Back to School, Back to School so Daddy Doesn't Think I am a Fool

First and foremost - Name the movie (from the Subject line)!? I need to watch that movie again, it has been a long time. I believe it has been since Freshman year with McCall :)

Today I met with an advisor at SLCC, I was super excited to go and figure out just what I needed to finally get an Associates Degree and move on from SLCC. We had a nice little chat about how I had moved away for the last three years and now I am back and ready to finish. She prints my transcript and proceeds to tell me I have 4 classes left - that is all! HOORAY! I am screaming that in my head as she is still talking. She lets me know that after I finish registering for my classes for Spring 09 I need to fill out a graduation application so I can get my degree in the spring. Again, shouting HOORAY! I thought I had a year left for sure at SLCC but only one semester!
I get home and tell Dane my great news and am all excited to jump online first thing on Dec 1st to register. Then around 5 or so tonight I get a call from SLCC to let me know that since I have been an inactive student for 3 years I now have to re-apply. BOO!! They are now going to make me pay my application fee for four classes and the fee for my graduation application. I try not to dwell on that part of it though and just focus on the fact that I am finally moving on with my education!


PS - Cross your fingers that they accept me back - what if they don't! EEEK!!

Current Weather Report....SNOW!

Normally I get really excited when we get a really good snow for the first time. I think it might be the thrill of changing into another season but alas, as I look outside right now, all I am feeling is longing for the warm weather of Vegas. :( I think that Dane and I will become sun-birds like Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Bob. We are already excellent Bingo players so we would fit right in! And we have not 1, not 2 but 5 bingo daubers of all different colors to play with! That means we can play five cards at once and not get confused! Sign me up!

PS - Congrats to our new President and please Oprah with your on-going Obama support, send your personal dresser to the white house to help out our new first lady. All I kept thinking last night was she just wrapped a rug around her, tied it around the middle to keep it in place and put a nice jacket over it.
