My oldest brother and his wife are going to reproduce. They are approximately the best potential parents in existence.
Meanwhile, now that we're both working, I'm having some problems getting used to having enough money (hi, #s 4 and 2! And possibly 5, though separating cause/effect with my incredible pickiness is difficult). Having more than a hundred bucks in our account at any given moment is more alarming than gratifying because I keep expecting the other shoe to drop and can't convince my survival instincts that it did already in the form of our lives thus far.
I'm also highly skeptical of the 800+ bucks left over from my scholarship having paid this last semester's tuition. The school is sending me a prepaid card - which they're mistakenly sending it to Mom and Dad's; at least knowing they fucked up is a sign the universe is working correctly - and while it's a Discover, all of our bills payable with not-our-bank-accounts (like the power and fuck Time Warner Cable) accept Discover just fine. This is too easy--it's the part of the movie where the killer springs out from behind the door. D:
! I know what it is! The money is magnificently awesome, don't get me wrong, but we don't absolutely have to have it to survive. That's why things are going so smoothly. Assholes. But, seriously, don't get me wrong: I am totally okay with getting money under the vast majority of circumstances. This will go a long way toward groceries, dentist bills, and/or Christmas presents because screw you, Facebook skeptics, it's always time to do Xmas shopping.
School starts Monday. Things continue apace. Can't wait for the wedding next month. :3
