Finals are OVER!!! (and so are all the good shows:()

Ahhhhhhh. That's my huge sigh of relief. I'm not sure who is more excited that finals are over, me or Dan. Considering he was already studying for the DAT last night, not less than 12 hours after his last final was over, I'm guessing it's me. This last week has been a doosy. I am basically a single mom when Dano has a big test or finals and every time it just makes me wonder how in the heck single moms do that every day of their lives. My hat goes off to them. It's so lovely to be regular people again. Last night we actually went out to eat and run errands with all 3 of us!!!! It was really so nice.

So here's where we are with the Dental School application process. Today Dan is driving (with Connor no less) to all of the higher education institutions that he has attended (6!!) to request transcripts be sent into the organization that governs the dental school application process (for dental school you fill out one major application and you tell them which dental schools you want it sent to. It's kind of nice because you don't have to worry about transcripts and letters of recommendation for 30 schools. You just do it once and they submit it to all of the schools). Once transcripts are requested it's a waiting game until Dan's spring 2008 grades are released (hopefully early next week). When those are released he will go in and enter every single course Dan has ever taken, when he took it, where he took it and what his grade is. Then we will press the little e-submit button at the bottom of the screen and it will officially be sent to the schools. But, since he hasn't taken the DAT (Dental Aptitude Test) his application will be put on hold until he takes the test. He will take the DAT on July 21st. After that we're in business!!

So on a totally unrelated note: Whatcha think about the season finales that have been on recently? My thoughts? Oh, okay, if you insist!
Let's start with the Bachelor. Really, Shayne? Should we take bets as to when that relationship breaks up? Come on, a 23-year-old actress from LA? You really think she's the, "lets get married and have kids and stay together forever" type of girl? Her own DAD even said she was only on the show to be on TV. Bad choice Matt. Not that I think Chelsey was much better, but at least they had a 1/2 a shot at being together for more than 6 months. Oh well, at least we have the Bachelorette to watch now...
On to the Office. I thought it was pretty good, but I guess the general consensus is that Andy sucks and ruined everything. I actually thought that scene was pretty funny as Angela wouldn't even stand up and Andy brought his parents and everything. But, I guess we didn't get to see Jim propose so that sucked. But the whole Kevin being "slow" storyline was hilarious and I loved the very end with Angela and Dwight. Good stuff.
Desperate Housewives- Somewhere along the way, the Desperate Housewives writers just gave up on this show being even remotely realistic. Come on, how many people on one street can get held at gun point? How many bad guys can there be? Every time they kill off one bad guy another one shows up. Don't get me wrong, I'm still thouroughly entertained by this show, but it's getting a little out of hand. Oh and what's the deal with the very end when they fast forward 5 years? Is the show going to start 5 years down the road when the season returns? That's weird, don't ya think?
And finally, Grey's Anatomy. A pretty good season finale. Not much noteworthy here, but Dan and I were cracking up at the end where Meredith apparently builds a house with candles on the top of the cliff. Sure. And then Derrick just leaves her to go find Rose? What happened to phones? Other than that I was pretty entertained by this one. Dan thinks Meredith gained weight. I couldn't tell either way.
Anyway, well those are my thoughts for now. Have a great weekend everyone!

Loves to all.
