e is for evacuate!

Well, not really.

I'm leaving tomorrow for the Los Angeles-area to attend a wedding and other family-related events. Yes, that means I'm going on blog hiatus yet again. Encyclopedia of Me will resume when I return and should have lots more fodder for cogitation as I begin my next new phase of life...gainful employment!

Seriously though, my life has been so out of whack lately. I've been waiting, and waiting, and waiting for my very good friend for whom I was fully expecting to go into the labor and delivery with and help coach has been stuck in her own personal holding-pattern labor hell for the past week. On again, off again contractions, pretty intense, fairly close together, but not quite close enough together to necessitate a trip to the hospital. And I've been trying, trying, trying to get ahead so that when I start work, I won't be too far behind. Preparing for this trip for Cali has me all discombobulated as I totally picked the wrongest, wrongest season to find white shoes to coordinate with flower girl dresses and hurriedly trying to prepare some wedding music. (which reminds me, I STILL need to practice the recessional...wait, I haven't even bought the music yet! crap!) Getting all my child/elder care arrangements in place I'm happy to say, has finally occurred and we're already underway.

So I'll be back next Wednesday. Hope you guys have a good time. I'll be peeking in your blogs and maybe sneaking in a post or two while I'm away if I can get to a computer. (no laptop, no fun!)

Ciao!

hmmmm, this is like a metaphor for my life right now...and I hope it's not a omen for tomorrow!
