So, tomorrow, we’re moving. Fun times. It’s not supposed to rain tomorrow - thank God! I’ll be without Internet access, at least for the weekend. Not that I post enough for you to notice I’m gone, but I thought I’d let you know just in case.

A small problem has arisen and that would be that I cut the heck out of my finger at work today and now it’s in a splint. The finger’s OK; I didn’t need stitches, though the doc said if I had gotten checked out in a more timely manner (oops), he would have used that glue stuff. But since I didn’t (oops), I need to wear this splint so the wound doesn’t re-open.

Moving is going to be a lot of fun with a huge splint on my middle finger. “See” you in a few days.

I don’t know if people from outside New England hear about this stuff, but Patrick Kennedy has been on my heart and in my prayers this week. If I understand one thing, it’s the heartbreak of addiction, and the heartbreak of having a family member in & out of rehab. I guess that’s actually 2 things Anyway, if you’re the praying type, do say a prayer for Patrick and his family.

Did I mention that I had a birthday this week? I went to my 2 favorite restaurants - Taco Bell for lunch and Shawarma King for dinner! Roy got me a little gourmet carrot cake - num, num. It was all-in-all a good birthday.

And as of 1:30 PM today, Roy & I are officially homeowners! I feel so grown up. Now we can get a dog! I went to the MSPCA to visit some dogs last week, and left practically in tears. I wanted to take them all home, especially a cute pit bull terrier named Bella. She was the only dog not barking, and when I put my hand near her cage, she just gently licked it over and over! It just broke my heart. I think I’m going to have to stick to looking at the dogs on the MSPCA’s website.

Sorry I’ve been absent for so long. My site was down for almost a week, and I got out of the habit of updating.

Tomorrow, I’ll be 31. So old!

The closing on the condo is supposed to be this Friday, God-willing.
