ND & Kristin, I had no idea your situation had gotten so intense and Just.Damn.Hard. I'm sorry if I accidentally sent up your hackles when you've already got more than enough to deal with. You have nothing but best wishes from me.
No worries. Like I said, I meant my post to be explanatory about why we weren't around, not rude. Obviously stress and frustration makes a poor filter. I haven't talked much about the situation with ND's mom because I didn't feel it was my place, and ND, I think, has been way too drained to even consider writing about it.
I do hope very much that we will have a chance to spend some San Diego time doing things other than healthcare at some point. Let's take a taquitos raincheck.
Vote for taquitos!
Yes
Hells Yes

ION, I'm a complete dumbass sometimes. I have cough varient asthma and as such, can sometimes have coughing fits for no apparent reason. Last night, I was hacking up a lung and was hacking up pink stuff. I freaked thinking I was coughing up blood. Then I remembered I had just eaten a red velvet cupcake.

ChiKat, how goes the job search? I know you were having a tough time deciding which one would be best.
Mmm taquitos. I wish I had that instead of the Lean Cuisine Swedish Meatballs I'm currently eating...
ChiKat, how goes the job search?
For those playing at home, the job hunt has successfully concluded!
I had an interview with job #4 this morning and got wiggly ickies about it. While the job itself would be terrific, working conditions are severely less than ideal.
I made a spreadsheet of pros and cons of each, talked it out with some friends and I ended up taking my 1st choice and will start on Aug. 20th! I'll be teaching drama in a middle school. 2 classes each of 6th grade, 7th grade and 8th grade.
Robin, I believe you taught that before, yes? If so, I'd love some ideas and words of wisdom.
I'm very excited and think it'll be a great fit for me.
Woo for decision-making!
ChiKat, wish I could have seen you again when I was in Chicago! Too bad you were busy.
I missed you, too! I was in class. Boo. I'd have much rather hung out with you and eaten pizza.
Yay ChiKat! Does that feel like a big load off your shoulders, or what?
Does that feel like a big load off your shoulders, or what?
Seriously, it really does.
I now have a small load of needing some kind of work for the summer. I have feelers out, but it's hard when I know I can only work through mid-August and I can't work on Tues or Thurs. I have some money, just not much and I'm not sure I can make it till my 1st paycheck at the end of August.
