This morning I did what we all would love to do every morning: I went to the post office. It’s been a month since I ordered a book I need for the 2nd half of the quarter and it has yet to arrive. I talked to the people I ordered it from and they said “check with the post office”, so I did. No dice, there were no packages waiting for me there. But since I was there I picked up a passport application, so that will be something i’ll probably work on taking care of relatively soon. Next year we will need it to get into canada or mexico anyways, so I might as well take care of it now before there’s a big rush to get one. It’s $97, but considering that the cost is less than $20 a year to travel to any country in the world (well, a few exceptions), I guess i’ll take it and be happy. So that makes 2 expensive forms I need to fill out at some point. Just more goals set for myself I suppose.
Speaking of packages, I got the bowling shoes I ordered from bowling.com yesterday. I ended up going for the Etonic Tec Mens’ Crankers as they came in my size aren’t crazy looking or gator skin like the others were. So for $43, I got some very comfy bowling shoes. My dad said he has a few old bowling balls around somewhere, so since that’s the next thing on my list, I may have to go searching for one of them. Hopefully all of this will help to stabalize my game, which depending on a million things can be anywhere between 80 and 155. Not exactly consistant.
The nice people of Sterling Heights have decided to send me my court date for the nonsense they put me through 5 minutes after buying my car. It’s on May 15th at 1:30. So I have time to prepare my documents and case for the judge. It’s a Pre-trial hearing. Lets’ hope I can get the charges dismissed and there won’t be a trial or anything of the sort. I’ve gone before a magistrate, but never a judge. This should be interesting.
I’m also in the midst of getting my vacation in order. Craig, Kate, hopefully me, and whoever else are planning on going back up to Barryton this year, first week of June. Last year was just a blast, it’s great to be in the middle of nowhere and not have a care in the world. There’s a few obsticles that will stand in my way. First off, I need to ask for the time off work. I remember dianna saying something about vacations for 2007 last year, so hopefully that all still stands. Secondly, I will miss the final exam for my oracle class. So I’ll have to make arrangements to take it earlier or something. It will be going into the last week of my Java Web Portals class, but that won’t be anything to worry about. I really hope that I’m able to go, last year was so much fun. And this year will be a true vacation, with nothing or anybody else to worry about.
All for now, more later…
