quickly.

because i really should be in bed right now...

{my loves, wading - ocracoke island, nc august 2009}

i've been daydreaming about the beach. it's kind of funny when you think about it considering i live at the beach. well, about a 15 minute drive from it. but, i don't want my beach. i want playa del carmen's beach or hatteras island's beach. can memorial day weekend hurry up and get here, please?? {because, yes, we'll be beach bound.}

lots has been going on & i have regained my status as slackest blogger of all time.

got some good news last week that made me leap for joy. adam & i celebrated with sushi. of course, i will not absolutely believe it until i see the money in my account {my unemployment battle worked out in my favor}. adam got some semi-good news, too. but, his is work-related and he's not pursuing anything until all of his icky drama has been resolved. but, still, good news is good news.

we enjoyed our week off as parents. the kids spent last week {a.k.a. spring break} with my parents. adam & i spent our kidless week working ridiculous hours and going to home depot. woo hoo!

if i could cut my head off, i would probably feel much better. spring fever has taken its toll on me. i'm a stuffy, puffy, watery mess. i can't breathe. i feel like something is stuck in my eye. my nose is all flaky & yucky from tissue abuse. and, i've come to terms with the fact that yellow is indeed the new black.

i have all sorts of fabulous blog ideas running through this {stuffed up} head of mine but absolutely no energy to get them typed up.

a co-worker calls me shell and i like it.

i gorged myself at a korean buffet on saturday night and i haven't felt the same since. i think i overdid it on the duk bok gi {i know i totally did not spell that right}. i also brought home some chocolate frozen custard from carl's and i have yet to eat any of it. that's how effed up my tummy is feeling. pretty awful considering i'm turning down chocolate.

dare i say that another southeastern virginia blogger meet up could possibly be in the works? nothing is official yet, but i'm hoping something can be planned for the very near future - brunch? line dancing? something?

there's more, but i should really be going to bed. late nights & early mornings just don't set well with me anymore. i guess it's a sign that i really am getting old. bummer.
