I'm fried these days and I find that my ability to cope with the being fried is limited. I keep running up against the wall. So I must confess I'm trying to actively either push through with no drama or rest. But I'm finding the balance is still sketchy and working is not really helping the situation. Though it is not hurting it either, two days of nanny-ing meant I could take my roommate to Coldplay for her 30th. Extravagant for a graduate student scraping by, yes, BUT she lives with the clusterf*ck that is a graduate student, so between helping me with my laundry, my general issues resulting from brain malfunctions etc, she totally deserved it. She also deserves the cake that I hope is not having a me like moment in the fridge at the moment. All 7 layers of it better hold together and firm up or I might cry, given the strawberry Swiss Meringue butter cream was a disaster... so we opted for a chocolate cream cheese frosting which is divine, but well maybe a little soft for 7 thin layers of cake... eek.
Well that's enough of an update, I need my bed.
PS No word from BelgianBoy, he's on the shelf, good thing we didn't work hard at a name for him.
Thinking of you tonight. We need to figure a night in (not decorating trees) and have your mind take a vacation.
