This past week was a beast. However, all was well that ended well. Here’s an update:
I took a really important test and score a 194 out of 200. The average score is 155. I studied.
I have been saving money only to turn around and lose it. I saved around four-hundred dollars last month but had to repair the upstairs central heating and air unit. Then I found out I have to get an editor to format my dissertation and a statistician to fix my data. That will cost $2100 over the final five months of my higher education debacle. Jesus is Lord!
I feel so slighted. This guy, who has regular parties, hosted a party last night and charged five dollars to get into his house (classy, huh…?). I paid my five dollars but Douglas, who rode with me, did not have to pay. Then, when I get inside, I found out no one else in the “First Family” had to pay either. F—in B—h!
I am so swamped with work. And it’s the summer. And I am a teacher. I am supposed to be chillaxin, not swimming in a sea of work. I am an adjunct at a local college and I take on additional courses each summer and I am FINALLY finishing my dissertation. Oh well. I will do what I have to do. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
I wish I could get alerted when people update their blog via phone. How can I make that happen?
I am excited about seeing Jasmine Guy’s “For Color Girl’s Who Have Considered Suicide.” She is directing this play, starring Nicole Ari Parker and a few other recognizable names. I am trying to get a ticket for Tuesday’s preview show.
Atlanta International Fashion Week is coming up. It is usually worth a coin. Check it out at http://www.atlantaintlfashionweek.com.
The first family is getting ready for our annual family reunion in Gatlinburg. It’s not really a family reunion, per se, but we went last year for whitewater rafting and had a blast and we are doing it again this year. I anticipate an annual trip. We only pay $100 to go and when we go, we get our life!

I AM GLAD YOU SURVIVED...SAD THAT ANOTHER WEEK IS RIGHT BEHIND IT HUH?
Adjunct here, dissertation there, what's next? I envy your discipline and focus. Keep working it, things will take a turn for the better.
I'm going to see that play too! I wish I'd known you were looking for tickets to Tuesdays show, because I had two tickets and won't be able to go on that night. I ended up having to pay a fee and change my day.
If you got thru last week then another week like that you will Master....Key word "got thru".
a rent party... how 70s
Damn, congrats on the beat ass exam score! Also, don't you know money never wants to stay where it's supposed to these days? I swear my bank account has a hole in it!
I was in Gatlinburg over the 4th of July for a family reunion. It was my first time there, and I was really surprised that what I thought would be a sleepy town was really bustling and a lot of fun. I even dreamed last night that me and some family were on the strip debating about whether we were going to go rafting or not. I definitely will be back :)
LOL I'm mad you called it a rent party!! But you know how atliens will tramp all over someone's house and not even bring a bottle...of course I'm saying that and I didn't have to pay either...
PLEASE tell me how the Jasmine Guy play is! I have been looking for her! So much talent!
So you finally got your test scores...CONGRATS... Just take your time and you will be able to eat that elephant slowly. I will be back next week so we will be back to hiking Stone Mountain in the evenings.
