stopping by

luckily the day following the 3 hours of my stupid class went better.
went to yoga, worked out a little. was going to lift today but decided against it since i was running short on time.

Got up to the lab to see Joann (the lab instructor im TAing for). She didn't know i was doing this, so she got REALLY excited to find out she had help for the summer. I helped her set up the benches and but the extra stock away. I prepped around 50 plates to incubate for Wednesday. Cleaned up between the two labs and reset everything up, cleaned everything up afterwards. Today's labs were slow since it was the intro lab, so i wasn't needed for much. I did stay for both labs, which i probably won't end up needing to do every time, but i did today since it was the first day and i needed to talk to joann after class. She definitely needs me for the first lab, though.
It was fun. I got to demonstrate how to streak a plate to one half of the room. Wooho! easy. but its fun because i know all but 3 or 4 people from the first lab, and from the 2nd, i know two of the guys really well (they're anatomy TAs with me). and its not as stressful as anatomy.
So i'm excited. i was there for almost 5 hours and it flew by really quickly. Which is good when you're getting paid.


Ryann is still without a phone, and she's picking mom and dad up from the airport tomorrow. I stopped by her house on my way home tonight (i still can't really believe that i can simply STOP BY her house now!!!) and gave her my cell phone to use in case flights change or something. i was trying to explain to her how to use it- check voicemail and whatnot if mom calls and she misses it. she seemed a little flustered.
I stayed there for almost 3 hours talking to her (joseph's out of town this week). It was a good way to end the day.

tomorrow's plan is to get up, workout at home, therapy, and then my real job for as long as i can stand being there. Mom asked me to make dinner tomorrow, and i have no idea what im going to do, or if i'll even be home from work yet because i dont know exactly when they'll get home. So that's annoying. we dont have much in the house right now... i could give them tuna salad or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. or eggs. we have some apples left. Thats what ive been doing so i don't have to go grocery shopping. haha. i dont think they'd appreciate that as much as i dont mind it, though. oh well.


ew. i have to read for philosophy tomorrow, too... bummer.
