Finally DONE!

I started this post last week and there was a serious computer malfunction :) For those of you that don't have facebook this will be news! I am done with my thesis!! Done with school, and I don't know if I will go back. I know it won't be anytime soon. I'm kinda sick of school. shhh, don't tell Sean. haha. I defended the thesis last Monday, did mad edits for 2 days, and turned it into the graduate office on Thursday. Of course it was later in the day, and the person that was to read it and sign the signature page was gone, but whatever. It was signed on Friday, and I made official copies on Monday, burned a CD with a MS Word version and a PDF version on it, and turned them all in! And I officially graduated on Saturday. Of course I didn't bother to go, went to the fair instead :) Some might wonder why I don't bother. I went to the first one, when I got my bachelor's degree for my Mom and Gram. Sat there in the gym for 2 hours, bored outta my skull, listening to someone babble on about something that I really didn't care about. Waste of time im my humble opinion. So I didn't go to the one when I got the first Master's degree. Still got the diploma, and didn't have to go through the crap. Fine with me. So I didn't bother with this one, cause I really do think it's a waste of time. So, onto even better news!! As I was a wits end looking for a job and actually contemplating going for my PhD, surprise! a phone call, outta the blue. I sent my resume into a company a friend works for, thinking nothing would come of it. Mostly because the company is about alternative energy and I'm more into development kinda stuff. But, becuase I did all this work on my thesis with GIS (computer mapping in normal people speak:) they wanted me to work for them. I will also be doing some policy stuff for them. Crazy how things happen. So within 2 weeks, I finished the thesis I didn't think I was going to, ANNDDDDDD I got an awesome job with an awesome company. We get to stay in the 'burgh, which I haven't decided if that's a good or bad thing :) The girls are here, and Sean will be finishing school here, so I guess, for now, it's a good thing.

Nothin' goin' on

I was looking at some pictures wondering what I could post on the blog. I've felt like quite the blogging slacker lately. While looking at the pic's I realized there AREN'T new ones. hmmmm. But then I thought, I've been busy! I've been working crazy hours in the computer lab, trying to get a computer model to run. A computer model that I have found won't work, at least not all the way. sigh. Luckily part of it will work, so I am able to complete my thesis. As for the girls and their usual antics, well, they haven't been here most of the summer. Sabrina is now the teenager that is never home cause she has all this cool stuff to do. She went on a mission trip to Tennessee and spent a week helping to fix homes. Abby went to Ocean City for a week with her Grammy and her cousins, she came back all tan. I'm so jealous. Then Sabrina went on a cruise with her mom and their family. And Abby's mom has been laid off for 2 weeks, so Abby has been spending time with her. So in the past 5 weeks, the girls have only been over one weekend. Not that I'm complaining. I haven't been home much myself. I've been scrambling to get this blasted thesis done, so I haven't even been home. Sean has called me a couple times while I've been in the computer lab at school wondering when I was coming home :) He's so sweet. I can't wait to be done with this blasted thing! Then I can move on and have a real job!
