Fundamentals


" You've got to get the fundamentals down, because otherwise the fancy stuff is not going to work"... -The Last Lecture

Somehow this quote works on about 12 levels today for me.....

Well I survived I took my Economics final today.. I was disappointed in myself because I missed getting my quiz average by 1 point..... hopefully it won't screw up my whole grade. Truthfully it wasn't my best effort their were multiple factors in the whole scene. But for better or worse it is all over. Now next week I get to begin the 8 week nightmare that is acct 100 and then I can have my diploma that I actually worked for and earned. I am already angry because my new acct prof is extremely pushy and has a laundry list of stuff for the 8 weeks and wants 20 hours a week of my time literally in the syllabus. It is a 100 level class and he is a pushy middle aged man who thinks highly of himself... he reminds me of my father. It could be a really long 8 weeks.

Moving on though.....Tonight Sam and I had date night..... we went to a movie his favorite thing to do and I picked Indiana Jones... our compromise..... trust me it is better if I pick Sam picks weird movies..... well it was a rough night

There are so many days I think I know Sam and I love him and every once in awhile he will throw me for a loop with some obsurce thought or idea...  Tonight he had several. Just about the time I think we are settling back into coupledom..... sharing space again he will throw weird stuff out there. My personality doesn't let me " let go" easily of anything... hence I am type A  but learning to share space is harder this time. Why? was it the longer deployment? My grouchy nature these days? My alpha dog instincts?

I'm glad we went and by the way for those of you out there who like Indiana Jones it is a great movie just as good as all the others.....

I'm glad we went that we are making the effort to be a couple again even if it is disjointed right now.  I have faith that the harmony that is " Us" will return it was back so I thought but, apparently this is my summer of fundamentals for both home and school so I guess I will work on that and then the "fancy" stuff will work better or maybe in my direction..... The universe seemed aligned and then it didn't I guess that is just life.
