reasons
if everything that happens, happens for a reason, why isn't everything that happens reasonable?
a lot about life is overwhelming right now. mostly with my little jana being sick. also though, my bills come to more than my salary and i've been working so many hours that i don't even have time to write the checks to pay the bills. i'm already excited to retire. we moved into our new and fancy building so now i feel like i'm working in the heart of corporate america. and the CEO has now deemed me important enough to refer to me as "chelsea" and not "her". so that's always nice. it's interesting having all 200 employees in one space with everyone going in and out traveling around the world. including our new cleaning lady from Somalia named Nemo. so you can imagine how many time per day that i hear some variation of "chelsea have you found Nemo?"
besides work and trying to visit janay when i can, i've decided i really want to run a marathon with Team in Training since they raise money for Lymphoma. I've applied to run in the next Boston Marathon and I even have fancy new sneakers. 26.2 miles WOO!!
Our strange neighbor moved to France and our landlords moved to Amherst. The girls who moved in downstairs are usually MIA so we have the place to ourselves besides the ever growing pile of tax evasion notices and bills in our crazy neighbor's mailbox. i'm curious to know why she really "moved to France".
Henry is still a great cat. We took him up to Pemmaquid for a weekend and he was right at home. Luke and I have decided that he was given LSD as a kitten since he often runs himself headfirst into the wall and does backflips.
overall in life, work is going well, money is not. Henry is lovely, cancer sucks and i'm striving to run a marathon and oh yeah maybe start thinking about that master's degree.
Maybe we just don't understand the reason's behind some things since we're so intent on proving there's no reason for them to happen. i heard a story about a kid who got in such a serious car accident that the doctor's did an MRI and found a blood clot in his brain that would have otherwise gone undetected. that's an extreme example, but it seems possible to me that bad things have to happen to you sometimes in order for more important things to be able to happen to you. if i hadn't botched going to grad school and spent the last few months of senior year crying about how i had no future, i would have never found the job at CIEE and i wouldn't be close enough to be with my family during this crappy time. i think way too much about these things, but i'm determined for something good to come out of all of this.
