Daily Challenge 06--Whatever tickles my fancy

I finally got up off my butt and called about going back to school.

I made an appointment and went there today for an informational meeting.

I'm really excited.  I can go all day, just one day a week--and occasionally one extra evening.  This fits in so well with my work and family schedules.  I can't wait!

It's not official yet.  I have to take an entrance test and they need to see what my tenth grade math and science scores were.  They need to be a C or better.  They weren't my best subjects, but I believe I was at least a C student.  But then again.....that was almost twenty years ago--who can remember that long ago!  I go there on Tuesday to take the entrance exam and by then they should have my high school transcripts.

I'm reasonably confident that I'll be starting in July *crosses fingers* :)

I didn't get any many decent pictures of my make up today, but I figured...what the heck I'll share anyway.  I thought maybe neutral would be the way to go since I was essentially going to a school interview.  I wouldn't want to scare them away with all my lime green, bright blue and such.

Random Thoughts on a Wednesday 2

The last few days have been pretty blah for me. I've been feeling under the weather for the last few days. I had a meeting at work earlier in the week and I'd planned a makeup look for that day, but I was feeling waaayyy to crappy to execute said plan.

I've spent the last two days laying around the house drinking tea (both hot and iced) and watching a bunch of television (mostly season 4 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Netflix instant-view--I loves me some Buffy!). I did go to work as well. This week is going by very slowly. I've been to work 3 days this week and it feels like ten. Tonight is my last night of the week and I can't wait for it to be over.

Random Thoughts

I've lost 3 pounds!!! Yay me!!! I've had some mishaps in the eating department and succumbed to the munchies from time to time but for the most part, I've cut my portions back A LOT. I don't really snack much. I like to eat real food--just way too much of it. So, I've been trying to incorporate some healthy snacking into my day and limiting myself to one normal sized helpings of my main meals. I've also been drinking v-8 at lunch time to boost up my vegetable intake and trying to eat a piece of fruit with breakfast and lunch. That's difficult as I am so NOT a fruit person. Despite my mishaps, I got some results so I'm looking to keep up the good work!

I need to stop procrastinating. I really want to go back to school and the program that I'm interested in starts in July. I've had all the information sent to me and the recruiters have called and left me messages several times. I need to call them back and get the ball rolling. *pokes self with a stick*

I'm really irritated that the twitter app for Android is only for the newest operating system. My sweetie has it and it's all cute and efficient looking. I want it too!!! *pouts*

**Today's Tidbits**

My mood: feeling better than I have the last two days, wishing the weather would take a turn for the better, only slightly annoyed with my offspring.

My look: completely plain and ordinary today. No makeup, no prettying of the hair.

My song: 'The way I are" by Timbaland and Keri Hilson. Heard it on the radio this morning on my way home from work. I adore upbeat, danceable music and this totally fits the bill.

My dinner: Spaghetti w/meatballs and sausage, spinach salad, unsweetened iced tea with lemon
