    bad news - I'm having one of the worse AF of my life.  I'm completely miserable.  After 25+ years of having my period this is the first time I have every understood why a woman need the day off because of their period.good news - numbers were light on the half day trip and I was able to take the day off.






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    Good news- I went to the dentist yesterday (it's been a minute) and nothing is wrong. No cavities or anything bad. Bad news- Then they handed me the bill. Dental insurance is basically worthless.

    bad news--my parents participate as a presenting couple in the Pre-Cana program FI & I are attending this weekend.  Usually not a problem because they talk about communication or finances as their topic. One of the other presenting couples can't present, and no one wanted to take on that couple's topic. My parents being the nice people they are broke down and said they'll do it. So now FI & I get to listen to my parents discuss Sex & Sexuality.  Really?  good news--they provide beer for us at Pre-Cana Friday night, which is when my parents present their topics. So we'll have a buzz on to get us through this. And once we get through the rest of the class on Saturday, FI & I are meeting Salt & her Fi for dinner! YAY!

    yeah Salt, I don't think it's ay major detail, and more about the role sex plays in marriage in the eyes of the Catholic Church, and your relationship etc.  But still, I don't want to hear this from my parents. Seriously. I was like um, if that was me and no one wanted to take the topic, I'd be all for putting names in a hat to make it most fair.  And I know these people know I am in this class, like someone couldn't suck it up and volunteer to save us all the embarrassment?  some Christians they are LOL.

I LOVE Starbucks pumpkin lattes - have you tried their pumpkin frappucino? So good!

    Bad news:  I wound up in the hospital last weekend, I woke up and I was alone and had no idea how I got there!  It was crazy bizarre! Good news:  Only a little less than three months til FI comes home from deployment. I guess both of those kinda sound like bad news, but hey I like to try to find a positive in everything!  :)

    Bad News: the doctoral program I'm in has decided to radically change the course listings for the summer term meaning that I either have to be in Texas until 3 days before planned wedding date and also delay honeymoon, or change the wedding date, or tack an extra year onto the program, or protest to the dean to have original course listings honored (none of those sound good) Good News: finally told my lovely aunt very tactfully that I am very touched by the offer, but will not be wearing her wedding dress from 1974. Whew! Like this game :)
