Whew!

Ahoy!

I’m glad last week is over!

First, let me apologize for an exceptionally dry posting week. I do believe last week was the longest week I’ve had in a very long time. For starters, I had a Computer Organization test on Friday. Since I take my tests online, I have to drive somewhere to have the test administered by a FSU approved proctor. For the sake of convenience, I just take my tests at the FSU Testing Center (plus it’s free). It just so happens that the Testing Center is only open during normal business hours. Which in turns means that I have miss about 2.5 – 3 hours of work. All that on top of some crazy deadlines.

So Excuse #1: I was coming in early to work and leaving late last week to make up for lost time on Friday.

Thus resulting in Excuse #2: I had a test on Friday.

And what other excuses do I have? I had a killer Data Structures program due on Sunday. So aside from having to study for a test, I spent most of Monday, Tuesday, part of Thursday, most of Saturday, and all day Sunday coding for the assignment. I finished the program around 8 PM last night. I wasn’t happy about having to miss church and dinner with the in-laws, but it had to happen.

Excuse #3: I was being a little code monkey. Not by choice.

And the icing on the cake, Kari had to work on Valentine’s Day so we had to celebrate this weekend. Which wasn’t it, we were ok with that. Here’s the kicker: I was going to take Kari to Nicholson’s Farmhouse because that’s her favorite place to get a quality steak. Guess what? The place closed at the end of December. Mucho sadness. We ended up going to Marie Livingston’s in Tallahassee. Not quite the same, but it was still good and yummy. I just can’t believe Nicholson’ is closed. Man.

But I’ve got more on V-Day tomorrow. Yes. A post tomorrow.

Anyways, I’m spent from last week. I’m looking forward to much quieter, less stressful week.

Hopefully.

    I do believe that even after I finish all my (desired) schooling that pot smuggler will be more qualified for the majority of the job market over me.

    Even though I was a sad panda due to the lack of posting goodness last week, I’m glad you were able to stop by for Jillian’s birthday.

    That article about the stolen van was pretty sweet. It was both humorous and heartwarming. Thank you.
