8 degrees and falling.

The fact that Kroger no longer chas a spot on the shelves for OB, and they are back-ordered at KY.com (which is where the OB site send you to purchase online) is what makes me worried.

I have to drag myself to the store in the next day or so. I'm curious to scope out the Chicago situation, even though I can't stand them myself.

Nah. I'm not a concertgoer myself. I value too highly the volume control.

Ear plugs!

I never go anywhere without them.

Mr Peabody keeps looking for the door into summer. He barks to go out, then steps outside and immediately does a tight u-turn back into the house. Half an hour later, he tries again.

It's -2 here. I put a little fleece coat on Cody the Wonder Dog but as soon as I open the door he looks at me like, "Are you fucking kidding me?" I have to pick him up and put him on the shoveled spot on the grass. We got over a foot of snow this weekend. It's going to be a long winter for this little guy.

Fuck fuck fuck fucjity fuck bugger and fuck.

Guess what total asshole and idiot FORGOT TO TAKE A FINAL YESTERDAY??

Oh that would be me.

No make-ups possible. I am a total fucking idiot. Trying to see if I can take an Incomplete instead of the D.

It's official - I am a total fucking moron.

It's like 100 degrees here. OK, 50. But still! WTF.

ION, just the name of this recipe made me laugh: Bacon-Cilantro Fried Rice.

Oh no, Aimee! You are not a total moron. You missed one thing, out of the zillions of things that you are doing.

THanks, Jesse. Of course, my whackadoo mind isn't helping for LO! I am the onliest person to ever get a D in a pre-req, non-major class.

And that's a No on the Incomplete. I guess I take my D and chalk it up to Lesson Learned?

Can you retake the course and use the better grade?

I hope it's not going to mess up your schedule for next semester!

If I re-take it, it just shows up as a re-take. The grade I have now stands.

And I'm wrong on that. If I retake it, the new grade replaces it. And I have to retake it, I just found out. I love losing my shit and crying on the phone to people I perceive as being in a position of authority. Poor chica who ansered the phone in the advising office. But she was awesome and very comforting. "It's the Monday of finals week. You aren't the first person today to call with this problem. I promise - noone is judging you."

Which, naturally, is my biggest fear. Which is why I tell everyone around me about my shit.

All I can do is concentrate on my final tonight and my final paper in my other class.

Must also breathe and stop crying and possibly eat.
