"I remember ... the Alamo."
Each week for my history class I have been assigned to read a chapter. This isn’t that bad. I finished the chapter yesterday afternoon.
However, I am ready to take the test – NOW. It would be nice to take the test while I still have some of the information in my little gray cells. But, no; this is not the way this instructor operates.
I have to read four chapters and then take four tests. I can take one a day, but who really cares? My point is this: I will have read four long chapters full of names, dates, places, and events and the tests will not be made available online until the week of September 6 – 9. Umm … yea … I’ll remember the urban societies of Mesoamerica then …. Sure thing! Just ask ;)

I checked Guido’s stitches this morning and they had come out! There was a gaping crater in his arm, so back to Dr. English we went. She got us right in and looked at his arm. She said we could let it heal like that or she could put a staple in it. I opted for the staple because I think that will help keep infection out.
So, while Guido sat in my lap, she put a staple in his arm. Yep; right there in my lap and he never made a sound, he only moved a tiny bit. He is the sweetest, gentlest friend. After the staple, she gave him another antibiotic shot just for good measure. She said if the staple comes out, we can just let it heal on its own. If that doesn’t happen, we will return in ten days to have the staple removed.
Here it is:

Chastity is right about the movie ! Can't you take notes about things you think might be on the test and have them next to you when test time comes ?

Guido is such a good boy. I can't believe he let your Vet do that! Glad to hear your mom is coming home!

I am not really a big fan, but we watched it a few days ago. Gary was going around the house saying...Hey Chastity....I remember the Alamo...lol

I just remember Pee Wee saying "This is a picture of me with my bike. This is a picture of me WITHOUT MY BIKE!!". That cracked me up! Too bad he turned out to be such a pervert.
