will i or won't i?

so, i think i'm gonna do it. sign up for physics, that is. it's been a long time coming. an entire year, in fact... since i attempted to sign up last year & it turned out i needed my transcripts, blah blah blah. eternal procrastinator, i am. but seriously, does physics sound like FUN to you? HELL NO! i mean, unless you're an idiot - or super brilliant with math. it freaks me out, taking a class. i was never that great at math & i don't know anything about physics (that would be the reason for taking the class...) plus, who wants to go to work & then to school? not me. NOT ME!!! ...but i'm gonna give it a try - just in case it works out.

i've been tossing the idea around (going back to school) for about 9 years now. been pretty non-committal about it for the reasons stated above. but i realized this past week that going back to school might make me happy. or, the results could make me happy. i was watching a second season episode of paul & jaime (mad about you) this past week where jaime decided to go back to school at 30 & i thought, maybe i can do it too. isn't that lame? if this tv character can do it, so can I! but it worked. until that point, i'd kind of given up. i'd already checked the city community college & physics was full... same shit as last year. but i kept at it & found a community college with some spots.

what the hell am i talking about? anyway, physics. signing up tomorrow.

not much else going on. the 8 new folks start in about 2 weeks & that freaks me out quite a bit. had a decent week at work - lots of good conversations. had a follow-up w/ the doc about the mri. turns out it's just bicep & rotator cuff tendinitis. good that nothing's torn. bad that it still causes me pain. oh well. he said i may never be able to resume all the activities i was doing before. that puts a damper on things...

celebrated d's birthday earlier this week. fancy italian dinner that ended with a roach running across our table and up the wall. pretty awesome. happy b'day, d.

sorry this is lame. all i can think about is finding some good ice breakers for the newbies. got any ideas??
