This week:
Jul. 19th, 2011 09:31 amToday: Gotta head over to Blick to pick up the framed Mucha-esque thing. Debating whether or not I should actually bring it to school. From what I heard, Arianne never did put up the exhibition she said she'd put up when Ryan and Tracy had her for 20th Century Art, and that kind of bothers me. XD;; I'm leaving in a month, I don't wanna just give it to her and never see it again!
Tomorrow: (Hopefully) a trip to North Shore Animal League. Mom said someone told her they're very intrusive during the adoption process (and said something like, "It's a pet, not a cihld"), but they see pets as members of the family, so I'm not surprised. They're not the only shelter with rigorous screening methods. If she doesn't want to deal with that, we could just go back to the ASPCA. NSAL's larger than the ASPCA, I think, and they rescue dogs from puppy mills quite a bit, so I'd imagine finding a Shih Tzu or a Yorkie wouldn't be too hard.
Rest of this week: Nothin'. Hanging out with Charlie at some point. Possibly seeing Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 with Dad, as he hinted at it.
Anyway, yeah. Craig wants a Shih Tzu, Mom kind of brought up wanting a Yorkie. The Yorkie thing is Joanne's fault, really. She came over with Bella on Sunday, and Bella kept jumping up onto the back of the sofa and trying to intimidate people walking by the house. ^^ I was napping and thought I heard a bark, and was like, "Nah. Mind's playing tricks on me." It sounded just like Oliver. Woke up and heard it again, went to the living room, and was pretty surprised. Bella's a sweetie. I sat down near her, and she came over and just looked at me until I started scratching behind her ear, at which point she just kind of rolled over and lifted her leg like Oliver used to. She's pregnant, and I think Mom's actually playing with the idea of buying a puppy from Joanne, but I don't know how serious she is about that. She feels the way I do about buying pets; there are more than enough of them out there already to be buying new ones. The only instance I was thinking about buying from a breeder was when we were playing around with the kitten idea (which Mom keeps wavering on). I thought about trying to get a Devon Rex, since they're furry but lack the enzyme that causes Craig's allergy. Mom kept saying we'd find a cat in a shelter, but not a Devon.
Bah, I'm sad I'm leaving now. If we get another dog, I won't have long to be with it before I'm gone for four months.
Sent in a question about my umemployment claim and the 599 program. Hopefully they'll approve me this time and I'll get to take the money with me to Juniata. I'm not sure about getting a job at the school with a 17-credit workload. The UI money would help with tuition payments. I could probably have all the payments for the year done before THIS year is out. I really need that.
