Not much new...

I don't really have anything to say, except that my allergies are going crazy. I have been sneezing and blowing my nose all evening. I think it is the change in weather.

Anthony and I have decided to stay home this year for Thanksgiving. My mom wasn't too happy about that, since this holiday is a very big deal in our family, but we decided to try it on our own this year. Every year we go to Houston, or some other place to celebrate and this time we want time to spend with ourselves.

Our friends, Shawn and Sarah, came over last night, and they brought their dog, Serisse, over to meet Max. I had them meet with our glass porch door between them at first, with Max outside. That way they were able to see each other without doing much by way of scaring each other. My plan worked! After a couple of minutes of them staring at each other through the glass, I opened the door, while Shawn was holding Serisse and I caught Max and held him as well. They started sniffing each other, and after a few minutes of that, I let Max go. After that, Max sort of kept his distance, except the time when he sniffed Serisse's butt. Nothing crazy happened, and I am thankful for that! All in all it was a lovely night.

Anthony has become a pretty good cook. He has somewhat taken over the role of cooking for reason's unknown to me, and for them most part, he has done really well. For when Shawn and Sarah came over, he made beef Stroganoff, and even though he pureed the onion and bell pepper in our Kitchen Aid food processor, it turned out delicious!

I'm ba-ack!

So much for keeping up with my blogging...

I was threatened a few days ago that someone (I won't mention any names, but you know who you are) would unsubscribe to my blog, since I haven't been writing anything. Well that changes now!



So, here goes...I am finally in my last month of school! My last class will be on December 4th, and then I will be walking across the stage on the 15th. The two classes that I am taking are Moral Issues in Society, in which I will complete a 20-30 page essay describing a moral issue, and coming up with a definitive proposal of what should be done about said issue. My chosen topic is human cloning. I don't know what should be done about it yet. I will however post my essay once I am done with it, and by then I will have figured something out. Speaking of which you should all vote on my brand new poll! It is just to the left of this entry. Go ahead! I'll wait.

The second class I am taking is History of Mexican Americans. This class is ok, but it wasn't my first choice. Since they weren't offering my first choice this semester, and this was the only class that would have fulfilled my requirements, I decided to go ahead and take it.


Some of you may already know this, but I am getting over being sick with food poisoning. I made a burrito Friday for lunch with faulty beans (meaning I kept them in the fridge too long). Late Friday night I had to take a trip the the bathroom, and kept going back until 8 the next morning. after that I was finally able to keep water down, so I progressed to sprite. a little after lunch-time, I ate most of a saltine cracker, followed by maybe half a cup of Campbell's soup later that evening. This morning I surprised myself by eating 3 saltine crackers. For lunch I ate a few bites of rice. So I have decided that I should continue to be on the "sick-diet." It might compete with the Southbeach and Atkins!

(I am, of course, kidding.)

For those of you who are interested, Max, our feline friend has been very cute lately!


Recently I also gave Max a bath, and he wouldn't speak to me for days! But he is now nice and sparkling clean!
