I want to get married now just so I can send out those save-the-date cards.

I love the blue dress, Steph.

So, today my spring allergies woke up and said, "Welcome to mucous world" so I nabbed the first allergy meds I could find. My nose is clear but what's really surprising is how loud everything is. I guess I've been mildly congested for weeks now. Yay Allegra!

Wow, my wall clock's loud.

Huh, starting to think the mild, irritating headache i've had for days isn't just a headache...feeling like my head is full of cotton, groggy, dizzy, sore throat...these wouldn't normally be side effects of stepping down celexa right? Cuz i'd assume one of the many icks being passed around work, but I did also start tapering down from 10mg celexa just 4 days ago. Urgh.

Oh, Tep, loving all of this.

erin, it could be.

I have had A Day in quite a string of Days. I got going at 8:30 am and pretty much didn't stop until now. There was parent wrangling and errands and cleaning old place (not done yet!) and still no Internet at new place and dinner plans in constant flux (D did actually get to meet my parents, but is was unsure for a bit) and rental car shenanigans at the airport with D that were only resolved in our favor, I am quite sure, because we are white and I was dressed up from dinner. And possibly because I bonded with the manager over her awesome Born shoes (gray high heeled oxfords).

D, for his part, has been going to work, ferrying his mom to and from the hospital, taking care of his brother's pets, and staying at his brother's with his mom every night since Tuesday. In addition to working and playing rugby, which last bit means a road trip to Memphis last weekend, practice this Tues and Thurs, and leaving at 4:30 am to drive to Arkansas tomorrow.

What I wouldn't give for a three day weekend for the two of us somewhere quiet.

WTF, sorry to get all mememe. Once I started typing it out, I couldn't stop. Just gotta make it through St. Patty's Day...

I will say, dinner last night with Nora and Tom and lisah was the BOMB and a much needed respite from my folks, bless 'em.

Did you call me yesterday? I was in a work meeting till 7:30 (!!!!)

I hope things are a bit more chill today.

So, with this new focus on beer stuff here, I've expanded my circle of friendly acquaintances. This has led to being so terribly overly sensitive that I am constantly feeling snubbed. I forgot about this downside to "putting yourself out there. " It sucks.

Nora, was just looking for a restaurant consult, but figured it out. Went to Magasin, it was awesome of course.

That is a late work meeting! You must have been so tired.

Here we go again... I did realize that just a few years ago, I probably couldn't have handled a day of this stress, much less over a week. So much more resilient than I used to be, and for that I give thanks.

So much more resilient than I used to be, and for that I give thanks.

Can I ask how you accomplished that? Seriously. My therapist and I were talking last time about my complete lack of resiliency.

We're home from the funeral. It was a beautiful service. My nephews are growing up so much! I'm going to have them all to myself on Monday; I can't wait!
