The Wait is Over

Sep 13, 2005 13:02

I'm posting again.

Heh, like you were waitin'.

Anyway, I realised yesterday that since May, an awful lot has been happening in my life here because we were describing it all to a Public Health Nurse (who visits biweekly just to check up on everything and I met for the first time yesterday). Trying to describe everything to someone who had a very vague notion of the circumstances here is . . . involved, from the situation with my mother-in-law, her car payments, her moving in with her mother, and my missing father-in-law to the situation with the still not entirely resolved situation with our home still containing a lot of the Shanty stuff (which are great to use, but someday will certainly not be here, I expect). The baby, the hospital bills, the doctor bills, the credit card, my work place, the inconsistent sleep . . .

It adds up, fast.

Anyway, I'm just posting to waste time until World of WarCraft updates itself. I played too much DDR yesterday. Amanda is now starting to play the higher difficulties and on the pad as well. Also, in DDR Extreme, there is only one song we haven't gotten A or higher on every difficulty - and that's the hardest one and only on the hardest difficulty (which I can successfully finish, but hardly even close to elegantly, if you know what I mean).

I didn't go to work yesterday. That was the first day Amanda was home with the baby with no one else here. That, and I didn't sleep, I missed my bus, and really didn't feel too good after the oft interrupted night previously . . .

I am getting much more accomplished with the baby though. However, this morning between seven and eight I thought I was having a recurring nightmare where the baby would wake me up, I'd forget to look at the bottle's formula level before feeding him, and always he'd finish with three ounces. The baby was getting more and more insistent and I was too tired to think. Turns out Amanda noticed that the bottle's nipple was clogged and for the past hour I had been woken up every ten minutes by the baby crying more and more hoarsely for food because he was getting none at all. *winces*

Either way, today and tomorrow I am off. And below is a test stolen from phicksur.

Your Existing Situation
Trying to improve his position and prestige. Dissatisfied with his existing circumstances and considers some improvement essential to his self-esteem.

Your Stress Sources
Delights in the tasteful, the gracious, and the sensitive, but maintains his attitude of critical appraisal and refuses to be swept off his feet unless genuineness and integrity can be absolutely vouched for. Therefore keeps a strict and watchful control on his emotional relationships as he must know exactly where he stands. Demands complete sincerity as a protection against his own tendency to be too trusting.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Willing to participate and to allow himself to become involved, but tries to fend off conflict and disturbance in order to reduce tension.

Emotionally inhibited. Feels forced to compromise, making it difficult for him to form a stable emotional attachment.

Your Desired Objective
Has a powerful drive towards sensuousness.

Your Actual Problem
Wishes to safeguard himself against criticism and to entrench himself in a stable and secure position; but is himself inclined to be critical of others and difficult to please.
