All I can do is laugh . . .

I realize that this is once again a highly off-topic post, BUT the South Hall Lobby is so sad it's down right hilarious. It looks like a bad attempt at a Hotel Lobby.

If you are in the area you really need to come see it to believe it. TRUST ME.

Once again I leave you with the thought that most closely apporximates its appearance: HILARIOUS!

Short Update

Just a quick note to let you all know that the new job reading is going very well as long as my voice holds out. Right now I'm reading management texts, but later on I get to read of an English class. :)

and now time for a South Hall update:

The new furniture has arrived. It is a lot better than I was expecting, aside from the fact that they seem to have forgotten about the couch concept and there is a proliferation of "waiting-room" chairs which apparently belong to a table that has not yet appeared. There lots of fun looking gigantic cardboard boxes in the lobby yesterday and this morning but now there gone. sad. Oh, and there going to put chairs in the "gym" portion of the lobby. lol. HISTERICAL.

until the next time . . .

Let freedom ring

I find it highly appropriate that as we approach Independence day I can unofficially announce my freedom from housekeeping. [Insert gigantice grin and lots of dancing around]

I am moving up the food chain. :)

I'm going to read books onto tape for the Learning Support Center. The total number of hours is thus far uncertain, but likely almost 8 hours throughout July. :)

Whether this is the end of this blog or not still remains to be determined.

I haven't turned in my "Student Employment Termination Card" yet. I could get another one and turn it in today, but I have been carrying that card with me almost everywhere I go in my journals for over two weeks. Alas, I didn't bring it with me today. sigh.

But that is a minor thing.

Tuesday!

Oh, and a very Happy (early) Fourth of July to everyone. :)
