I got a gosh dang, motha friggin A on my sociology class!

Did you hear me??? Here, let me say it louder!

I got an:

I worked my little tushie off to get that grade! Whew! I’m happy!

Now… I’m scheduled to take two classes for the spring semester: Deviance (another sociology class) and World Civilizations (history). I was scheduled for one more, Cultural Anthropology. But I dropped that. I think I would put way too much pressure on myself by attempting three classes.

I’m caught between the desire to meet all the requirements for a degree in Social Sciences and the need to maintain a normal life. I’ve had to remind myself that I have a full time job, play in two bands, have five children and a girlfriend, and occasionally need a day to breathe… and maybe a minute or two to update my website. So, that’s why I decided to drop the third class. I think I can handle two classes, as I did in the fall semester (Business Ethics and Small Business Management). My only other concern is PAYING for them.
