RIP Peli

My fish died today.  He has been on a slow decline ever since I returned from South Carolina.  I am really hoping that it wasn't because my dad appears to have overfed him while I was gone.  Every time I walk into my room I have to do a double take when I don't see Peli's tank sitting on my desk.  I was pretty attached to that little fish.  Why do my fish always die so soon?! Maybe I should take this as a sign. 

My dad and I had some nice bonding time over tacos.  It was just us two for dinner and we had a great conversation about work and school and life.  He mentioned that my mom had told him about my blog post about his negativity and that he was trying to be less negative.  Although I'm glad that he now has a heads up about it, I feel bad that he seems to have taken it to heart.

I finished up with my Educational Psychology online class today.  Now I have to deal with three more weeks of my TESOL class that is so confusing and over my head.  Since it's only  a four week long online class, there are assignments every day AND a 10-15 page research paper.  Oye Vey.  Pretty much all of my time is consumed by school work and actual work, but I'm somewhat okay with that.  I am managing to keep busy during this friendless summer and making some good money at the same time.  

For some reason I have become very concerned about wasting time lately.  The days are slipping away way too quickly.  There is so much that I want to accomplish each day and not enough time to do it.  Do I get ahead in my summer class? Do I read my book? Should I actually allow myself to sit back and do nothing? It is an ongoing inner struggle.
