New Host & Other Updates

Just a quick entry... I've got a lot of things to do before heading over to Bella's. I switched web site hosting providers, which is going to save me the headaches of dealing with the idiots at the old provider AND $20 per month. As a result my email address has changed.

We had a family meeting at my Mom's house last night... it kind of wore me out emotionally. I accidentally dug up some old issues between my Mom and I that would have been better off left alone. I am trying (I think we both are, really) to repair our relationship and I just hope nothing I may have said last night hurt that. I did apologize to my Mom, so I think I may have left her feeling better about things. I hope so, anyway.

She did make a very valid point that I never seem to write good things about her in here. That is demonstrative, I think, of how our relationship had been. But now that things are slowly but surely getting better between us, I know I will be able to write about how our relationship is improving.

I've had two days of class so far. I like it a lot... it's actually fun!

I have JURY DUTY on Monday! If I'm lucky I won't actually have to serve, but knowing my luck....

Max and Frida (my parakeets) are really starting to check out the nest, so maybe come spring....

Bella had an interview at a job fair and it sounds like it went really well. I have a very good feeling about it. I'm so excited for her! She's going to make a fantastic English teacher....

Well, I better finish getting ready. Maybe I'll do an audio post later....

18 Months!

Mood: Tired but Excited

It's been 18 months since Bella and I started dating. Wow! How lucky am I?!? Our relationship is stronger than ever. That may or may not have to do with the fact that Bella just gets more beautiful every day. I like to watch her when she isn't aware. But she can usually "feel" when I'm staring at her.

We won't be able to do much for this anniversary, but maybe some QT is all we need. To bad we both have to get up early tomorrow.

Speaking of which, tomorrow will be my third day in the Graphic Arts class. I really enjoy it so far. I'm learning Adobe Illustrator, and I've decided I like it a lot. It's very technical, but once you get the hang of it.... The only problem is I have to wake up at 5:30 to catch the bus at 6:30 to get me to class by 7:30. (It gets me there at about 7:05.)

I never did write the more detailed story of the adventure I went on to get my glasses. But now I don't have time! Haha! Oh well, not much of a story, anyway.
