Let the Sunshine In!

Today is just a gorgeous day out! I have all my windows airing out the apartment to release the fetid illness that probably still lays within. (Now if only that damn dog will stop barking. Ugh. I hate dogs. Cats are never noisy like that. Neither are hamsters or fish.)

That is not a current picture. It is one of the last ones taken before my webcam mysteriously disappeared about 6 months ago . . . Amazing what happens when you ask "friends" to help you move. *ahem* I'll get another cam or a digicam once I get a job.

I've decided to go back to school and finally get my bachelor's degree. I've constantly put it off beause I couldn't ever find a program that I really thought would benefit me. I was enrolled at the University of Houston as a Communications major -- but that just sucked. Like I care about the history of communication and that people carved little things into clay pebble things. Bleh. BUT -- I finally found a worthwhile program at the University of Phoenix Online. I'll get my Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. Yes, it's a little more expensive. But considering the classes I take -- and the fact that each class is only 6 weeks . . . you just can't beat that. I start THURSDAY! Amazing.

And can I just say that I have really just dug down deep to Rufus lately? He is just amazing! So talented -- his lyrics, his music, and ever-so-adorable face (sorry Ryan). Why can't I look like that? (Of course, I could never get away with wearing what he wears -- but still.) He has a new album coming out sometime soon. I haven't heard a date -- but he's been in the studio. Also, I read that he was on a Harold Arlen album singing "It's Only a Paper Moon" and "I Wonder What Became of Me." (I'm in the process of setting of my Amazon.com WishList in case someone out there wants to be my sugar daddy and me lovely things.)
