OMG, I’ve been AWOL for so long!!! WTH?
I have so much on my mind…
And here it goes:
Acronyms and stress go together for me, and OMFG I can’t believe how time is running away like a baby daddy late on child support. I am astounded by the fact that in 14 days, the movers will be here, loading up everything we own into a semi. And 16 days from now they will unload it all into our new house.
Another thing that’s got my mind reeling is that I used to think that I looked like Rachel Ray. Especially in the candids looking rather goofy:
That’s my style. And, as you may recall, I do NOT look like Dakota Fanning-I still can’t get over that one. (And I guess the photo expired. Great!)
But now, and this is what has me losing sleep at night (in addition to an impending move, a baby, and 2 jobs) I kinda look like the pudgy Valerie Bertinelli I just saw on a Jenny Craig commercial!!!
Jeebus. When will it end?????
But I’ve had some recent successes-ONE huge one-I got the “bucket o’ papers” organized. This was a rather large plastic storage tote FULL to the brim with random papers, receipts, owner’s manuals, bills and birth certificates. And now the entire contents of said tote have been three-hole punched (or placed into those clear covers) and put into the appropriate binder under the appropriate tab. I am the BOMB.
I also taught my first Creating Academic & Professional Success class last night (both sections-online) and had a BLAST. (lots of explosive metaphors here…hmm….). But anyway, how much fun did I have?? The two hours seemed more like 20 minutes.
Time does fly when you’re having fun.
Apparently moving is pure JOY!
Because, again, 14 days. FOURTEEN DAYS. I have to have everything PACKED and ready to GO in 14 days.
And as much as I would like to spend half the day, typing away, justifying my dissertation-writing existence, I have to GET TO WORK.
