Wilderness fun…or not.

I’m in Canaan Valley for a conference. If I was an outdoorsy kind of girl, this would be great. As it is, I’m in my room, which has (honestly) chairs made of logs, playing on the internet. We have a great cable selection, though, so I’m good. I’m here until Thursday and I’m still waiting to figure out what the heck I’m doing with Ben and Jesse. Hey, guys, if either of you stumble upon this, let me know the actual dates of your vacation.

In “End of an Era” news, Video Elite has announced that VE Awards will no longer be awarded. It’s partly due to the number of small “award” sites that have popped up and also, I think, due to the fact that some vidders are relying on too many special effects, filters, transitions, etc., that it makes the vidding pool a little convoluted. I’m proud to have received my six awards from them and to have contributed in finding vids as well. Thanks, Barbi and Marie! You made fanvids what they are today! :love:

Oh, new (and default) theme, Now. It sums up my current fandom love 🙂

Whacker!

Gee, who knew letting the LJ go would be so liberating! I’m back to posting all the nonsense of my life again. Yay!

I bought a lawn mower today. Damn, it’s nicer than my car. I also bought a weed whacker and lots of accessories to go with each of them. Of course, in my novice ways, I broke the weedeater straightaway, but it’s fixable (just not by me). Heh.

New RR/RW challenge starts tonight and we’ll see how the new faces are, though I’m doubting I’ll like it as much as the previous challenges.

Ton of work related tasks to finish this week, starting tomorrow with the bombardment of seniors with all the crap they didn’t complete aleady. Joy. The good news is that I get to hang out with Flo for a little bit, so that will be nice. Throw in some and it’s a BCHS reunion! 😆

It’s Official!

I’m officially a Marshall University graduate student. I believe that with the two classes I’ve already completed, I have only to take 2 or 3 more to have my certification! I knew my Master’s Degree would be useful one day. *whew*

Holiday redux

Hob526.jpgThe picture of Hobbit, just another “awww” moment. It’s Memorial Day weekend, and it’s only now that I realize I have less than 3 weeks of work left. We (the counselors) will probably be called in to work an extra week or two, though. Why? To finish scheduling and final transcripts. Now I’ve already finished my part of scheduling, but my cohort, who has a life, hasn’t. I can’t complain too much, though; it is an extra thousand dollars or so.

LOST didn’t really disappoint or wow me, but I’m going to watch next season to see what happens, so I guess they accomplished their goal, eh?
