Just one more final left and the semester will be over! Craziness of the good kind:)

Can I just say that the United States Postal Service is a monopoly that would not be allowed if it wasn’t owned by the government! That is how I feel about it today, oh and DHL shipping isn’t high on my list either today. If everything in my world could be shipped UPS that really would be ideal. Nothing against postal workers or delivery people from other companies, it isn’t the people just the system doesn’t work too great. Maybe UPS could give lessons? :)

Oh all that to say that the shoes I ordered online didn’t arrive today, because the postal person came while I was gone (which did happen to be way earlier in the day than they normally deliver my mail). Not really the postal person’s fault though, since the shoes were technically shipped with DHL who had a tracking message yesterday saying they were out for delivery which later changed to having handed them to the postoffice. Which made me have to call and talk to someone who was like oh yeah we get this question all the time. Hmm…. maybe they should fix that?

Okay none of that probably made any sense, I think the real issue is just that I was bummed about the shoes and tired and stressed from finals week. I think I will feel much better later, after my last final:)

Studying bunches for finals…. Just thought I would share a picture of Pounce hanging out with me (he has been climbing up on my back lately every chance he gets!)

Hope everyone had a great weekend! – Good luck to anyone else taking finals!

Ben & I went shopping this afternoon, despite the crazy pre-Christmas crowds. Oh and the crowds were definitely crazy;) Despite the crowds we managed to get me two winter hats (I definitely needed a hat, the second is just because I couldn’t decide which was cuter). Plus we managed to pick up a suitcase for me. The funny part about the suitcase is that we looked a lot of places for one, and at the last store we found one that didn’t have any tags on it. So we looked to see if there was another like it and there wasn’t so after wandering around we finally got some assistance from a store clerk. Well the store clerk had no idea how much it was so after a little bargaining I managed to get the suitcase for definitely less than it probably would have been with the tags on it. Definitely a nice deal (and I don’t feel bad about getting it for less, since we had such a terrible time getting any service at all to begin with).

Right now Axel is trying to kill the vacuum cleaner. He really hates it, and lets us know every time that we have to vacuum by attacking the vacuum afterwards. And I am not joking, he really does attack it. He stands there and will use his front paw to strike at it with his claws out. If I didn’t feel so bad about how much he hates it, it almost would be cute that he trys to attack it…
