lots of things happening. over lunch today (or breakfast, rather, since it was at 1015) i called mom since i hadn't talked to her in a while, and she told me that adam wants to come home from southwestern for a semester, which i'm not all that surprised to hear. before christmas he'd told mom that he was feeling depressed, and he'd had a really ( Read more... )

work is, it is a lot of things. mostly it's tiring. mostly i think that's because i'm not used to being gone all day yet. this is my first full-time job, and i hear that takes some getting used to. it's challenging, but i'm picking it up quickly they say, and i'm leaps and bounds further along than the woman who started two days after me. it ( Read more... )

it's 8:22 am, and i don't have to be at work until 9:15, but i'm all dressed and ready to walk out the door because i woke up before my alarm went off and figured i might as well shower. i have tippy on my lap, trying to get in some quality time before i have to leave, and it's really funny because she keeps sliding around on my dress pants. i'm ( Read more... )

what a day. last night was interesting, i couldn't sleep much from the combination of john being gone and today being my first day of work. the bed was too big to look at, so i put a towel over the comforter and let tippy sleep up there. she did really well, way better than i expected. she stayed on the towel, didn't try to climb on me, and i ( Read more... )

i just dropped john off at the airport, and he will be gone from now until late thursday night, which means four and a half nights away, which means i am lonely. maybe i'm feeling it more because we're just coming off of the holidays, when we got to spend about two weeks together nonstop, no work or anything. and even when he is at work, normally ( Read more... )

2007 has been some year for me, so I'll do an end of the year survey ( Read more... )

this has been a year of changes, really good changes, those kinds of things where you relatives tell you, "starting a new chapter!" getting married, obviously, was one of those. i suppose i did things a little out of order, because normally you send out graduation announcements before wedding invitations, but you know. i'm graduating (or being ( Read more... )

today is tuesday, which means we move in three days. john's taking thursday off of work so we can pack and get our keys from the complex, then on friday we have movers coming (thanks to john's dad) to haul all our stuff to our new place! we've sold off just about all of our furniture, so right now i'm sitting on a pillow on the floor, next to the ( Read more... )

well. this complex we're living in right now is supposed to be demolished in september. the last day of residency is aug 31, and we're moving out on the 24th. lots of people have already moved out. apparently the demo process started this morning at 7, right across the pool, with lots of hammers and shouting. i didn't get out of bed until 915 ( Read more... )

it was a good weekend. whenever we drive home it feels like less of a weekend, but it was still fun. friday we stayed in austin and had dinner with mom and bishop. before dinner, while john was still at work, mom and bishop and i drove around burnet browsing around antique stores. they drove home that night instead of going to the norml benefit ( Read more... )
