Well, it's about quarter after 4 right now and I've got about 45 minutes before my class starts and I think I've had a very productive couple of hours today. I already had my stuff done for tonight's class yesterday (it only involved doing an outline for our group discussion tonight) and I have a copy printed off for everyone in the group on pretty purple paper (yay alliteration ;p). Today I got my 2 chapters read in our "What About Me?" book for tomorrow's class, and I just have to scan thru the textbook chapters before class tomorrow and get an idea of what my group is supposed to be discussing in class.
Tomorrow morning, I'm heading over to Northridge from about 10-12 am to get started with my volunteer work for my "Intro to Exceptional Children" class. We're supposed to do 10 hours of volunteer work/time with students (or adults, if that's what you choose) with special needs before the end of the quarter. Our response paper for our 1st experience is due tomorrow, but she said that she'd understand if we weren't able to get them in on time, but we just had to let her know. Since my 1st plans had fallen thru, I talked to my Mom about contacting the lady she knew that ran the reading program at Northridge. Well, she's not the one that does that anymore, but she did have the e-mail of the new lady. I left her a message yesterday asking if there might be any possiblity of me getting in to volunteer Thursday morning. She called me back around 9 last night, but I missed her call. She called me again around 9 this morning to get the details figured out, but I missed her because I was in the bathroom getting ready.
I figured I should call her before I headed to campus today so that I knew I would have time to talk with her, so I just gave her a call when I was finished getting dressed. We set up a time for tomorrow morning so now I don't have to worry about that anymore. I still won't be able to get the paper done before class tomorrow, but she told me to just remind her why it's late when I turn it in. Hopefully I get that done on Friday. I should be very possible and that way I don't have to worry about it over the weekend, because I have plenty of other things going on this weekend.

Saturday is the day that Jake and I are going to the Lima Symphony Orchestra. The "name" of the show is something about spring, so hopefully it's music that is spring-y and fun. I'm really looking forward to this, but I haven't really figured out what to wear. It's an occasion that calls for dressy, and that means that I'll have to dig thru my clothes to find something dressy yet comfy. And that also means that I'll have to force Jake to buy some dress pants and possibly a dress shirt (if he doesn't have one already). I'm not looking forward to that experience. He can be so picky sometimes.
Sunday, of course, is the day of my goddaughter's baptism. I still haven't gotten her a gift. I'm hoping that maybe Saturday I can go visit "Gifts of Joy" and see what they've got. I know it's cutting it a little close, but that's probably the only day that I can get there while they're still open. :( So, I really hope that I can find something for her there because I won't have really any time to look elsewhere.
While I'm excited about Sunday, I'm also a little disappointed. I heard that (in this church) the godparents don't even go stand up at the front with the parents and the godchild. Not that I'm a big fan of standing in front of a bunch of people (possibly a bunch of people I don't even know), but I was looking forward to actually participating in the ceremony, and now that I've been told that I won't be standing up front with them, I don't know what part I'm expected to play.
