Tall Like A Tree


School begins Monday. One thousand fifty-one dollars of The Father's money which will probably go down the drain if I do not acquire a job in my field upon graduation. I thought I would go with my Aunt Pammy to buy my textbooks (which will cost me an additional $313.05, if bought new) this afternoon, but the campus bookstore does not open on weekends. Scheisst. However, since my bus arrives on campus Monday at 11:07 and my first class does not commence officially until noon, I should have plenty of time to buy my books and have my Student ID made.

I calculate I will spend more time sitting on buses driving to and from school than I will spend sitting through my classes. How obnoxious. It's better incentive for me to save my nickels and dimes to get a decent car. I'll waste a lot of time I could use working at either Cutco or Marshalls, or studying, or cleaning, or whatever. Sheesh gamungi.

Yesterday I drove with Grandpa again. I seem to back up out of driveways and parking slots inadequately. Oh, well. At least I didn't kill us on the interstate.
