Frustration

I really don’t like it when people ignore me. Like, really really don’t like it. I emailed the graduate department at ULM this past week to ask some questions I had about registering for a test. I was expecting an answer within a day or so. Fast forward 4 days later and I still haven’t gotten a response. Oh and did I mention I emailed two different people? Today was the last day to register to take the test in December. I won’t have the chance again until February, and then I still have at least 2 more tests to take before March 30th to get into the program during the first summer session. Plus observation hours.

Now, I could have gotten off my butt and gone up to their office. I know that. But seriously? In this day and age, can’t someone email someone else and expect a reply? It frustrates me to no end!

This was my dad's idea of a prank. I have an irrational fear of spiders, so when mom found this gem in the Walgreens paper, dad told her to get it and that he had an idea. I came home from work at 11 at night the week of Halloween, and my front door and porch area is decorated. They put the fake spiderweb stuff all over the door, and then strung the spider (I named him Willie, cause he gave me the willies) on the web between the two posts. I'm just glad they don't have a key. Oh and when I finally took the big guy down? Yeah, he kept freaking me out in my living room when I would walk through.


Thanksgiving is next week. Laura and Jeremy are coming down from Arkansas and we'll all be able to have lunch on Thursday at mom and dad's before I go to work. I'm working that day and Friday. Double holiday pay, woot woot! Since I wasn't able to come to her house this year, Laura made me promise we would go shopping Friday morning. I told her she was crazy if she thought I was getting up at 4am. I think we're going to go at 8 instead. Everything will be picked clean I'm sure, but she wants to go.

Oh by the way, I turned on the word verification so we'll see how that does! Let me know if it works because it didn't when I tested it.
