Books are ridiculously expensive at the bookstore and the store is understaffed for this time of the year!! Providing books for 2 universities and only having 3-4 tellers open. I'm kinda lucky though, my women and law class doesn't have a text. There is a printed version of the aritcles we will need, but they are all available online at Legaltrac as well. I'll just print them off myself. I have a full ink cartridge in my printer and 3 in available. I also got an email about my gender studies text, she wrote for me to make an offer, so I said $30 for it. I've seen other people selling it for that much, so I don't think it is unreasonable. Hopefully I can still go to the used book store and get my research methods book. On to more exciting news. Sam...crazy Sam.....put 2$ into a VLT machine the other day and won $400.00!!Then he took $10 of those dollars and put it into another machine and pulled out another $200.00!! He bought me my new Norton Antivirus as a surprise (mines almost expired). He bought me coffee and offered to take me out to dinner, but I had just eaten, so he gave me $20 to photocopy my crim theory book. (I borrowed it from a girl for $30, she paid $60+tax). I came home the other day and he had bought a 27" flat screen t.v and a home theatre system (surround sound and everything). The entertainment unit cracked under the weight of the stuff and barely fits in. He told me he had to take the lip of the top shelf of to insert it into the spot for the television! He bought a couple of movies the last night to- Flightplan and FreedomLand. He also rented final destination 3 for us as well. The last couple of days I have been treated like a Queen!! (well...at least a spoiled princess). It's been great.!! :0) I think I'm going to work Wednesdays instead of Tuesdays. I called work and left a message. I'm so tired!! Going to class all day and then immediately to work is to hard. On wednesdays I only have one class. This year is going to be so much reading and so much work!! I hope my student line of credit gets approved soon. I filled out a late payment slip so that I don't get kicked out of my classes when I don't pay on Wednesday. I now have until the 30th of September to pay. I went to my senior seminar on Monday. It was great!! I really like the proff. She also took a vote and changed the class from 7-9:50pm to 6:30-9:20pm. It's all about the study of food. The production, consumption, management, regulations, health and safety, etc. My friend Kelly is also in the class. She lives down the street, so it gives me someone to walk home with and know in class. We are also in the same group fo rour major group assignment. I took Professor Machum for Society and Ecology last year, so I already have some knowledge about the stuff we are studying. Today I went to my gender studies class and a girl from my modern soc class last year had just signed up. It's always nice when you know a couple people in the class. BTW is anyone in need/want for a 13" t.v? We have one in the bedroom, but now will have the 20" one for in there. Let me know. Anyway I am starving. I really have to figure out a way to eat when I have 3 classes right in a row and in different buildings, tyhe not eating anything is not working. My gender studies professor is somewhat of a.....well....."flake"...there is no other way to describe her. She is all about group work and us getting to know each other. I don't want to be tested on Joes Birthday or something, I'd like to learn about the study of gender and the different theoretical branches associated with that study....whatever I guess....there's always one :). Snowball is doing great!! She follows me all around the apartment and comes over for pats and everything. I think I'll go make something to eat and watch some t.v on the much larger t.v set that we now have...... thanks for the suggestions of girly movies, keep them coming!!

Holy crap!! That Sam is lucky!!
And you, must be nice to be treated like a Queen!! Sam is such a nice guy!! So thoughtful, eh!!
I would love to have a 13" TV in my bedroom, if it is still available!!( I don't have one in my room, and I just got one for Cole's room)
I think your Mom got a letter for you student loan. So everything is good there.
Have a great day!!
Sue
It's yours!!! :0)
I'll just give it to mom the next time she comes up or the next time I come to SJ, whichever is sooner. I just bought one of my text books for 30$. I looked at the bookstore and it is 75$ + tax. This saves me money and waiting in that line. I think I will have to go down on Monday though, I haven't heard from anyone about the research text.
