Here it is, another night, I'm exhausted and I can't sleep. I don't think I've gone to bed at a normal time since he left. I've resorted to reading "All Creatures Great and Small" by James Herriot about a benevolent Yorkshire veteranarian who does a lot of...I guess you have to read and find out. Anyway Nick had Veteran's Day off and had a two hour break. I missed his call because I was sitting in a Math meeting about open ended questions. You know: Instead of 50 + 50 you say "I have 100. What are two numbers I could use to find the sum of 100" Yes, that will solve all of our questions. Watch out Singapore, Here come the mighty open ended US of A. Anyway, so I was pretty bummed about that. I could have really used a good ole' chat with the hubby.
AND I've had a crappy attitude since, lets say, around, hmmm, Sept 21 when he left. I will try and think of some pro's to his absence. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. My hair is longer than when he left. I have several new pairs of retail therapy pants. Come to think of it I DO feel better now!
Okay, so my cable box is broken. What do I love/loathe more? Do I love cable more than I loathe calling strangers? And you would think I have an instant solution to this since my bro is the guy who fields calls from angry Comcast costumers...but no one has been able to get in touch with him for like 2 weeks. (Marshall, please contact me and reassure me of your safety if you read this blog...) And I'm mostly afraid that someone will come in and be like..."You are dumb. It is just unplugged" And I can't find the iPod charger. I haven't looked that hard, but I can't find it. I was a woman who was born to need a man. Or a caretaker. Do you think I could get a nanny like in that movie "Ms. Pettigrew lives for a day"? I could call her my "social secretary", but everyone would know that was a rouse!!! She'd be like "Today you have to call Tara and talk about hemlines" "Tomorrow you have an appointment with your couch" "Don't forget to hang out with your cat all weekend"
The children have not been awful. In fact, I have only felt mildly annoyed by them lately, but I've been making them take a lot of tests...I had my 90210 Tuesday with my teacher friend Sarah, that gets us through the week at school, watching rich teenage make out drama. I will make it!
Love, Kaley
