My So-Called Life

I had a pretty good Thanksgiving this year, although it became painfully obvious that my family is a dysfunctional mess, lol. We must have the strangest conversations in Thanksgiving history. But, Thanksgiving dinner also doubled as a third birthday party for my little cousin Grace, and she is absolutely darling. Still, I wanted to go home about 2 earlier than I was able to....oh, well. I had an amazing weekend with Carrie. She is going to help me redecorate my apartment, so as soon as that comes together, I'll try to post photos on here....I feel absolutely in love, and am very happy. However. today is back to reality. I have two doctors appointments this afternoon. The first one includes a fasting blood test. I can't sleep, and now I have to go without food for about 12 more hours. Thus, I am slightly grouchy. Also, my mother is acting as chauffeur for me this afternoon, which means that I have to deal with her being picky and critical. But, I don't have to see her, or do anything unpleasant, until Thursday. And Thursday will be fun- Mum is taking me out to lunch, in honor of my 32nd birthday. Say what I will about Mum, she is usually extra sweet on my birthday. So....I'm going to go curl up in bed with a book, and perhaps try to get some sleep. Ciao!
