Thursday Thirteen

Thirteen Things about Lindsey!

1. Interested in reading up on the new Windows Vista OS? Check out this post by BentUser on the latest build that he’s tested! It’s a direct comparison of Vista and XP.

2. The first three days of classes are over for me, and they’ve been going well so far. I think I’m really going to like them this semester (yes, even the icky history and sociology divisionals that I have to take).

3. However, buying textbooks was a NIGHTMARE. I have one class with 2 books, one with 8 books, one with 9 books, and one with 13 BOOKS! It’s RIDICULOUS! I ordered most of them from Amazon.com, and by ordering them that way I was able to save almost $100. However, the bill was still about $550 . . . so glad that this is the last semester I have to do that!

4. Speaking of work and semsters, I still have a TON of work to get turned in from last semester. I’m slowly getting it all done, but it’s getting rather grotesque over here.

5. Also, my supervisor for work (I work in the office of the theatre department) has given me my hours for work. 12 hours a week. Now, that doesn’t sound that bad. Then you consider that last semster I only worked 6 hours. So I’ve doubled my hours. Still not that bad? Try again. I have no free time. I told her all the hours that I wasn’t in class, and she decided to schedule me for all of them! I’m actually at work right now. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I don’t get a break from 9:30AM until 5:30PM . . . not even a lunch break. Now if that doesn’t spell disaster, I don’t know what does. I’m not saying anything yet, but I may wind up having to talk to her about dropping some hours. However, the extra money would be nice . . .

6. Still trying to figure out what to do after graduation. We’re talking about setting up home base for MagicMouth Productions in Atlanta, GA. Since this is my favorite city ever and I’ve always wanted to live there, I have no problems with that idea ;)!

7. Speaking of MagicMouth, the show is going so well. We finally got everything all set up, we’ve got illusions coming in, and we’ve been rehearsing with our grips. Ben, Matt, and I are so excited we’re positively giddy - it’s pretty funny actually.

8. I saw the proof for my design for Reading Red Letters. Again, postively giddy ;).

9. Both Nicole and Bug are starting to do Thursday Thirteen. Welcome y’all!!!

10. I’m tentatively working on a weightloss blog - we’ll see how that goes. At the moment I’m barely having time to think about blogging, but perhaps once I get into a groove . . .

11. Men are jerks. Lousy jerks. (By the way, I’m not speaking generally, this is directed at a couple select members of the gender).

12. I’m still not completely unpacked from moving back in. Oops.

13. But the homesickness has subsided to a minor twinge every so often, so that’s better :).

    Okay, I’m getting excited about Red Letters. In the past I have found it hard to maintain a regular blog and a faith blog. However, I am attempting it again and it is working thus far. Except that no one ever comments on it. LOL But that’s okay… God knows what I’m saying. And yes, men are jerks, atleast most of the ones I’ve been attracted to. That’s why I’m letting God pick out the one. HE knows me better than I know myself and hopefully has better taste. :)

    Isn’t it insane what books costs. I know my son just paid a little over a thousand dollars for his books for this term. and three of them were used.
