busy like whoa
if i didn't find the time to post anything last week when i only worked 20 hours... i sure won't this week when i'll be clocking close to 60
life is busy. the 'rents are selling the house, i'm going to new jersey this weekend and then road-tripping out to ohio the week of memorial day (it's wedding season... hooray), as well as trying to fit in the whole work/eat/sleep trifecta and (hopefully) getting everything finalized for the ever-elusive internship for next fall
so... i probably won't be back here until things calm down again sometime in june. and by "here," i mean "this blog," and to a lesser degree "maine." so don't bother stopping back here 'till then, unless you're one of those people who likes reading the same thing every day. and i sincerely hope you're not
later

(oh, and memo to the weather gods: thanks for the rain. you can stop now. no really... i think a week of rain is enough. two would just be overkill)
windshield wipers hate me
i won't apologize for the lack of recent activity here. i'm busy, and i have higher priorities than blogging (namely, sleeping and eating). work is going really well... i feel like i'm finally in a groove at both jobs. it's nice to be able to roll into work every day, know what you're supposed to do, and know that you'll be able to do it well. it's a comforting feeling
it rained all day today, pretty hard, and it's supposed to rain for most of tomorrow. this normally wouldn't be a big deal, except for the fact that my right-hand side wiper blade decided to spontaneously quit. it's not a big deal, since i can still see fine, but it figures that it'd pick the first rainy day in a while to take a vacation. i've had a horrible run of luck with wipers; this is my third car in a row that has had some quirky fluke with them. the stylus had to have the wiper motor replaced, and after that you had to time when you turned the wipers off just right, otherwise they'd stop right where they were, like in the middle of the window. then with the saab, whenever you put them on the "intermittent" setting, they'd stop at random times, intervals, and locations. it was really weird. and now, i'm down to 50% functionability. so i'll probably try and get that fixed sometime soon
i have next week off from delorme. i wish i didn't, but they're doing some remodeling and inter-office relocating, so they need some time to get things moved around and squared away. normally i'd appreciate the time off, but i'm already taking the last week of the month off from both jobs to head out to ohio (wedding, get-togethers, etc.), so it's a little painful in the pocketbook to have another unpaid mini-vacation. oh well. at least i'll get to do some catching-up on sleep
red sox/yankees got rained out. bummer.
i went to get fitted for a tux yesterday, and three different people asked me if i was getting ready for prom.
NO. i am probably at least five years past the prom-eligible (minus moms and creepy older boyfriends) stage of my life. yes, i realize it's that time of year, but may/june are also a pretty big couple of month for weddings last time i checked. and i'd like to think that i'm beyond "preppy high schooler" typecasting, and am close to gaining "grizzled warehouse veteran" status
oh well. there's worse things in life than looking young
