After several days of a goggy, sleepy barely awake mode, I have weened myself, ok, cold turkeyed the generic claritin D and I will be picking up plain claritin on my way to the Quad Cities.
Today is momentus! I know when you all read this you are going to think what is the big deal, but this is HUGE in my mind. My mentor invited me to his house for dinner with him and his family. This crosses a line, this says friendship. I know it probably sounds silly, but I respect this man so much. And oddly enough one of things I respect most about him has to do with his wife, who until tonight I have never met before. But I have never heard him say one remotely negative thing about his wife, including no negative tones, no groans, no rolls of the eyes, nothing remotely publically disrespectful. This is something so rare at my company that has always impressed me. I have learned through him how I want to be as a wife someday when it comes to how I speak about my husband when he is not around. Even if I am angry with him because of some pet peeve poked that morning.
I have midterms on Saturday. I'm scared about the investments midtem. The guys are so cool about it so laid back but this is their industry. I build stuff. Technically buy stuff to be built, but blah blah blah.
I took today off work to study and will be leaving shortly. I'll be home tomorrow night, and things will have to start getting ready for the trip to Europe. Europe and midterms in one week. I need my head examined.
Oh, I'm planning a vacation...a real vacation. I'm thinking about Alaska. The land of no cell phones at least that is my home. Leeners, want to go?

That sounds like a lovely trip, but I'm afraid that Alaska is not in the financial cards at this time. I do, however, now have serious reason to worry about your safety amongst the wildlife, both animal and human, of the great state of Alaska. :) Missed your message / call while sleeping after a very busy day at the Ren faire with my family. If I miss you, GOOD LUCK ON YOUR EXAM and have a fabulous, fun trip to Europe where you can leave your test worries behind. What countries are we heading to this time?
