Slacking in the blog department!

So I realized I hadn't blogged in awhile but this is probably due to school starting. Even my time on facebook has substantially decreased as well.
Well to update you on the happenings around here there is quite a bit going on.

Point 1- All the students at the college are flustered in their first few weeks of school, trying to figure everything out and get organized. Usually this is not a hard task but our schools web system is down. So I should right now be pouring over readings or writing papers but since the web system is down, we have no way of accessing our information for our courses that we need. It has been down since Sunday and is quite an inconvienence for some of us whose content for courses is on there. I should have printed out what I needed on Saturday when I could retrieve it all, but I figured in a few days it'll all still be there....little did I know the whole system would crash.

Point 2- We still haven't moved, the appliances for the house still have not arrived (though I have the fridge), but the rest of the appliances are a no show. They said by this thursday some of them should be here and well that's tomorrow, the rest are coming the week after....we'll see, I may be too pessimistic to believe them.

Point 3- Wal-mart's Grocery section opens tomorrow! Yay! Actually I am being sarcastic and am not as excited as the two women I overheard while walking through the store today. They were on their cellphones talking to their friends telling them the exciting news that Wal-mart's Grocery department will be open for business tomorrow! I mean I was shocked that people actually do that...(I know I didn't call anyone and tell them that)

Point 4-We are getting some exciting music groups to the city. The blue man group is touring through Canada and gracing us with their presence and as well Weird Al Yankovic! I don't find this at all exciting because honesty these are the type of performers that probably couldn't get booked in the bigger venue facilities in the major cities, so they are gracing us with their presence. Weird Al does a version of Green Day's "American Idiot", his is however calling it "Canadian Idiot"....how does someone make money off of these songs? Seriously! but I will probably buy his album because I sang along to his songs "Amish Paradise" and "Phony Calls"....do you remember those ones?

Point 5- It is starting to get cold out. We are suppose to get frost tonight. It's suppose to go down to minus two but I always remember that it never snows here until Halloween, so we are safe at least for a few weeks.
