So I finished the sixth Harry Potter today.

And then I spent a half hour crying on my bed.

Longest. Day. Ever ( Read more... )

Where to begin? A lot has happened since I last posted. We moved into the house; it's all decorated and unpacked (mostly). It's been wonderful to have our own place. It may be an older house, but it's roomy for just the two of us and I really like how it looks now that we're all settled in. I think my favorite part is the kitchen. It's been great ( Read more... )

So, I don't have internet access at the new house for another couple weeks. I've also been incredibly busy so that is why I've been neglecting my LJ. Not that I have a million people out there waiting for my next update, but I still felt like I should mention it.

I do have a lot to say, but it will have to wait.

So we had a nice, relaxing weekend. Friday night I got a call at work (they had to get me on the walky talky thing and make me go into a classroom) from my mother-in-law. She has never called me at work and it was such an ordeal to get me on the phone, I assumed soemthing had happened to Chris. Turns out she wanted to know if I was still coming to ( Read more... )

So, I just returned from San Diego this very moment. I was doing some thinking on the ride home about my attitude this weekend. I spent most of it bitching about not having friends, not being smart, and not being talented. I apologize to Valeri for having put up with it. I would have smacked me. I don't know what brought this self loathing on, but ( Read more... )
