Well... my, my my... it HAS been a long time. In case anyone wanted to know, the reason I've been away so long is that I got tangled up with a boy last year, about the same time I stopped writing. I was so smitten with him that the rest of my life became somewhat dissolved as I spent most of my time at his house watching The Simpsons. (I know, so educational, right? What can I say? Boys never grow up.) Anyway, I went through a year-long romance, spent mostly with the two of us frustrated at the other for one thing or another. But we discovered we couldn't live without each other, so about 7 weeks ago I married the knucklehead. Of course, I think he's about the most amazing knucklehead I've ever met, and I'm madly, hopelessly in love with him so... you don't hear me complaining. However, it also means that most of my time is now spent either at work or cleaning house. (My dearest sweetums wears a lot of dress shirts, so there's a lot of ironing to do.) It's interesting how my perception of myself has changed in the last few weeks, because for the first time in my life, I actually care how someone ELSE looks when he leaves the house-- as if it's some sort of direct reflection on ME! Can't imagine what it'll be like when we actually have kids. eek. All in due time...
So what else is new in my life, outside of this majorly gorgeous ring I have on my left hand (that he picked out all by himself! Take a note, fellas... it's WAY more impressive if you pick it out yourself. Just take her along on a few shopping outings, so you make sure you kind of know what she likes. If you get to the point where you can pick it out before she does, you know you're good to go.) Anyhoo... since the last time I wrote, I also started a new job. I'm working at AdCentives West, a promotional advertising company that provides pretty much anything you're looking for with your logo on it. So if you want your name slapped on a gross (that's 144 for the laymen in the crowd) of pens or USB ports or big sappy smiley-face pins E-MAIL ME! and I'll get you started.
OK, so I've set a goal for myself to start writing again more often. At least once a week. Don't know if anyone else cares, but... it's my blog-site, so I don't really give a hoot. Thank you.
PS - haha... OK, I had to laugh because I read a previous blog about the mouse in my house. Well, not even a week ago, right about the time I looked at this site again, my wonderful hubby and I were encroached upon by ANOTHER tiny invader-- but this time we CAUGHT him! HA! Take that, all you dirty, vile, little vermin out there. This is a reminder not to mess with Erin, because now she doesn't have to wait for her cousins to show up. She has a man with her RIGHT THERE to push him out of bed at 3:45 am and attack the nasty critty she hears stealing cookies in the kitchen. OK, no more hints. I'll write about it later. This was just a little disclaimer that we are not responsible for any future deaths of rodents that occur in our home. You have been warned.
