Can You Tell It's New?

Something is different, and none of you out there in blogland can tell. I am sitting here typing this entry on a brand spankin' new computer. Today I sent Ricky to Best Buy to purchase a new computer. The old one we had crapped out on us on more than one occasion. This time I ended up losing all the photographs I had taken between March 14th and yesterday. Yep, no Easter Sunday pictures of the twins for us. I was so mad about that!! So, Ricky went and got a new computer and monitor. Luckily we had gotten a new printer for Christmas. So far it seems to be working rather well. I'm not sure how much I like Window's Vista yet. It's a little different.

For the first time ever, SuperChunk was actively trying to crawl. She would get up on her hands and knees, but from there she didn't know what to do so she would fall back down. I kept trying to put things just out of her reach so she would crawl to them, but she just wasn't getting it. I expect her to start crawling very very soon. SubChunk on the other hand was quite content staring at the underside of the coffee table. To each his own, I guess!

The twins still aren't sitting up by themselves. I'm starting to wonder if they ever will! Though I thought that about rolling over too and now they do it all the time. I guess I just need to be more patient. SuperChunk's two front teeth came through the other day. She looks so goofy! Now she has a total of six teeth, four up top and two on the bottom. SubChunk still has two and two.

I guess I should probably wrap this up and head to bed. G'night all!

Don't You Hate It When...

- You have one day to go turn in your paperwork for college and when you ask them if that's everything you need they say yes and then call you the next day to tell you there was more you needed to fill out.

-You've been craving fettuccine alfredo all day and when you get home from house hunting for three hours you realize you don't have any alfredo sauce.

-You go to the grocery store specifically to get cat litter and you come home with $140 worth of groceries and no cat litter.

- You get through 97% on a song on Expert on Guitar Hero III and you get booed off the stage.

-You get vomited on by two different people in the span of one hour.

- You have all intentions of folding and putting away the laundry, but you never actually get to it.

'Cause I do.

The Last Nail In My Coffin

Today I signed up for the last four classes I (presumably) will ever take in college. I say presumably, because technically I was supposed to graduate last year. Last Spring I took the last six classes that I needed, took my graduation photos, applied for graduation...and then got pregnant. So, those last six classes I intended to attend turned into mornings, afternoons and evenings of throwing up and trying to find a temperature between hot and cold that I liked. My teachers tried to work with me as best they could but none of them could give me what I needed. And I needed to be able to do the work online, not in a classroom. So, I managed to pass two of my classes, one being an online class and the other being a class with a very senile teacher that gave me a B on a paper I never wrote.

After I had the twins I decided that I wanted to get my degree because I was so close. I've still not decided whether or not I want to pursue my intended career...but that's a blog for another day. So, I had a meeting with my adviser, found out I needed four classes and signed up for them today. I will be attending FSU from May 12t through August 8th and then I will be an official FSU graduate.

This time I can guarantee that pregnancy will not stop me. :)

*Gobble* *Gobble* *Click*

Tonight I got one of those annoying telemarketer calls. I hate them. Every time I tell them to take me off whatever list I've been put on, I get a dozen more calls from different people. I know people need jobs and telemarketing is a way to make money, but come on! I get like fifteen calls a day! That is just stupid!

However, a few minutes ago I got a telemarketing call that I think deserves some recognition. I get a call from a lady named Julie. She goes through her entire speech about how I've won a thousand dollar online shopping spree and how she will also send me any two magazine subscriptions that I choose. After politely listening to her entire speech (as if she gave me a chance to interject anything!) I told her that I would like to be taken off whatever list she got my number from. As soon as I said that...and I kid you not...she gobbled like a turkey at me and hung up the phone. I'm still not sure what that means.

Anyone Have An Answer?

How do you get someone to listen, when you know they won't want to hear what you have to say?
