Amie, with an "ie".

Yay! The paper was turned in at 10AM this morning. Now all that's left this week is a test tomorrow that should be fine, and then an interview that's due on Friday. I'm hoping and praying the person I interview is going to be acceptable to my teacher. We were supposed to find someone locally, but I couldn't, so I got someone who's Laura's teacher in Little Rock. She's very esteemed professor, so I figure it'll be fine.

Laura is coming into town tonight. She's bringing her new puppy Einstein! Dad was a little weary about him being in the house, but she talked him into it. She's coming in tonight and staying until Friday, so we're having a swimming get together tomorrow night since I'm off of work. Some friends and their kids are coming over after work and we're just gonna make an evening of it. It should be fun--look for pictures in the next couple of days.

Only 5 more days of classes! Then I get a break for about 2 weeks, and then another round starts. Luckily I don't have to retake biology next session. I am SO excited about that. I was dreading going to see my advisor and asking if I had to retake it. If you're in a profession program like Nursing or Pharmacy you have to pass classes with a C to get credit for them. Well, I made a D in bio last semester (I know, scold me later) so I was petrified I would have to retake it. But, I talked to Dr. Jordan and she said since I'm not in any kind of professional program, that is a fine grade, because it is passing. It did bring my GPA down some, but at least I'm done with it for good.

Dad told me last night that I needed to make sure when next semester starts I go to the dean's office to check out for graduation. That scares me too. I'm almost certain I will get there to check out and they will tell me "oh we're sorry, we told you wrong. you're NEVER going to graduate." or something along those lines. God help me if that happens. Shy, timid Amie will rear her ugly head.

I'm on the prowl for a "little black dress". I'm kinda on a budget, I'd like to spend up to only $50 on one. I found a few yesterday that I liked. One I really liked was torn, so they may come down on the price, but I don't know if mom will be able to repair it. I think tomorrow I'm gonna go to Ross's to see what they have. I hate going to that store, but everyone I know loves it, so maybe I'll have patience to see what they have. Sometimes I shop like a man--I go in and get ONLY what I want, and don't look around. It's just easier that way sometimes.

Anyway, I'm at work, between calls. I'm waiting for the "BEEP" and my greeting to come on any minut--wait, there it is...see ya!
