Pastiche

The idea is for me to do my homework. What really happens is that I sit here and search desperately for distractions. I have so far completed one very simple assignment and have barely begun two other papers.

This is my favorite recent LOLCats. icanhascheezburger.com is the happy place I go to for a good laugh these days.

There are only 2.5 more weeks of school! A couple-three days of exams, and I'm DONE for the semester. I'm thinking of taking a summer class or two, possibly at the local community/tech college. I haven't looked into it yet, though.

I'm getting restless. I want to GO somewhere. It is time for me to get in my truck and drive north. I cannot leave until after May 4th because Superman and I have an appointment on 5/4 with a psychiatrist at the hospital who will be doing some tests on Diva. If I take summer classes that will define my free time. Twitch graduates from high school on June 5th (IIRC) so I obviously need to be here for that. My mama is coming into town a few days before his graduation. So are the in-laws, for that matter. That is an interesting dilemma. I want to be here to see my mama, but I don't want to be here to see the in-laws. Doesn't matter what I want, I have to be here. I want to see my son graduate, and that's the most important thing.

A friend of mine just dropped by. That almost never happens! I often say that I don't have many friends. The sad thing is that I really do have friends, I just forget them. Isn't that terrible? This is a gal who has a daughter Diva's age. I worked with her when our girls were in kindergarten and first grade in the girl scouts. I was a girl scout troop leader for a while, and this sweet lady was a great help to me. She took over leadership when I left. I am so glad she came by. I really like her a bunch, but we never get together. We could, though. I know we'd both like it. Maybe we will now that we have remembered each other. 

It isn't easy to be my friend. I don't do the right kind of reciprocating, or something. I'll have to think about that.

Superman has been building today. He got Light's bed nearly finished. I've been taking pictures that I will (most likely) post soon. The nifty thing about him getting Light's bed done is that it also got my office space done. I have my own study cave now, under Light's bed. I like it.

I baked a cheesecake this evening. It has been cooling on a rack on the stove but now I'm going to put it in the refrigerator to chill overnight. I used a spring form pan, four eggs, and four 8 oz. packages of cream cheese. It's the lower fat cream cheese, so it has fewer calories but tastes just as good. As for those fewer calories, though, it won't make much difference. You and I both know that. But it sounds noble!

That's all I've got. There will be more later, but I don't know how much more or how much later.
