Details:
Getting married in less than three months (wow, deep breath) to a really, really great person. He makes me dinner every night, and I make breakfast & lunch. He gives me good input on my work. He's responsible & makes all the phone calls I don't want to. He makes me laugh until I pee. He loves my legs.
The combo of work, wedding planning & bills ... is overwhelming me. If I were more important, I'd hire a personal assistant to do all the little crap for me. I worked all night last night on two projects at once, one of which was canceled this morning (thank Jesus). I'm avoiding doing my taxes, but the guilt is weighing on me more than the fear.
My mother & I are in a bit of a limbo. She says she feels she can't open up to me lately, but yesterday we had a really great conversation, and I learned a lot about the way she communicates. I also learned a lot about her needs, my needs, and the happy medium. Progress.
We're making friends with other couples, two in particular. One is loud & fun & drunk most of the time, the other is more reserved but very open minded & thoughtful (also drunk). We're having a great time getting together weekly. Ever played Apples to Apples? Yeah, it's great.
If I could be anywhere in the world right now, I'd fly to the beach, anywhere, & lay in the sun all day until I fry like bacon. Or I might just go hop into bed with a newly washed pair of socks on & stare outside at all the slush.
Back to work now, I suppose..
