no game for me tonight

that is the consensus of my throat, nose and lungs this evening.

however i did go get coffee with mom, which means i have energy. just no voice.
i am currently making myself some echinacea tea with which to combat the stuffy ickyness.
wow....
i can tell when i have been reading ashoe's lj. i start thinking in her words (luv ya, babe!)

( mother madness )

i AM feeling more human than yesterday and hoping to be at the CotC thing tomorrow eve.
in the meantime i have an extensive TO DO list.
top of that list is to get my car inspected.
which feels awfully silly since i will be changing states soon. but maybe i can get some kind of discount on the va car-tax.
i also need to start thinking about packing.
i have a lot of CRAP.
not furniture, mind. just crap.
soap-making stuff, candle-making stuff, gardening stuff, linens, kitchen stuff....everything that's been collecting dust in the garage for the past two years while i live without a lot of space to invade....
teehee....i'm a space invader....teehee.
alright. WAY too punchy. gotta stop that.

i got accepted at luther seminary as a non-program student.
which means that now i get to decide whether to take hebrew or greek (again).
i would take german, but they aren't offering it for credit.
i am LEANING toward hebrew. more useful than ancient greek unless you are trying to use it to dig up meanings in english or german.

in the meantime i am in straight denial about two things:
A. that i have to write three papers between now and may 4
and
B. how much i am going to miss all of you. when i got involved with owbn last june (has it only been nine months that i've known ya'll?!) i had no CLUE how many friends i was going to make or how much ya'll would come to mean to me. thank you so much for making me feel welcome and cared for.
i am blessed to have such friends and i hope you will not forget me when i go.

i am contemplating throwing a big party at some point before i go. the trick is to figure out when.
