New Beginnings

So the last few days have been interesting.

Friday started Deuce's training class. I went to the vet first to get a copy of his medical due dates and to get his current weight. While we were waiting for someone to take him back to the scale, two dogs started to come into the front door, which scared him enough, but then out of nowhere a third dog came from the other direction and bombarded him and scared the shit out of him (literally). So he was stressed out by the time we got to PetSmart. I got there early to help him get used to where we were. When the other dog got to the training arena all hell broke loose. I don't know what came over him, but he just went ballistic. He was trying to kill the other dog. He was barking, lunging, growling, showing his teeth, the whole bit. It took him 15 minutes to calm down. I have never been so embarrassed in my life. By the end of the class he was calm enough to lay down next to the other dog, but he couldn't sniff her. He would lunge...but not viciously. So we have a lot of work to do for class. He goes to day care once a week and goes to Mom's house with her dog all the time...I'm not sure why he all of a sudden decided to become dog aggressive. He might have just been overly protective...who knows.

I also got a new computer. Dave (my laptop) is about 5.5 years old...and was about ready to throw him off the balcony. He was slow and crappy. So Mom and Dad gave me one of their old computers that they reformatted. Just like new! I named him McGee after Tim McGee on NCIS who is the computer guy on the show. :) So far McGee is awesome.

My final for Probability and Statistics was last Monday, and I thought I did fairly well on it. However, the two prior tests I didn't do too well, so I was scared that I didn't do well in the class. I have already failed this class once, so this was a big deal. Well, I finally got my grades in. I got an 84 on the final, and ended up with a B in the entire class! I have never been so excited for a B in my life!

Christmas is in just 11 days! I can't wait!
