It’s-a-Comin’!

Real World Mom’s new blog design has been chosen–and customized by the most talented Code Wizard/WordPress guy around!  Now I have to make the time to do my part–the tweaking/adding code, etc.  I’m hoping to have it ready to roll out sometime this week (just wish me luck in finding a few more hours in the day)!  Stay tuned loyal friends!

Some Updates

Took my college placement test last week.  As expected, I did crappy on the math portion.  So, I have to take two–count ‘em, two–extra math classes to catch my butt up to speed.  I’m planning on taking the first one in the fall semester and the second one during winter break.  Then, I’ll take the last class in the spring semester and be finished with math!

My orientation/registration appointment is on July 7, and I can’t wait!  I’ll be an official college student then!  :-)

In other news…

Real World Mom continues to sport this “interim look”, due to the fact that I still haven’t decided on a new theme.  I have, however, narrowed it down to three options.  One of them would take a lot of tweaking, so if I choose that one, Tim will have a new project on his to-do list!

Work still sucks ass, but, thanks to a scheduling adjustment, it may now actually be bearable–for the most part.  “Gnatalie” and I have come to an unspoken understanding, so I no longer dread working with her.  Unfortunately, there is another “semi-manager” who is a major pain in the ass.  Seriously, this chick brings the morale of everyone around her down.  I haven’t quite figured out the best way to handle her…yet.

Testing
Tomorrow (Monday) is a big day for me. I’m going to take my placement test for college.

I know I’m going to screw up big-time on the math portion. For one thing, math and I never got along all that well. Sure, I can add and subtract (especially when we’re talking about percent-off sales!), but beyond that, my head tends to start hurting! Also, it’s been a long, freaking time since I did any ‘real’ math. I graduated from high school 22 years ago! Ugh.

The worst that can happen is I’ll score poorly on the test and be forced required to take a refresher course (or two), that will cost money and won’t give me any credits.

Then again, the best thing that could happen is a miracle, and I’ll somehow squeak by on the low-end of passing!

In any case, wish me luck! I’ll let you all know how it goes!

Exciting news! I’m in the process of moving Real World Mom to a new server (hosted by Timbury himself!) and a whole new look! So, if things look a little funky for a while, please bear with me!
