going to take some time and think about what moves are next. In the mean time, I just need to float myself (since I've already paid for everything for Rachel to float and we've both gotten loan checks) until my loan check gets processed by my bank. Shouldn't take more than a day or two, and I'm going to deposit it tomorrow morning since I was in too much of a daze to remember to do it after I packed some of my shit and drove down to Dad's house.

I've also got to find a job closer to Denton, as it's going to take waaaaaaay too much resources to get back and forth to work at a place twenty minutes east of Greensboro, which is a 45 minute drive from here. It'll pay for itself right now...But just. Barely.
-----------------
I'm taking 15 credit hours this coming semester, one spanish and four Geography. I'll get the course names and descriptions later, but for right now I'm tired and I want to relax a bit.

Hey Jill! Long time no see! If I ever have a couple weeks and the gas money, I'll be there!
