Small Goals.

Antarctic would be the fifth ocean, which I didn't realize was officially an ocean, but apparently it is.

Officially it is called the Southern Ocean, and includes all seawater south of 60°S. This boundary lies well south of any continent besides Antarctica itself.

However, apparently Australian charts show the Southern Ocean extending to the south coast of Australia and the southwest coast of Tasmania, replacing significant areas officially defined as lying within the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean. Going by that definition, swimming in the Southern Ocean could actually be quite pleasant - assuming you can avoid the sharks which are omnipresent off the Australian coastline.

Anyway, my mom had a Roomba and it kept getting stuck under cabinets.

I've heard that cats will herd a Roomba into a small space by getting in front of it - and it thinks it's found a wall.

Come on, they don't have sharks - the salt-water crocodiles and the drop bears have eaten them all.

I've seen some seriously cute YouTube videos of cats riding Roombas.

The one in the shark costume?

That one I haven't seen. Must correct that.

It's the most delightful cat video I've seen.

To own a car that has less than 50,000 miles on it.

Current small goal: Get summer internship. Oh, I got through my mock interview that I was dreading! It went mostly well, although he did ask me to explain "the internet" and haha, I fumbled slightly. I'm in the computer networking program, this does not bode well. Also, the interviewer is currently working in the IT field, so it's not just some random person.

I sent out a cover letter/resume to a place that was recommended, but I need to send out more.

Cats riding Roombas are hysterical. I think I will go watch now.

My small goals:

To be able to afford TV service. I've been without it for over a year. I didn't think I would miss it, but I do. Yes, I know I can watch things on the internet, but I can't afford a Netflix subscription either.

To be able to go out to eat ... even just McDonald's or something. The only time I get to eat out is when someone else is buying. That has been my birthday/Mother's Day/Christmas present for two years now.

I have Netflix, but I honestly miss regular cable tv. Not sure why, but I just do. I want to at least get basic channels back because I love watching the Olympics, and it's not usually available to stream, other than short little clips. So I have until August. I guess that's my small goal.

I got my internship! After this summer I will be done with school, and hopefully employable in IT, lol.
