sorry i couldn't make it out to orlopp's tonight! i definitely wanted to see everyone but, at the same time, definitely didn't quite feel up to it. this bout of strep has good days and bad days. luckily christmas is right around the corner. hopefully, things will be going better for me by then. im sure they will since i no longer have a car to get squished and i doubt strep will strike me twice. plus, eric and i will have our puppy by then!!! im hoping to name him charlie (charles for when he is in trouble), but eric wants to name him pepper (or sgt. pepper as his full name). pepper sounds too girly to me. i think this little guy is definitely a charlie. hes a brown and white springer spaniel and right now hes about 7 and a half weeks old. so we will get him very young, which will be good. on the other hand, i feel totally unprepared and am positive the next few weeks with charlie will be very interesting. ill need to stop over at the library and maybe check out some puppy training books. i have no idea what im doing. or thinking. oh jeez.
things are really underway. what a week. im happy its almost over. this might've been the worst week ever. i got in an 8 car accident, destroying my beloved saturn, found out i had strep, and therefore became basically a leper for thanksgiving and on top of it all, came pretty close to not being able to get the aforementioned puppy. i dont know whether to say what next or think that it can only go up from here. well, im going to see "lars and the real girl" with whitney and maybe jj tomorrow, and tessie, my favorite bernese mountain dog, might be staying with me tomorrow night. i guess i just need to take it day by day and try not to let myself get too overwhelmed with everything. ugh. christmas can't come soon enough. i miss eric.
