I have no funny word stories. Just trying to work and my foot is not happy with me. I've been in sneakers for almost 2 weeks and yes, there are times I've gone barefoot since I HATE wearing shoes in the house. Normally it is just awkward walking because the muscles in that foot have forgotten how to work or it can get hurt when I walk a bunch. But today, it has been yelling at me from the time I woke up. This has got to stop. I'm at the edge of tears over this.
Well, I've been on the edge of tears since talking with my dad yesterday. He called to tell me his wife's sister has passed away from brain cancer. I knew she was sick and that this was an eventuality, but it is always sudden.
Then he said he hadn't bought tickets to come out for my graduation yet. He wasn't sure if he would be able to make the trip. First he didn't come out for Kelly's wedding and now this? I don't know what is going on. And it hurts.
Dang, I'm just a jangle of nerves. I wanna run away from all of this. Not that I can even walk across a room right now.
Is that like a convention for people who really like Ethan Frome?
I'm sorry, Suzi.
Is your dad worried about travel for any reason? Or about money? Those would be my guesses.
David I often have that feeling with the word "from". From from from from--it sounds like a nonsense word, especially if you start pronouncing it to rhyme with romcom or something?
I have this one too, except I decided after a while it sounded like an insult, which led to me and a friend calling each other, "You fromzy thing!" for most of that semester.
I'm sorry, Suzi. That's a bunch of not-goodness at once. {{{Suzi}}}

He travels internationally, so the process of travel isn't an issue for him. As far as I know money isn't an issue either. For Kelly's wedding they sent the new couple cash - basically what they would have spent on travel. But really, who knows.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm just so exhausted. I'm over my foot hurting. I'm over school - though I have a bunch of assignments that I need to power through. I love the puppies, but I'm over the manic energy.
Em has a car now. It's a 2007 Honda Fit with 211,000 miles so it is the same age as my car but has fewer miles. I need to replace the brake pads and I'm going to update the head unit for her so she'll have bluetooth, USB, in-dash Nav, and a reverse camera. She wants to help me with all of that since she likes working on cars with me, which is awesome.
Aw, parent-child working on cars is sweet!

Wait, what? The toddler has a car now?
