edit: nevermind, it turns out resa did have my password somehow.... which is bizarre since ive never given it to her. anyway, things are alright now,
in any case, i got to see adam tonight and that was awesome b/c i <3 him. im sorry i didnt call you back, AJ, but it looked like it was going to be couple-y [though unintentionally so] and i didnt want to put you in any awkward position. im going to miss you adam, and im very sorry that i didnt make more time for you the past few weeks, and no i dont think that i was really excused for that - you are a very dear friend and youre leaving for a while and i would very much have liked to spend more time with you before you leave.
tomorrow is going to be a busy day... adoptions in the morning, then my first real day back at work [i say real b/c monday was so slow i didnt really do anything and i got to leave at 8, whereas tomorrow will be busy and i'll be staying until 10 so it will feel more like it's supposed to]. i saw most of my coworkers at the employee meeting on tuesday so hopefully there wont be any tearful apologies/advise, not that i dont appreciate their intentions. anyways, after work i have to get cleaned up and get packed b/c kyle and i are leaving for biloxi very early sunday morning. we're taking a huge truckload of supplies down to the Jackson Co Animal Shelter, i believe, and we may take a trip to a second shelter as well if we have the time. i dont know if we'll be able to do any hands-on animal rescuing like i wanted to, but kyle said if we came across any animals in need we would definitely try to get them. kyle is awesome like that.
speaking of kyles, barton tried to eat my exit pursued by a bear, but i took it away from him.
in any case, kyle and i will be back very late monday night, which is extra awesome b/c i have a physiological psych test at 9:30am on tues and i havent been to class since the first day. so guess what i'll be studying in the car...
i caught a baby copperhead in the apt parking lot tonight. it was soooo cute! i named it tonto, but erik wouldnt let me keep it so i let it go in the grass. ive been having a lot of really neat insect/reptile encounters, and at first they made me really sad b/c i always took things like that over to my daddys when i caught them to show to him, and whenever he caught something he would save it until i could come over to see it. it was one of our things we did and i got so depressed b/c i cant do that anymore. but then i thought, maybe this is daddys thing that he's brought to show me, b/c i hadnt seen many cool insects/reptiles until recently and it makes me feel a little better if i can believe that my daddy is involved with that. for instance, theres this beautiful black and blue butterfly that hangs out on our balcony for no apparent reason. i went out there one day and it crawled out onto my hand and just sat there for several minutes, poking its little tongue thing around searching for nectar. ive never seen a butterfly that would do that, and it came back almost every day for a week. that really made me happy.
anyways... im gonna go now and try to pack a few things before bed. we close on our house next weds, and start moving in on saturday night. so basically thats only a week away and we havent packed a single box yet, and next week will be crazy busy. as will the week after that. i need to pack up both the apt and the condo, and it doesnt look like i'll be getting much help with the latter at this point. we'll see.
goodnight.
