I should be taking a test

I have my take home test for tests and measurements that is due on Thursday and I should be working on it. However, it is boring and I am at a computer with a faster internet connection so I am here typing away. In the last couple of weeks I have found myself tired and unfocused. I blame this on school, family drama, work and a horrindous diet, which I also blame on school, work, etc. You see it's a vicous circle.

But this weekend Bryan and I will return to Globe to eat fantastic mexican food, which will not help with the horendous diet thing, and attend Bryan's 10 year high school reunion sans dog. Let me tell you how excited I am to be sans dog. I love having Grace, she is a wonderful dog who personalitywise is very similar to mine. She does not sleep, I'm not faulting her on this because I don't sleep either, but on occasion I like to sleep past 4:30 a.m. and she does not let us (and by us I mean me, bryan can sleep through pretty much anything and definately sleeps though wimpering)

Most of the time Grace getting up early is an asset to me. I get a lot done in the morning, in fact this sunday I canned 10 jars of pickles and 2 jars of pickled eggplant that seems like it will be wonderful when done. I usually am able to walk, get her food together, do some homework, clean the house all before 7 am. but lately I'm tired and need more than 5 hours sleep so we are kenneling the dog and I am sleeping in on Saturday till at least 8 a.m. ok it'll probably be 7 but I can dream. (Actually I wanted to take Grace, but Bryan didn't book a pet friendly hotel so he's forcing me to step away from the dog)

I also decided to attend my reunion, which will be interesting. I don't know who is going and I hate social situations, but I put myself there and paid for the tickets. I'm hoping it will be fun and not just a bunch of ackward people sitting around staring at each other. Who knows at least I can say I went I guess.
