Popcorn and Lemon Water
Good grief, do I have a case of avoidance going on here. I guess maybe it’s from pushing so hard for the past few days. While I was studying for my exams I felt bad because all I was doing was sitting and reading. I did only minimal housework, not that I do much anyway, and had little social interactions.
So I pass my exam and I have spent three days cleaning up my home office, filing forms, making lists of things I still have to do plus making arrangements for my trip to Orlando next week.
Last night I stayed up very late working on my office, filing, throwing stuff out and waiting on my younger son. That child is going to be the death of me. He let some buddy of his convince him that a 1998 GMC S15 would be great to go four-wheeling in. So they get stuck in a creek bed and have to get pulled out. He didn’t get home till 11:00 p.m. and promptly lost the use of the truck.
I had lunch with my girlfriend today. We went to White Water Grill at the Charleston Marriott. It was a bit of a drive for me, but it was close for her. She works for BB&T Carson Insurance. She said she told some of her coworkers about me passing the exams and they were amazed. She said they couldn’t believe I just up and decided to study it and passed on the first try. I told her I couldn’t believe it either!
So, I get home and get back to filling out forms and making lists. I gave up and just admitted that I have to go order some hanging and file folders. I have GOT to get things put away. I have really let things go since I went back to school. And I have to get things in order because my next semester starts September 4. My books should be here tomorrow.
I want to find out how much a wireless card and service is going to be. The office I will be working in for a while has not internet connectivity. I have AT&T/Cingular/AT&T cell phone service. According to their web page it might be possible to use my cell phone to connect my notebook computer to the internet. I just wonder what it will do to my bill and how hard will it drain my battery. They offer the following plan of service:
| Data Connect Plan* | Included Megabytes |
Wi-Fi Connect Plan* (Unlimited Wi-Fi Service) |
| $19.99/mo | 5 MB | $39.99/mo |
| $29.99/mo | 10 MB | $39.99/mo |
| $39.99/mo | 20 MB | $39.99/mo |
| $49.99/mo | 50 MB | $29.99/mo |
| $79.99/mo | Unlimited | $19.99/mo |
That seems like a lot for a little.
Ok, I’m outta here. I’ve been sitting here, keying this, watching TV and not going to bed. I have a lot to do, I have no business goofing off.
But, I know me, and I will.

I really dread the day my kids start driving.
Congrats on the exam!
