| | Wow. I wasn't even sure if I would remember my password, it's been THAT long since I've updated. And again, I'll say it before Heather can beat me to it--I am a sloth. I have more classes this quarter, so I'm keeping rather busy. I have two hours on Monday and twelve hours on Wednesday (thus the time to update--a three hour break), but I would prefer it this way. I would much rather be done working in just two days. Do you realize that means five days off? I have a typical workweek off. It's outrageous. Matt works his same three days, I work two, so combined we put in a work week. But, I will admit, it's a bit dull, those days off. My sewing machine is broken, I have no plot to garden, and the like. I end up making brother Nate roll his eyes because I go to the library, check out ten novels at a time, and read one in its entirety on each of my days off so that my ten books (a lifetime of reading for Nate, apparently) does not even last me the three weeks that I have them checked out for. Pathetic, I am, and I know it. Ah well. Who do I have to impress?  Speaking of impressing, I think I may have found an eligible bachelor for one of my single friends. We'll see how this goes. Of course, this could likely take a little time. I just met the man last week, and I don't think I should be breaking out the "Hey! I've got an awesome friend who likes a lot of the same stuff you do! Would you like to double date with us?" I fear that just meeting me might need some time for adjustment; I can't immagine subjecting him to me, my husband, and my best friend all at once. Especially since when we three get together, we tend to get crazy. I don't want to scare him off so soon because he really does seem to be a thoroughly entertaining, caring, interesting human being. If anyone has an suggestions on the conversation leading up to setting up a complete stranger with a blind date, I would be most appreciative.  I want to write a book. I've been thinking already of my new Nano book, which won't be written until November, but hey, who knows. If I plan the entire thing in my head, then perhaps come November, I will actually reach 50,000 words. I came up short last year. Does anyone have any ideas on something babble-worthy? Something that would make a good plot? Or even something that alone isn't a good plot, but could be added as a detail into a good plot? This face looks like it has curly steam spewing from its hair folicles. I know their supposed to be question marks... Has anyone ever had their gallbladder removed? Does the gallbladder cause intolerance for certain foods (namely, every food I eat)? If not, what could? I have been experiencing quite a lengthy illness that I am sure has nothing to do with a flu bug. Matt and I went to Zanesville yesterday to get estimates on our intended construction. Yes indeed, kiddies, the possiblity of a house this year is becoming more and more of a reality. We have someone lined up to the the escavating, some prospects of concrete, blueprints in our posession, and now some outrageously expensive estimates to put us farther into debt. Well, it is the American way. Well, perhaps I should pretend to do some work now. Perhaps that is the American way. |
