Okay, so this is the long-awaited new member of the Saananian household: Korden's Red Lady. Lady for short. Her eyes aren't *really* cerulean blue, that's just the camera's wonkiness. It's also how her ladyship is spending her time currently: sulking in her nest because she's got to sleep alone and no one wants to pay any attention to her.
She behaved almost perfectly (poo on the floor and hour of squeaking left out) today: she's been quiet and collected, slept all through the car ride without peeing on Saan and sis. She did chew on her dog tag cillinder (or tried to, with her five tiny teeth) and tried to eat her leash, but the leash-eating got pretty boring after ten minutes, so she decided to be a good little puppy and walk neatly next to Saan.
Saan's tired again. She should probably stop sitting behind screens and books so much. And there'll probably be little sleep tonight. Puppy's coming tomorrow evening and there's Pimp My Pants at Saan's school before that. Excitement galore, in short.
Saan's nearly pissing herself, mainly because she hasn't been near a toilet since nine am, but also because: - she had to stand up for ninety minutes - sit down in the most uncomfortable theathre chair for the two hours before - she shouldn't have drunk two large glasses of lemonade on an already full bladder.
Reason for all of this is her sister, who had her proclamation today. Meaning she graduated from primary school. And had to bring up this little play, which was funny enough to make Saan really want to run from the hall, but one of the players was Joeri, as in "I am Joeri. I wish to be addressed as Joeri. I'm in charge of security this evening. There are three rules. Rule one: cell phones are turned off. I've got handcuffs. I've got pepper spray. Anyone got trouble with that, I solve it *my* way. Rule two: no gum in the hall. I've got handcuffs. I've got pepper spray. Anyone got trouble with that, I solve it *my* way. Last rule: everyone remains seated, even if it's crappier than ever. Anyone got trouble with that, I solve it *my* way."
Saan's demonstrated her DIY skills today by putting together the... (for lack of a better word) pen for the puppy, which her dad picked up this morning. Saan was still sleeping off her exams. And seeing as it's still standing, Saan's probably not completely hopeless.
Tomorrow, Saan & Pops will have a whole new list of things to do, some in preparation for the puppy, some not. Saan's still looking for a pair of jeans and a name for the puppy.
Saan's irregular sleeping habits still haven't worn off, as she fell asleep this afternoon and didn't feel well enough to get up until early evening.
Saan's finished her exams today! No more studying for more than two months! Since she forgot; we passed the 2,500 site views mark a while a go. Yay!
She doesn't know her results yet, but she celebrated anyway by going shopping for the still unnamed puppy, which will be picked up Sunday afternoon. She found two 'cocker' bowls, in which the puppy can hopefully eat and drink without getting all dirty. She still has to pick up newspapers collected by family members and go collect an order for a fence-like contraption in which she can put the puppy to play outside without it going to the poisonous plant infecting her garden through the fence between hers and her neighbour's. The brush she needs for the pup was sold out, too, so she needs to go back to the shop.Yeah, Saan's pretty excited. Saan's sis is sad because the puppy's coming the evening before she leaves for school camp.
Other news which happened during the exams: summer festival in Saan's school with Pimp My Pants and all sorts of other things this Sunday afternoon.
Now, where to find a pair of cheap jeans before Sunday?
Edit: Saan's made a new blog, just for self-entertainment purposes really. Now, who understands Saan's warped sense of humor and can find the link?
There is no post today because Saan's exams won't come to an end. Isolation has broken down her throat to the point that she sounds like she's eaten sandpaper, too.
There is no post today because Saan's currently buried somewhere under the pile of two term's worth of matrices, goniometry, limits and sequences. Someone send in a search team.
