As I sit here this evening, I have three things open on my computer: this page, which I am currently writing, popsugar.com, and my final research essay. I will give you one guess as to which one is getting the most viewing (hint: not the essay).

You guys, I just don’t feel like writing about living wills and finding sources and MLA citations and all that crap. I want to find a good book and read it in the tub, with a glass of wine. I want to take full advantage of the late sunshine and go on long bike rides. I want to…hell, watch chick flicks all night long. ANYTHING besides this stupid research paper. I know, I know, it’s my last one, and all I have is 200 more words to write, and then I will be done for an undetermined amount of time with school, but good lord I am so not interested.

The girls left for their dad’s today. It’s…I don’t know. It’s always such a draining time for me, the last weeks before their visit. Now that they are older, and since spending a year away in Korea, I’ll admit today wasn’t as hard as it’s been in the past but still…I mean, you can’t live with kids 10 months of the year and then not notice they aren’t there. So.

We had to stay at the airport until the plane took off, which meant I didn’t get to work until 1:30, but oh my god, like…before I had even made it to my desk, I had two messages in my hand and a post-it on my computer screen. It was almost ridiculous how busy I was today. I swear at one point, I was on the phone, and three other lines were for me. Do I even need to tell you how fast the day went? It was like, “Hi everyone, the drop-off went well…holy crap, time to go home ALREADY?” And then I came home and fully exploited one of the benefits of having no kids for awhile: for dinner I opened up a can of green beans and ate them with my fingers. I don’t want to hear about how gross that is! Do you not eat three-bean salad? Is it not cold? For the record, that is how I grew up eating them. Or something…maybe? I don’t remember, but regardless, I fully support the eating of cold canned green beans for dinner. Just so you know, my strange eating habits do not stop there. I could write a whole post, in fact, about the strange things I like to eat. Hmmm…I’ll have to remember that. What I was saying, though, was that my mom asked me the other day what I wanted her to cook on my first day home. My answer? Liver. Mmmm…my mom makes the best liver ever.

DON’T WANNA HEAR IT!!!

Tschuss!!
