wordinistaHoly crud, I have not updated this thing in a month. Wow, that's a special kind of fail.
Of course, much of the past month was spent fretting over my Strategic Management course. Which is now over, and in which I got a shiny B, so I'm pretty relieved about that. My final course in the program is a business writing elective, and I'm taking that now (courses last eight weeks instead of sixteen). So things should be a little less insane.
Speaking of less insane, or rather the opposite of less insane, I'm going to apply to UCF's Texts and Technology PhD program. The application process has been a niiiiightmare because my GRE scores are over five years old, and the department head said she could waive the five-year limit if I could produce an official copy of my scores. Alas, ETS does not hold on to scores that long, UCF mysteriously lost the official copy I had sent to them when I took the stupid thing in the first place, and GWU doesn't keep hard copes. I'm MILDLY annoyed with the program over this, because I could have signed up to take the GRE again, but instead wasted time running around on a wild goose chase.
Bronte... is not doing well. At this point, I think George and I have agreed to keep her on her meds and keep her comfortable for as long as she's with us. She isn't in any pain, and she's eating and drinking, but she's lost a LOT of weight, and her coat is very raggedy. I need to make a vet appointment to let him know that we're just going to keep the meds up and keep her comfy.
Ah, so that's why I haven't updated in a month. Whining about school and depressing news about my cat. Well then. At least I know now.
