So today was a pretty darn nice Saturday, if quiet. Quiet is good!
Went and bought a present for the Bridal Shower I'm going to tomorrow--in Winthrop, which might be two hours away. I've never been there before, I have no idea how far it is. Ugh.
It occurs to me, that after Steph has her wedding in June, I will have attended a wedding every year since 2004.
Seriously. Let's run down my wedding history (and known future):
-August 2002, Maid of Honor.
-October 2004, guest (former roommate).
-August 2005, bridesmaid (best wedding EVER).
-October 2006, guest (blown out tire--Millinockett wedding).
-June 2007, bridesmaid-to-be (last roommate).
-Summer 2008, guest (so far as I know).
( A little venting about 6 weddings in as many years. )
On another note, I will be RIDICULOUSLY busy for the next few months. ZOMG.
The weekends of May:
This weekend--Steph's bridal shower.
Next weekend--Mother's Day.
Weekend after--![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zoe_chan's birthday!! (Not that I have plans, but this is how I mark time in May.)
Weekend after--Mom's birthday, and Memorial Day.
Memorial Day week--I start long-term subbing for fifth grade, YAY! (Which means fulltime teaching again.)
June!
One of those first two weekends, I have to come see you,aradiachiba, and take you up on the offer to alter my dress. =D Plus, the three of us need a weekend, since our Writing Weekend fell through. Also, zoe_chan has Batman/Superman episodes I need to see, yes?
June 16th--Steph's wedding
June 23rd--LEAVE FOR NORWAY!!!!!!!!!! ZOMG IT IS ALMOST HERE! *flail*
( A small amount of flailing over the impending trip... )
In the midst of this craziness, it looks like we will be house hunting because everyone agrees Mom's arthritis has gotten to the point where she needs a one-story home. And instead of going for something two-story with a first-floor bedroom, we acknowledge the fact that my brother and I will move out one day and go for a ranch--or a condo. She's hoping for a condo, and my aunt is ON US to start looking NOW.
Pardon me while I freak out at THAT idea. Throw moving into this mix?
Oh, and one can NEVER forget the EVER LOOMING job search of necessary doooooom. >_<
Expect some frantic lj posts.
That, and I want to finish my fic of implausible science and soul-searching before I leave for Norway, but likely won't have MUCH time once teaching starts so... I should be writing that now instead of this post.
Huh.
Edit: Oh! Also!!! Today was Free Comic Book Day and I ♥ it. Immensely. I got JLA 0, and bought the new Buffy while I was at it. I am very much enjoying Buffy season 8, I must confess.
I don't think it's possible to have a bad day when comics--especially FREE comics--are involved.
Now I need to go write something orxenokattz will yell at me and beat me with rum when she returns. Although, rum? Never BAD.
