I'd put up with a lot of germs to get smoochies. And I hate being sick.
Not complaining about the smoochies. A cold or two is definitely worth it.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

That's such an adorable name.
I'd put up with a lot of germs
A friend just called here to ask me to bring her something. I whined about not sleeping, and she whined about her baby (6 months old) waking her up a lot during the night. I said I'd much prefer to stay up for her reason, not mine. Which is not the same as what erika just said, I know, but it reminded me of that.

Hee. Poor Nilly.
If it helps, your reason is short term, and your sleep will happen sometime, while mommy sleep loss is a long-term change that leaves you a milky zombie for YEARS!

I'm doing OK! I mean it's 3:30 and I just got home from work, which is proof that I made the right decision, if you ask me.

Well, you talk to the girl who is working/studying pretty much 30 hours straight by now, so I wouldn't count on me for any rational judgment...
But it's not the usual schedule for me, far from it, and there are really good people here, I really like my PhD adviser, and it's nothing like the stress you describe. So, yeah, it definitely seems like you've made the right desicion. I imagine it still took a lot of courage - to leave the known and safe. I'm still with the "go, you!"

This is awesome, and I'm so happy for you.

Yes, I'm a little scared about what comes next, after the wedding, the honeymoon, my second hip surgery and recovery from same. But I'm not thinking about any of the "what's next" stuff right now. I'm too busy planning the wedding and the honeymoon, thankfully. I imagine that when it's all over I'll feel a little lost and panicky.

This is awesome
It's so very important. I'm very lucky in that. [Edit: and thankful]

Maybe I'm stepping over bounds here, but wouldn't the new "home" security (I'm not even sure I'm calling this by the right name) be a sort of something to lean on, to know that "this is OK", a fountain of strength to go from to the new possibilities?
Either way, I think you're very wise, to concentrate at things one step at a time. I have to tackle things this way, otherwise I'm completely lost, and all the details together seem overwhelming.
How long between the wedding and the surgery? And I forget - where are you going for your honeymoon?

What is even happening?
Are you still here, Nilly? I had to catch up with the thread, and after each of your posts, I'd think you were surely gone, by now.
