Is there such a thing as 'shopping ettiquette'? I thought there was. Apparently not everyone knows of this though. I say this cause today people were really pissing me off. Blocking aisles, standing in the middle of the aisle, pretending not to see you or hear you when you say 'excuse me' while trying to get around them. And I am a nice person when I say it, not mean. Stupid people.

I noticed something else today while I was driving home from school: people litter way too much. Now that the snow is melting (or already has melted) you can see all the garbage along the sides of the roads. I almost wanted to stop and pick up all the empty pop/beer cans. I think I could almost fill my gas tank on what I saw today. (Seriously, not FILL my tank as gas is $3.53 a gallon. Maybe I could have bought 1 gallon.) On top of pop/beer cans, there was your normal variety of junk. What did surprise me was all of the empty antifreeze jugs. Considering where we live, the high use of antifreeze is expected. But what is wrong with placing the empty container back into your vehicle and putting it in the garbage/recycling when you get home? People amaze me sometimes, and that is not always a good thing.

This is my last full week of classes. Next week I have my finals but will be done Wednesday after the final exam. Do I need to tell you how happy that is making me? This semester has been hard. And yes, it will show on my GPA. Most likely I will get not one, but two B's. Bye-Bye 4.0. I knew this semester would be the end of my A's, but it is still sucks a little, a hit to my ego mostly. Good news is that based on my GPA, I have been selected for 2 scholarships for next year. Finally! I am really hoping for some grants or something to take the load off me as far as student loans are concerned. With both Ryan and I in school, student loans are definately an issue for us in the future.

Kept Brendan home from school today due to day #2 with a fever. Just waiting for one of the other two to come down with it next. And hoping it avoids me for exam time.........

Saw a cute little fox running around last night on the beach. First time I have seen a fox in a long time. Normally I see coyotes so it was cool to see the little guy last night. Still no bear sightings for me. I am really hoping that I start seeing the moose again, too.

Time to get back to my homework. Only 9 days to go.....
