The Wonder of Today!

Today:

1) I got through a whole day of work - not pain free, by any stretch of the imagination, but 8 hours nonetheless! YIPPEE!

2) I found my 30-Day Bus Pass! YES! YES! WOOOOOHOOOO! That sucker is $65, and it didn't expire till June 17 @ 11:59 pm. I lost it on Monday, and have been praying to find it since! YAY!

3) I got financial aid! Actually, I found out about this on Saturday morning. I've been offered a grant and two loans (one subsidized, one unsubsidized). The grant is automatically accepted because it's from UNLV. I'll definitely take one loan. I'm seriously considering taking both - taking both would mean that I could get through the year without a roommate. And I do like having my space. :o) But the great news is that I got financial aid! YAY!

4) It got over 100 degrees in Vegas today. It's still 105. I left the A/C off today, to see how hot the apartment would get. I turned the A/C on 2 1/2 hours ago, and it's still over 90 in here. **sigh** I would have put the thermostat just under 90 anyway, if I'd left it on. It's not unbearable. It's just taking a LOT longer to cool down than I thought it would. Experiment. Experiment. It can't be cheaper for the thing to be running constantly for 3 hours trying to cool the place down, rather than maintaining it around 85 all day....right?

5) I really like having my own space. :o)
