First Day Is Over

It's always a good thing to get the first day of school over with. Went to classes, got syllabi, saw how much books would cost, got parking sticker, updated student I.D.
Oh, and what would a first day of school be without a fire drill? Did I tell you that my physics class is on the 6th floor? BTW, I did make it UP the stairs to the 6th floor, for which I am sure I will be sore tomorrow. It's a truly easy way to get a cardiac workout in.
I also got a parking sticker to LOT 1, THE most coveted lot at the school. Last year I had lot 4 which wasn't even paved. Winter time when it was warm was especially fun in the mud.
I am thinking that I will get a companion for Carlton. He is such a slug and I am hardly any company to him when I have to keep pushing him off of my lap to do homework. I had a trial run yesterday with a cat whose Mommy was looking for a home for her, but she totally freaked out. That was stressful for me and the poor cat. I am going to ask for advice from shelters as to how to proceed.
I am totally lonely for my gf. After being a month with her in Florida, this apartment feels so empty. Imagine what I would feel like if I had left Carlton down there with her. I had been thinking of it because he is so bored here with only one window that overlooks a parking lot and me gone so much and busy the rest of the time. She told me that I would regret it if I left him. She was so right.
At least school and internship will get me out and around people. Pity there are no other single women in this apartment buiding that are my age, but then, I am an anomaly being in school at my age.
I took myself to the movies to see Dark Night yesterday. Great movie! I love Batman movies anyway, and I was surprised to like the Joker in this movie even more than the Jack Nicholson version. I was even more surprised that Batman's gf was killed. Or, former gf, but he didn't know it at the time. I also liked tha fact that he took the fall for the deaths in order for the city to have a human hero.
I totally lost my resolve to lose ten pounds in Florida. ACK! Seems every time I visit there I gain a few pounds which I fight to take off before I go there again. I wish someone would invent an appetite supressant that was organic and good for you. I love food too much, never mind that I eat to keep myself company.
