Grrr. Stupid LJ ate a really good entry about what I like about myself and my life and recovery. Anyhow, whatever.
Not much to report on here. Just hanging around and waiting. Waiting for the wedding in t-5 months, and looking for a job and for a house. Housing prices here, by the way, for my fellow americans, are re-goddman-diculous. Seriously. For about $300,000 USD, we might get a three bedroom row house with a driveway, one toilet, and a miniscule yard. It's depressing!
Tomorrow is Jennie (Steve's sister)'s wedding reception in Maidstone, which should be fun. I am especially looking forward to seeing Steve's cousin's daughter who is 5 and is almost my favourite English person ever. So much fun, that girl is.
What are some essentials I should be looking for for my wardrobe? I have a couple pairs of jeans, black pants, a denim skirt and a white prarie skirt, and a jean jacket. I think I need a black cardigan and some workout clothes.
I'm meant to be going to the doctor for the first time here on Tuesday. My brave venture into the world of socialised health care! Hooray for me! I need to ask about an IUD, because I am sooooo sick of birth control that's chemical. I can't stand it. It makes me all hormonal and bitchy and bloated and constipated (way TMI, I know). I'm nervous about getting on the scale, but I might be OK if they do it in kilos, as Steve seems to think they will. I don't do metric. Hehe.
Oh, and why doesn't anybody ever tag me for these meme things???? What's up with that?!?
