Email Obsession

I don't know the last time I checked my email as often as I have been since Friday. I know that it was such a long shot that he would know something by that afternoon and there was very, very little chance that he would be working over the weekend. And yet, I still have been checking my email once an hour to see if I've got an email from Graham. I'm just so excited to know if there's a baby out there for me! Here's hoping that I know something tomorrow! AH!

Also, I had a reader ask me to disable CAPTCHA. This is the first time that I've been able to sit down and a University computer (blogger doesn't like my laptop and won't allow me to make changes from there) to fix it. I think I have done it. That's a big think though. If someone wanted to post a comment to see if I have in fact disabled it that'd be swell.

Anyway, I've got a few pictures to post up soonish. Old pictures that should have been up a week or so ago, but as a busy, busy University student it's been hard to find the time to sit and upload them to blogger. But I'm gonna do it in the next few days just so I have something to take my mind off of not knowing much.

Patience and How Not to Deal with It

The outdoor run arrived today! I haven't had a chance to set it up or take a look at it as it didn't arrived until about half past six this evening at which point I was already out of the house for Tuesday's game. But, I have no classes and no responsibilities tomorrow, so I'll probably set it all up then.

I haven't heard back from Graham since last Thursday when we were talking about heights for the run. So, what did I do? Emailed him. Haha! Patience has never been my strongest attribute and I find myself able to wait less and less the more excited I get. At this point, I'm pretty darn excited so I'm proud of myself for not emailing him yesterday. Haha!

My guess is that he doesn't really have any news for me. Not because he didn't look at the board or check up, but because the puppy I will be receiving (if I receive a baby puppy) might have been born on Sunday. I was checking out the calender and the puppies born from last Sunday (February 5) to this Sunday (February 12) will be six weeks old around March 23. So in all likelihood, he doesn't know which puppy I'll be receiving not only because there's a good chance that it's not even born yet but also because he's checking to see if there are any older puppies available first.

While I know he probably knows as much as I do at this point (well...he might know a little more seeing as he's the supervisor and all) I still had to email him. I found myself unable to quit.

One more piece of exciting news to say before I sign off and go to sleep. I talked to the head of the school of Psychology today about bringing a puppy into classes. He was very supportive of it and said that he thought it was a good idea. But (there's always a but isn't there?) he had to check with someone else in the University first (you'll have to forgive me, I can't quite remember who he said). But he's such a nice guy and said that he didn't see any problem with it at all. So, that's good! Now all that needs to happen is for the woman who books appointments for the head of the school of English to get back to me.
