Life Update 1.0

I thought I'd post a little information about what's been going on in my life lately. Honestly, not too much, but I thought my readers might be curious, and so here we go:

-E.'s brother J. has moved in with us on a temporary basis. He's really nice and we all get along really well, so far. E. warned me that the two of them might end up on non-speaking terms by the time this is all said and done, but I am just not getting that vibe. I think this is going to be a good situation for all involved.
---> Speaking of J., he did my "birth chart" and it is eerily accurate! I'm very impressed.

-I'm going to school, full-time. (still! I haven't dropped out yet! HOORAY!) I'm also making A's in all my classes, which makes me feel very good about my competency. I have, however, developed a bit of a procrastination streak, as I did not do any work at all yesterday, and I haven't done any work today, thus far. I need to take care of this problem, and ensure that it doesn't really *become* a problem.

-National Novel Writing Month (aka NaNoWriMo --> See the graphic to the right) is just a few short weeks away and I'm super excited about it. I'm excited for two reasons 1) I'm looking forward to the writing challenge itself and 2) I'm looking forward to the social aspect. Last year, I got involved with other local "WriMo's" and made a few friends. It was a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to meeting up with them again (we've lost touch these past few months) as well as making new friends.

-E. and my wedding is less than 6 months away! WOO HOO! Lets just pray that the divorce is final in time. *bites nails*

-The mental health clinic where I received treatment closed. Ka-put. Gone for good. My therapist told me she will take me with her to her new job. As for my psychiatrist? No word. He just gave me 3 months of refills and wished me the best of luck. Actually, I'm exaggerating for effect. In truth, he just gave me 3 months of refills. Didn't even wish me luck. :( SO, I'm in the market for a new psychiatrist...I hate being bounced around. Grr.

-I've gained 5 pounds. This normally would not make it into the "news" section of my blog, but you see, a beautiful wedding dress was purchased and if I gain too much weight, I won't be able to wear it. That would be beyond terrible. :( carrot sticks and celery for me!

I think that's about it. The leaves are starting to change and the temperature is dropping. This is my favorite time of year and I'm preparing to enjoy every minute of it. :)

~Until next time...
