Wednesday Already

By
I want a laptop again. Co-ordinating non-crying times to get onto a stationary computer is too much work most days.

I really don't have anything to write about. Other than I'm tired and want to go back to bed. I remember the days when I could do that ... sigh. Maybe in a couple of years I'll be able to do that. In fact the Orclette may beg me too-everything is funner when mom is asleep :D At least it was when I was growing up.

New season of NCIS has started. Father-in-law also likes the show so he tapes 'em which means I'll actually see them before the next season starts. And I'm the one with cable and he only has rabbit ears (or something like that).

5 weeks after the birth of Miniorc and my run/walking rotation is at 3minutes running/2minutes walking. I'm not running fast-I look like a plodder I'm sure.

49 days til Damm gets home. Sometimes I wish I could slash at the calendar and the days would just fall away.

And the Orclette reports that she's "crying." But she burst into laughter after telling me that. Toddlers do say the darndest things.

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

There be too much history.

By
For the past couple of weeks Damm and I have been faithfully spending an hour each day working on our respective summer projects-he on his writing and me on Spanish and history. I had previously mentioned wanting to create some sort of series that I’d work on throughout the summer. I did a bit of brainstorming and decided that I should write essays on bits of fun and fascinating history. Then I started thinking up topic ideas and realized that I didn’t have enough time to randomly pick subjects, research them, and then write entertainingly. So I decided to pick one area of focus. It came down to either Modern Russia or the Civil War Era, since these are the two history courses I’ll be taking in the fall. I chose the Civil War. And even then I have not narrowed my focus enough. The essays one could write on the American Civil War … the possibilities are endless. And so I’m in the process of redefining what I will write/research. I’m in the midst of gathering info for a...
