Just Another Day

I started real estate school last night. I havent been in school in 7 years, so the idea of going back to school scared me enough. However, its for a new job and it will give me more options in my future so its worth it I suppose. So last night I was ready. I had my jamba juice in one hand and my notebook in the other and just as I step out of the car....I spill Jamba Juice all over myself. Seriously?! I was not happy. I cleaned off what I could and tried to get in the class to a seat as quickly as possible. Naturally I chose a seat all alone toward the back of the class. This class is going to kick my butt. They even tell you that the national average of people passing the real estate exam is under %51. Apparently for my particular school the passing average is %74, but with a class of 12 thats not too assuring. Needless to say for the next 8 weeks Im going to have to relearn how to study so that Im not wasting my new employers money by taking this class. Yip-i-dee-doo-da.

On a happier note FALL is finally coming in. Sure we still have temps in the 80s but its not the 90s or higher. PLUS our evenings and mornings are chilled. Its very promising. However I think the weather changes are to blame for my current health situation which is equivalent to a level of torture. I dont get allergy and sinus problems often. But I swear when I do, they're hardcore. I can have a sniffle one day and the next have an ear and sinus infection. So this time I've been trying to medicate and get the drainage out (even blowing my nose which I hate doing), though Im not sure how effective its being. I can still feel the pressure in my jaw and behind my eyes. Im hoping I wont have to go to the doctor about it but we'll see. At this point, Im miserable already. Seeing a doctor can only be moving in the positive direction. Im just cheap and trying to save the money or I'd go now.

(Sorry this blog has no flow to it...Im blaming all the medications Im hyped up on so that I can breathe and semi-function)

As Im finishing my last week here with Gary its weird. You'd think I'd be wrapping things up, trying to leave as much of a trail to follow as possible for those I'm leaving behind. Im not. Dont get me wrong, I am making notes when I think about it just in case they need to know it later on, but Im not going out of my way to make things simpler or dumb anything down. My concerns are making sure my external hard drive actually contains all the right things that I need to keep from my laptop (that will no longer be mine in a few days) and making sure I get everything out of my desk. When you've been somewhere 5 years your things end up all kinds of places. I am at a point where Im just ready to go. This week seems pointless. That may be because Im so miserable with sinus problems or because I started school...but regardless its pointless. Theres nothing happening in the next three days thats going to make a difference in how it will work after I'm gone. No one is learning anything or trying to keep up with what I've got going. Im ready to go. Start the new job. The new life.

I just realized last night that while Im excited about all my shows coming back on tv...I wont get to watch any of them for 8 weeks because of school. Really? And I dont have DVR. Or internet to watch them online. So Im not real sure how I'll swing that yet. But Im bummed. And its 8 weeks of missing my beau. :-( Things we do for our future.
