Oh yes I forgot about that...even better. After that's taken care of, just save up what you can, take off and write home for money every three weeks or so

Morning all,
Busy weeks the last two, and I had a seminar yesterday. But, I got one thing done today already and IF I can get another one done today things will be looking very good. I won't even need to bring work home this weekend.
So that's all for me. I gotta get busy. Have a good weekend everybody.

wideguy - you'd be surprised how much of wikipedia is actually ok - the trick to using it is the same trick as using mapquest, google maps, or any other internet info source - you have to take it with a grain of salt, and use your own common sense. In most articles, most of the information is good (atleast the ones I've dealt with over the last few years). Some of it is completely wacked. You should be able to tell what is absolutely wrong, soak up the good info, and back it up with atleast some knowledge of your subject matter. If you're using wikipedia to pass college - good luck. If you're using it as a summary of the mounds and mounds of crap professors dole out in lectures or textbooks - it's awesome. Off to take that final

Wikipedia is awesome for research. Sure, I will double check the results I get, but it is by far the best tool for referencing old subjects I never learned in detail or need to brush up on.

i'm with Rob, i can't remember what it's like to do finals and write essays. It's funny though, i still have the odd dream about exam anxiety, that i haven't been to class all sememster and i'm not prepared for class!!!
nice day today think i'll break the roadbike out for a ride.
got a good deal yesterday on a pair of used ski boots, exclusively for backcountry touring, woo hoo!! I sometimes climb with the women's husband i bought the boots from. I got to take a peek at their indoor climbing wall.........what a great set up. my buddy built a bouldering room, very nice indeed. He's a climbing instructor and does kiddy courses in his bouldering room!!! i am so envious

Morning. XXXXXXXXL black coffee... better hook up the IV too!
Well the Vet appointment with the dog didn't go as well as I had hoped. The Dog has a feaver and a petty good infection. Started with a fvcking hot spot, then just blew up! It's really bothering him, and he's definitly suffering a bit because of it.
$200 of antibiotics plus some sprays and iodine scrubs to try and get it under control. If we can't in the next few days, we'll have to sudat him to shave and clean it so it can be treated. I feel bad for him.... 
I'll have to leave work early to go home and clean it again too.... which means I'll have to put in atleast 3 extra hours on Monday. Ugh.
Overall mood today:

He got a hot spot (not that uncommon I guess) we figure from some sort of food allergy and then it got infected. Might have been from scratching the hot spot? He's only about 13 months old so he still building his immune system too. I’ve never see something get so bad so fast… it doubles in size from the time I left for work yesterday to when I got home. Ugly, all weepy and gooey 
Hopefully I'll be able to get it under control this weekend. I'll just have to make sure I'm around to take care of the wound care stuff, which likely mean no climbing or running out to banff to pick up my boots which were warrantied

Morning all!
It's an absolutely beautiful day here on the best coast.  Took a walk along the bay this morning as the sun was coming up. The water was so flat it looked like a lake and the sun rising over downtown SD was absolutely gorgeous. I love it when there's no marine layer.
Anyway, leg's feeling better everyday. Hoping to go for an easy bike this weekend and to enjoy the sunshine!
Everyone have a fantastic day & good luck on those finals!!
Brendan - take care of that pup of yours.

Two finals down, two to go! And, only one more that's actually hard. Good ole wikipedia paid off on this last one - and now, I can feel the information just oozing out of my head:)
After the roadtrip I'll have to do the refinance thing, at least for a while. But I'm hoping to do it in one ridiculous several month burst of stupid long hours - I don't have a lot of debt to pay off, and the idea is to spend the next several years on the road.
Will
PS and yeah Microbarn, I wouldn't expect to see me at the wall much anymore - I already put the membership on hold, but may take it off again for one or two more training/socialising sessions before I split. And yes, my first destination will be the New, although I might not make it till next Monday, after the grandfolks leave town.

Good morning kids. Two tests next week, two papers and then two finals the week after. Then, thankfully, I'm done for a month or so until summer school starts.
Gotta work tonight. Still need to take the dog to the groomer this afternoon. Go to the doctor for a follow-up visit and go to the community college and get a summer course schedule so that I can register for classes.
I could use more sleep.
