Even my Cranky Pants are Grumpy....
I'm determined, however, not to fall off the blog wagon for so long again so you will just have to come along for the ride!
Even though we had a very nice weekend - which included an actual dinner and movie date on Friday night, as well as a SF adventure on Saturday and yummy Korean foods on Sunday - I think there is real danger of my head exploding in the near future.
Hint: Here's where you stop reading if you don't want to listen to some serious crankypantitis
For starters there is the fact that we have to move some time between now and July 1 because Miss B's big new job (which is amazing and wonderful and I'm so PROUD of her) means no more student housing. We have outgrown our treehouse apartment and can't wait to get into a bigger, nicer, non-motel-like place but the process of apartment hunting and moving is never easy. Especially if you just moved across the country, like, yesterday!
Then there is the fact that there is all kinds of wacked out business going on at my job right now. Its one of those times when there is big change coming but only certain people are supposed to know, so there is this really weird vibe because everyone is trying to figure out what's going on and whether or not it affects them, which leads to a general sense of paranoia and ill will. I happen to know what's on the horizon, but i'm not supposed to know which makes it weird to be in the middle of all the speculation. There's a chance, by the way, that this change will be very posititve for me but thats all pie in the sky until things actually change so I don't know what the hell to think, or say, or do.
And...my poor poor girl is so tired and burned out and just wants to be done with school even though she totally totally loves it, and I wish I could make it all better but I know that basically we just need to get through the next 6-7 weeks without losing our minds. I guess the one good thing is that her last rotation is at the psych hospital so if we need to check ourselves in it will be very convenient (and would solve our housing problem. hmmmmm....)
You all will come visit us in our padded cell right? Or at least send cards and letters....

Just add a little garlic and basil and you'll have a nice bruschetta
So I'm talking to my mom this morning:
Mom: Slater got skunked (Slater is her guide dog, sweet as pie and dumb as a post, but that's a story for another time)
Me: oh no!
Mom: We have him on his tie-down out on the porch so he doesn't stink up the house.
Me: Did you give him a bath in tomato juice?
Mom: No we didn't have any... but we did give him a bath in diced tomatoes.
crazy people. that's what they are.
oh, and by the way, I know I haven't written in almost a month but lets just let that slide for now, k?
