So did you hear about the guy in Denver that got a lawsuit against him for sexually forcing himself on some girl he went home with (apparently she had planned on hooking up with him) - he doesn't remember anything before hitting the floor!  Apparently he was doing his version of "sleepwalking".  Can you believe that?  He was found 'not guilty' by a jury of his peers, and this girl was basically accusing him of raping her.  Oh well, I just thought it was crazy that he could have sex in his sleep and not know it!  I guess you can do a lot of things while you sleep...  Apparently it is a verified disorder and the guy got off the hook.

Then I heard that in the state of Oklahoma,  you can't be held accountable for anything you do for the first 5 minutes after you wake up.  Does that give you license to sock your wife if she tries to wake you up from snoring?  NO!    I guess these are weird things to dwell on, but it is a weird day! 

Off to Dallas tonight.  Doug and I finally get to go see the latest Harry Potter flick.  I know I won't be disappointed!  Have a great day!

Hey guys!  I am getting so antsy (sp??) with school!  3 more weeks and counting.  And I'm pretty sure I did okay on the revision of that paper.  My professor critiqued it for me and complimented me on it being much better.  I guess I just needed the time to make it better.  Yea for accounting!

I am moving to Tulsa in 1 month, and I couldn't be happier.  Except for the fact that Doug is a little scared about finding a job up there because of the supposedly depressed economy.  I guess I would rather stay optimistic about it, but it seems he is just hard set on staying in Dallas (where he already knows he has a job).  I understand his logic and the reason he might be afraid, but we made the decision together and he's got to stick to it.  I told him after all his attempts to get a job, if he still couldn't find one, I would move to Dallas.  It is much easier for me to find a job than him, and I would qualify for a transfer later after working for them for a while.  I haven't worked for them for one minute - so an immediate transfer is not an option - especially by January!  I have no idea what world he is living in!  But God knows I love him...

Everything is going great!  I have 3 more weeks of work, then I get two weeks off!  Believe it or not, I have never (in my entire college career) enjoyed 2 weeks off for Christmas.  I have always had to work full time during the school break to earn extra money.  I am looking forward to the time where I can pack in peace and enjoy time with my family. 

On a different note - I have training in Chicago for two weeks in January.  I have never been in the winter - who knows what the weather is like in January?  Should I bring snow boots?  I don't even own snow boots... on purpose!  I have lived in the South my whole life for a reason!

So I really don't have too much time to talk, but I really am bummed.  Not that I could possibly be more stressed out or anything, but the School of Accounting gives all the grad students a comprehensive exam they have to pass in order to graduate.  Yuck.  Anyway, I took it on Friday - it was really hard.  I got word yesterday that I didn't do well enough on it, and they are giving me until Wednesday to edit and/or rewrite it.  It is an essay based on a case they gave us.  It sucks because not only was the case hard, but I had a hard time finding anything resource-wise to back up my point of view.  I am just really disappointed at this point.  It makes me want to cry - I just want to be done already!  I know I have an opportunity to redeem myself, but if I don't do well enough, I'll have to take it again next semester!  Does that mean I don't graduate??  I guess I'll just see... pray for me that I do well.  I need this.  I already have a job lined up and graduation plans.  I ordered my announcements and told my entire family.  Not too much pressure, right?

Sorry I'm such a downer today.  My objective the next few days is not only to redo this essay to the best of my ability, but also to stay as positive as possible.  I need help with both.
