We now have internet at home again, for the first time in over a year!!!!

So I'm finally able to write a post again...It's been a long time. I haven't had internet at home for over a year, and they've blacklisted El Jay at work, so I haven't been able to update or read in months I think.

Where to begin, where to begin...there's soooo much shit that's happened in my life lately I don't even know where to start. My eyes are still bad, but slowly slowly getting better. We know what I have, but we don't know why. They keep telling me to find out why I have what I do, but then they also tell me that they may not find out why. Gits. I hate doctors. But it does seem to be getting a little better. Basically I've lived with this for well over a year, and it will probably take more than 2 months of treatment to fix it. But frankly my eyes are now my least worry.

I could also entitle this post "He Shoots, He Scores" or "The First Sign of the Apocalypse is Here".

I am officially going to be a father...

Weronika is now 7 weeks pregnant. I'm still not sure how I'm taking everything. I'm alternating from being terrified, to happy, to withdrawing completely, back to being terrified, and I constantly want to drink and smoke. But I THINK I'm happy about it. This is going to postpone certain plans that we have, but I'm still hoping for the best. Especially since Weronika is going to be a very "high-risk" pregnancy. She has Poly-cystic (?) ovaries, and therefore the foetus is going to be at high risk until 10 weeks, and then the risk drops, but it will be a very high risk pregnancy the whole time. She has an appointment on Friday to find out if she's going to be on sick-leave for the entire term, or if she'll be able to go back to work for a while longer...so nothing's for sure just yet. She's really nervous, and frankly, so am I. I've never quite felt so random before!!!

Weronika also had to give up her new job with American Express and ask our job to come back, which came through. That's good. So at least now, if she's on sick-leave for the entire pregnancy, she's going to be paid 100% for the whole time, plus 3 months after it's born.

I've applied for a Branch Supervisor position at CWT in the American Embassy, and I'm waiting to hear a response. Part of me wants the job, and a bigger part of me doesn't, so I'm kind of hoping it's not going to be offered to me. I want the extra money that this will give, but I really don't want the responsibility. Oh well, I'm hoping to hear something from them by Friday.

But now I have to go and start picking up and organizing...
