This is what Jaq does... If he is wandering around like he is bored, we know to just check his water bowl. He drops all of his toys in here- the plastic jacks (as illustrated above), his feathers, balls, and even a couple of times, his stuffed cat!

PS- Don't think I am a terrible kitty mommy by the looks of that water. The water had just been changed the day before. Jaq purposely drops pieces of his hard food into the water bowl too- apparently filtered water isn't good enough.. he wants flavored water.

PPS- Yes, I am procrastinating studying for my test.

Future LEED AP..

..right here. With 2 months of a LOT of studying. :(

Sunday May 17 at 3:30 PM I will take the test. My appointment is for 2.5 hours. Yikes. I hope it doesn't actually take that long.

When I pass (which I darn well better the first time- $300/test!), I will be a LEED AP- able to write LEED reports, etc. I will have my first set of letters after my name!

LEED is a rating system to determine how sustainable/environmentally friendly a building is. Since I am an interior designer, I will be taking the test that relates to Commercial Interiors. A building/space has to qualify for a certain number of credits, which are gained through environmentally friendly practices/sustainable materials, etc, in order to become a LEED certified building.

I've already written a report, so hopefully this helps me with studying! I am a terrible test-studier- pray that I can focus for this!
