Permanent Change of Station. Just goofy military lingo to say that he is transferring.

I am closing in on forty and am still getting acne. Come on, mother nature; this isn’t funny anymore.

Walk to clear your head. Lots of deep breathing. Its how I’m making it through nursing school while my spouse PCS’es.

I grew up Catholic in the Northeast. I never really met with the anti-catholic thing either til I moved to Georgia; in just the last six months I’ve been asked where I keep my tail seven times.

We (read: I) planned a backcountry hike for once the semester ends, and of course I’m making my husband (and inexperienced woodsman) watch “backcountry” wherein the hikers get hunted by a bear, and then yokels. He is not particularly pleased with this choice in movie. Haha.

the dude she costars with—-the guy from summerland and the oc. i cant remember his name—- supposedly was the reason they split in the first place, and they are now married.

Chewing Gum is SO great

...is this really real? if this is not in fact photoshop, we as a nation have stumbled further than i estimated

For me its not a matter of rude, persay; its a matter of social fit. My norms and mores don’t work down here, and their social norms and mores are alien to me. Stop coming to my door and asking me about Jesus, and leave me alone. Culture shock is real.

I want specific instructions to complete assignments. I want group project participants to, you know, actually participate. I want direct meaningful communication instead of a bunch of “oh bless your heart” bs. Oh, and I want my instructors to know their material and teach it accurately.

Yup. I’m a devil-bitch down here who lacks a sense of humor and has an excessive vocabulary. I loathe this place. It is about 70% of the reason why I’m considering leaving nursing school: i don’t mesh.

Nigh impossible.

I live in GA. I am not from there. It’s more 75% unhinged, 10% backstabby, and 15% pushy-religious. If youre close to Atlanta, you’ll be better off. Good luck.

Good luck revising. Being disciplined while on vacation is SO much harder than doing any work during your regular off-time. Be strong. :)

I wish it were just shedding...

Hair falls out for lots of reasons— nutrition and stress are two. If it keeps it up, or gets worse, go to your doctor and see if they can check your thyroid.

I’m on spring break, ha-ha, with a bunch of projects to finish and reading to do. Basically, just kidding about break. I am losing my hair from stress, and have to do some thinking re: not returning in the fall. It’s crappy in my head right now.

That is so great, congratulations! And your dinner sounds enviable, too!

80 days in this semester, and another year.

Oh, I like your way of thinking.
