Hello Everybody!
Today was supposed to be a lazy day. It snowed. I'm not really a fan of snow. Mostly because I'm not a fan of the cold. I see snow, I know it's cold outside. When do I like snow? In pictures. That's it.
I initially had no intention of even leaving the house, except to come to work. I didn't even go to class today. It wasn't cancelled from what I could tell, but I didn't want to go outside. Not a very good example to set, but hey, I haven't missed a class until today. What got me outside, you ask? My phone.
I forgot to mention it yesterday, but I have been having issues with my phone. Since Friday, my phone would periodically not accept any phone calls or text messages for hours. Then I would get flooded with them. I couldn't even dial out sometimes. So, to the Sprint store I went.
I told them my issues and gave them the phone. They said "about 2 hours" and I said "fine." I walked out the store and headed to Best Buy to walk around. I wasn't really looking for anything, I just didn't know where else to go. I guess I could have went to the mall but there are WAY too many temptations there.
After Best Buy, I went to Aldi's to pick up some cheese. I absolutely adore Aldi's. Their food is cheap and super fresh. No, they do not have name brand stuff, well sometimes they do. But their brand, to me, tastes just as good if not better. Everything is so fresh there because they don't over stock too much. And since so many people come to shop there they are always setting out new food. I don't let anyone down talk Aldi's.
Anyway, I went back to the Sprint store and they told me that my phone was "not sending or receiving signals from any of the towers."
"What?!"
"Yes. The phone's frequencies were bad."
"Nice." So, they gave me a new phone. Thank goodness for insurance.
I headed home and decided that I would watch some lectures from my iCourse (telecourse) and get some studying done. I hooked my laptop up to the TV, got my notebooks, glass of water, sharpened pencils, and sat on the couch. I pulled up iTunes to watch my lecture and.... no video just PDF transcripts of the video. You've got to be kidding me. I turn on Hulu Plus and watch an episode of "Grimm". So much for studying.
After "Grimm" Lindsey called me to see if I wanted to get some Steak n' Shake for dinner. Sold! Put on my boots and sweatshirt and was ready to go. I ordered the chili cheese dog with cheese fries and a chocolate covered strawberry shake. As you can tell, I am definitely NOT on a diet. Although, Ireally should do something better about the way I eat.
"I'm going to the library." Is what I told Lindsey when she dropped my off back at the house. "Right after my nap." Is what I said after she left. I was super tired after eating all that food. I know sleeping is not the thing to do but man. I was tired. I overslept by an hour but still had time to get set before coming to work.
At least at work, I have been productive. I printed out the transcripts and I found the lectures and have been downloading them. I printed out PowerPoint slides for other classes and submitted my assignment that was due today, for the class I skipped. I checked email. Ate a snack, strawberry Greek yogurt. And now, I'm working on this post.
Tomorrow, I will be ready to be productive and get some studying done. Promise? Nope, can't promise.
Till another day....
