So, I realize it has been ages since I wrote a decent entry and I'm sorry I suck.
Now that that's out of the way, let's begin:
- Bathroom remodeling insanity is all but over. Our contractor is coming over to install the kickplate/register cover thingy and we're still waiting on the shelves we ordered for the bathtub to come in so the tile guys can install them and then seal all the tile. I will post a picture as soon as I upload them to the computer. At least we don't make the final payment to the contractor until everything is finished and we are happy with the final product. I say we should drag this out as long as possible! Just kidding. I am just tired of people being in my house and making a big mess everywhere.
- Work sucks ass. Seriously. But some things are getting better while this whole fundraising event that is planned for next week is dragging me into the 9th level of hell. Why don't people bother to send back RSVPs anymore? Is it that fucking hard? You say "Yes, I'm coming" and write a check or your credit card number on the card or you say "No, I am unable to attend." And, you know what? You don't even have to write anything! You check a little box! And then you slide the card into the envelope and you stick a stamp on it and mail it! Why is this so hard?!?! I swear I'm getting more gray hair by the day. I have 100 RSVPs and the event is 10 days away! I need to see 175 to 200 RSVPs for this event. I hate everyone. Blarg. I HATE, HATE, HATE events planning! HATE IT! I want to kill myself it's that horrible.
- Okay, the good news is that I'm making some real headway on the whole grad school thing and I'm leaning toward nursing school. I haven't made any decisions yet but I plan to do some more research after I'm done with this godforsaken event! Stay tuned for updates.
- Let's see...well, Asia is doing really well. She's been living with us for 2 months now and has lost about 6-7 lbs and a TON of fur. All I can say is thank goodness we bought a Dys0n. Asia's definitely a different dog now than when we brought her home. She has shown more interest in play, enjoys getting us up before the alarm goes off at 6 am and tries to eat birds. Okay, she only tried to eat a bird once and that was today. And she almost got to eat it but somehow Michael got her to drop it. Anyway, she's very sweet and has learned to sit, stay and come. She isn't always consistent about it but I know she knows what those commands mean. Even though not a day goes by that I don't miss Shana, Asia has been a wonderful addition to our family and I can't imagine life without her.
- What else? Michael and I have been married for 6 months and we couldn't be happier. With each other, that is. I wouldn't mind winning the lottery and quitting my job but that's a topic for another time.
So, that's pretty much it. It's not very exciting but that's all I've got for the moment. I promise to post "after" pictures of the bathroom and in a couple of weeks I'll have pictures from our honeymoon (finally, a real honeymoon!) in C@lifornia. Stay tuned!
