Thanks for the birthday greetings! I made a big ol' pot of spaghetti and had a couple glasses of wine with Mrs. CB. And for the first time in years, I spoke to both siblings, my mom, and all three daddies.

I found out I am not "academically eligible" for the new position at work, but Boss again encouraged me to get back to school. So I sent a few emails inquiring into programs, and Mrs. CB and I are gonna sit down and go over things to see how we can work it out without having a ton of debt in student loans when I graduate. I will probably have to switch shifts, but if I get into the program I want, that won't be for another 18 months. I am oddly excited about going back to school.

I am also going to start working with a personal trainer to strengthen my back and drop some weight. If I am going to commit to continuing my education, I need to be healthy enough to walk upright. Mrs. CB is taking a class at Teh Y and said her trainer was gorgeous and just my type-who am I to argue with logic like that?

I am setting goals for myself for this time next year:
1. Lose 50 lbs
2. Be enrolled in classes
3. Learn that math shit again
4. Sleep with Simone Lahbib.

Crap, not only did I forget to wish you a Happy Birthday, but I wrote April 30 on all my hall passes yesterday. You'd think a public school teacher would know when May 1 finally arrived...

Anyway...Here's hoping you had a great day and that you're able to read this post clearly today.

Oh, and feel free to contact me it you need any help with "learning that math shit again." :)

Thanks. According to the curriculum, I don't need to take anymore math :)

Now, if I decide to go in another direction, I will. And I happen to have a built in tutor, but I'll have to put out to get her help.

Glad your birthday went well, and you had a good day.

50lbs?-- they'll be little left of you, my dear!

And hey, is there another season of Blood on the Wire coming up? You'll let us know, won't you?

Oh, and another thing on the goals--let me know what happens with Simone.

Well, let's just say there is a bit more of me since last we met ;)

And yes, there is another season of WITB being filmed. I "acquired" the eps last August, so we'll probably have to wait until then.

Simone called. She told me to tell you that she's secretly been wanting you for years. When she was playing Helen - she pretended Nikki was you.

She wanted you to know.

(I know her from the 'Aquarians Kick Ass ' Society (AKA) , of which we are both members)

Mmmm, yummy. Sounds like you had a good day all around.

Mrs. CB is taking a class at Teh Y and said her trainer was gorgeous and just my type

Which means the trainer is a bossy Scottish midget who will have you deadlifting cases of vodka over to her apartment? "Ya break the Stoli, I'm chargin' ya double for the class!"

Sleep with Simone Lahbib.

Time for another restraining order!

Back to school? Cool! You should look into "credit for prior learning" since you know so much science stuff from your job.

I am hoping that experience will count toward my certification. THAT! will be a bitch of an exam.

Happy belated birthday and congrats on the return to school decision. As one who has been soundly thumped by you a myriad of times at Literati, I know you'll do fine!

Sorry for the belated bd wishes. I send happy thoughts to you to make your goals. I too need 50 pounds off, a student attitude, & to learn grammar (forget the number shit) Number 4???? I want to watch and get Mandana in the deal.

Many Happy Returns!

I think your goals would be much more fun if they went something like this...

1. Lose 50 lbs
2. Sleep with Simone Lahbib
3. Learn that math shit again
4. Sleep with Simone Lahbib
5. Be enrolled in classes
6. Sleep with Simone Lahbib

Incentive is everything.

Greetings
