Things have been stressful lately. I have noticed my inability to cope with stress is reaching catastrophic levels; however, in recognizing this tidbit i have been working on my patience levels and trying to get things done early. am i being successful? partially. something is better than nothing.
yesterday i booked my ticket to Phoenix. Steve's gig is December 14th. I cannot wait to see what he and Hammil come up with for the show. It still shocks me that he is actually getting paid to do standup comedy. it just goes to show that dreams can come true and can happen in ways you never expected. i am very excited for him. also, i am excited for myself as i have never been to phoenix. we are going only for the day, but it is a day in a different town and a night spent with a different view of the stars. i am a little bumemd that i won't be able to hit up any of the geologically amazing portions of Arizona, but in reality one day isn't going to cut it for me anyways.
I finally told my bosses that i am going to Panama. I am so excited to go. My spanish abilities may even prove a little useful as we are going to rent a car and drive ourselves to Gamboa and El Valle and the Decameron. Three nights in the rainforest with a night river cruise and a canopy walk. i am so excited! i really didn't think it was going to happen, but as the months tick by and the reality sets in, i am so excited about this i could combust. i think the reality of the entire thing set in when i went and applied for my passport.
aidan is doing great. i am working on his letters and numbers with him. I frighten myself sometimes when i ralize he is turning 4 in April. It is frightening how swiftly time flies when you are always hitting the ground running. i love that little boy more than i thought i could care about anything in the world. maybe it is because he is just as ridiculously stubborn as i am. anyways.
