So I survived graduation, the call service, the first of my friend's weddings, a 13 hour car trip with my grandma, and my brother's graduation. It was a bit emotional, a bit stressful, and I'd just like to go back to school... or at least have my room back. My grandma is in it at the moment, which is fine, but all my stuff is strewn throughout the house, a majority of it located in a large pile in the garage. Getting dressed is an adventure every morning. Outfits must be able to change at a moments notice in case the proper shoes are not able to be unearthed from the pile of junk. (I have come to terms with the fact that I have too much stuff. I have not quite accepted that I need to do something about it yet... give me time.)
Heading back to WI tomorrow... I've only been home for 5 days. I'll be happy to go back. Home is great, but the prospect of being here until August is a bit intimidating at the moment. Thankfully I will be back in WI for a weekend in June and then there's worship conference in July, which I look forward to in great anticipation after a few new friendships formed at the end of this year.
Working in the same place again... it's almost like I never left, especially since I'm working on some of the same filing and spreadsheet projects that I started last summer. Apparently it's not important enough to be done in the winter. It still stinks, but it's a good job, and I'm going to need the money for next summer, which I envision to be a summer of bliss before becoming a real teacher. I fully intend on spending weeks with random family members between weddings, and probably only coming home for my graduation party. Although, come to think of it, I'm going to have to have a graduation party on a Wednesday or something, as every weekend is full of weddingness... maybe I can do a quick flight or something. I guess I have a bit of time to figure that out.
Well, I suppose I should email a few people and then head off to bed... it's going to be a long day tomorrow with the flying and such.
