This is my tiny little corner of the blogosphere to rant and rave about the things politicians and others say to make me angry.....

Little late...but better than not at all!

Here's a chuckle for today....

You're 85% Irish
Congratulations, you're a shining example of an Irish lass (or lad).There's hardly anyone more Irish than you!
How Irish Are You?

And the new Student Body VP is....

It's not official yet; the elections don't take place until the first week of April. But I'm not opposed, so .... I may as well be in office already. Yay! (Happy Dance.)

Along the same lines....ooh. My stress level has so dropped, after my explosion on Wednesday. I had a long, fairly sequestered Spring Break, got a lot of work done, and instituted a brand new schedule. No Homework After Ten. Period. And I am in bed before midnight.

Baby update, since I was preoccupied last post....
Had the sonagram...kid is Stubborn. Took an hour and a half, and she still didn't move to where the tech could measure her head. (Don't officially know sex..."her" just sounds a lot more humane than "it".) In the process of trying to get her to move the skull, she kicked at us, flipped us off, and moved her little mouth..like she was telling us off. *sigh* Not even born, and she has her mama's attitude. And her father's mannerisms.

And I have to find a new OB. Yeah...the one I was seeing prescribed (after two meetings) an anti-depressant that is known to cause birth defects. Grrr....that is my child he is hurting! So, I am not taking the meds, and I am finding someone else. Hopefully this month.

Think that's it.

Better.

So, I blew up, yelled, ranted, shoved assignments back at people, went incommunicado, missed some class, and now I feel better. HA!

Yeah...I went into school Wednesday just long enough to tell people wehere the H*** to shove their ideas and left. I gave back three projects, in great detail about how they will be finished and when by, and told everyone in ALL of my offices: "If it isn't on my schedule already for March, your answer is no. DON'T ASK. And if I don't have concrete plans with you over spring break, don't call me. I WON'T answer the phone." I think it was effective. And I feel better. Now if I could just get my homework all caught up too.....

Oh, and baby appointments. They were okay, I guess. Baby is stubborn already! Took an hour and a half in the ultrasound, but got a lot of pics out of it. And yesterday, the doctor put me on Zoloft for my depression. We'll see if it works, but so far all I feel is a big old migraine.

Keeping it short today.
