sarahfaeIs anyone else having a problem with their wireless AT&T HSI connection running super fucking slow tonight??
Go figure, it's on the night when I can't fall asleep, and have to wake up early tomorrow morning.
J came over after getting off of work tonight, and I surprised her with a foot soak and some munchies (left over guac, hummus, salsa, and a mix of chips). We drank wine and vegetated in front of the teli. I love the girl time that I've been frequently having, and I'm trying to encourage D to go out and have a boys night soon - he gets so busy with chores sometimes that it worries me...not that I'm a lazy bum, but I see how he'll get caught up in a project, and at the end of that project he'll move right on to another one. He doesn't give himself time to relax until he's completely burnt out, and that can often result in an over exhausted grumpy husband.
On a similar yet more active note:
We had a nice time with Deric, Kurtis and J last night - an unexpected casual dinner developed on our living room floor - and carried on until 10pm. We haven't had much desire to "go out" over the last few months, so it's been nice to finally have more space. I can't wait for the actual housewarming party - it seems a bit overdue.
- David, if you think you're going to end up in Humboldt pleasepleaseplease let me know so that I can possibly have a little soiree of sorts planned. It could end up being a roudy event, so let me know if that's unappealing to you. I'm just really hoping to see you!
Work has been incredible.
I think I'm finally out of the gray that I let myself sink into - and it feels good. It's not always easy for me to admit my weaknesses, but these last few months have been heavily laden with icky depression of sorts, seeing now that anything I create I can overcome - and I have definitely created the stumbling block that made me doubt myself.
And the award goes to...
D, who chimed in early on, saying: "You really value the things that you have to work hard for. If everything is just handed to you how can you really know what you're capable of? I know you can do anything you set your mind to, I've seen it happen."
Also, I'd like to give a shout out to myself - for hearing the loving words of my husband, while I sat on my bum and told him that I wanted to be taken care of and I didn't want to have to work anymore.
Listen to the ones who love you and speak to you in that love.
I'm gonna finish this Pinot, and head to dream land.
I get to hang out in Redway, Garberville and Covelo tomorrow...weee!

Date: 2007-11-09 04:03 pm (UTC)I have no idea what day of the week that is, but once I arrive I am in no hurry to return to Portland. You could just plan a general non-family Thanksgiving-type thing and include me.
I'll call you the day I'm headed up. If you have a room for me, let me know, otherwise I should book a hotel soon.
