Calli! That job rocks like a rocking thing!
Jars, wow and dang. I'm thirding or whatever the joy for getting to live with your best friend. And sex! We also got married a lot sooner than we'd planned due to joining the Foreign Service, but since we'd known for years that we'd get married eventually, not really the same thing and shutting up now.
Still, I hope the bureaucraxy isn't horrible.
I'm reading essays about what it's like to be a Foreign Service spouse and wondering what my life is, coz it isn't what these women (and one man) describe.
CALLI!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's the way to do! I'm so happy for you. I know you were ready to take it for the same money. I didn't know about the great bennies. But more money (even slightly more is more and it sure isn't less). Woo hoo!!! Plus, that job is so up your alley. I'm so happy for you. I think I said that before. But I am. So there.
Jars, I wish you and your boy the very best, and some peace of mind with whatever decision you reach, and action you take. If it was going to happen eventually, let go the worries and drink in the happy.
Blargh. Okay, just got off the phone with a doctor, talking about how things have been progressing (or not) since we were discharged. He's told us to come in to the hospital nowish, for what will hopefully just be an outpatient procedure. Possibly a bit of a short stay, but we're both hoping like hell to avoid that.
Thank you, everyone! Boy, am I ever not concentrating on work today. Nope, not happening. On the upside, putting "John Barrowman" into the youtube search box brings up a whole lot of pretty.
Sean, I hope everything goes alright for S. at the hospital.
Oh, Sean, I'm so sorry. Keep us informed, ok? Much love.
Oh man, Sean. Fingers crossed for outpatient, no hospital stay, and successful results.
Quick, easy, outpatient, and effective treatment for S, Sean, and some strength for you.
Selfish whine alert.
I stayed home from work today to get caught up on homework. The kids are at school, DH is at work, the dog is at the beauty parlor. It is just me and mom at home. I'm in the living room in the front of the house with my books and laptop. She is in the family in the back of the house. Watching TV. Loudly. Something that sounds Jerry Springer-ish.
