Friday. That's when I discover the culmination of this "thing" that's been brewing. Jason mentioned before that I'd be the last to know, and I can see why. My family, a couple of his friends, and even his daughter is in on it. Could it be? As I've mentioned before, I didn't want to over-analyze the situation because I don't want to set myself up and potentially get disappointed later. And I've been trying hard not to. But it doesn't help when hints are being dropped, and his daughter almost "slipped" in saying something earlier.
I guess all I can do is wait...
I need to keep myself pre-occupied. More importantly, I need to get some sleep...

Missing a connection
It's amazing how connecting on a certain level just reinforces things. For the past few weeks, and up until today, I felt as though I lost the connection. But recognizing and acknowledging it, helped with the realization of it. I'm good now.

Mental dump
*sigh* It's only been a week since my last post, but it feels like forever. Where does all the time go? And why does it feel like I can't keep up?
Birthdays
Since my last post, my nephew and niece celebrated their birthdays (it was combined in one day). Jason FINALLY met my brother, although they couldn't really get to know each other because my brother was busy with the birthday festivities. But at least they met.
Work
Work is... well, it's work. One of my co-workers is on vacation and I'm covering for her. In doing so, I realize that I'm so glad I'm not in that position anymore. There's only so much data entry/form processing/etc. you can do. It seems simple enough, yet some people just don't get it.
Fender bender
I was involved in a fender bender last Thursday. No one was hurt (thank goodness!), but it was my fault. I rear-ended the guy in front of me, but luckily I just damaged his bumper - minor dent (or so I thought), and some chipped paint. There was no damage to my car, just some scratches. But I'm officially a statistic. Texting and driving is not a good thing - even if you're at a red light. Being the "multi-tasker" that I am, I figured I would reply to a text, since I'm a red light. When I noticed that the light turned green, I slowly took my foot off the brake pedal, not realizing that the guy in front of me wasn't moving yet. And then smack! - right into his bumper. The guy was good about it though, and even tried to make light of the situation by saying that it was nice to meet me. Uh, not really the way I wanted to meet him! I asked him to get a quote for the damage, and depending on the cost, that would determine whether or not I would go through insurance. When he got back to me the next day with a quote, I nearly fell off my chair. $3000.00 is what he was quoted. WTF?!?! I've had my rear bumper replaced (twice), and had more damage than his and that cost me around $1500.00. So that kinda put a damper on my day. In the end, I have no choice but to go through insurance. Apparently, because of my "6-star" standing (the highest you can get), I don't have to pay a deductible. I also found out that I've been getting a 10% discount for the past 6 years, which is why my premiums have been low. So now, I drop to a 5-star rating, and my premiums go up about $200 for the year. Not bad, but still...
I want a new car...
Corporate challenge
I wasn't participating, but I was part of Jason's cheering squad. Him and a couple of his co-workers were mountain biking on Saturday, so I, along with a couple of his other friends, decided to go out and support him. He did pretty well, but I'm not sure on his overall standing.
20/20
I had my one-month post-op check up for my eyes, and I'm happy to say that I have 20/20 vision in both eyes! Woo hoo! I think I deserve a pair of shoes...lol!
I need a vacation
Or something. I haven't had a massage in 6 months now. My massage therapist went AWOL, and so I'm back to looking for another one. But, I have all these damn vouchers for massages to use and I haven't had a chance to book anything. I know I need to book them because I don't want them to expire. I also want to go shopping, but can't find time to do that either. I've been missing a couple of my yoga classes because of work, so now I have to figure out when to make them up. AAARRRGGGHHH!! I just need me time!!!
The pot is still brewing...
Might even be at the simmering stage. Even though I said before that I wasn't going to over-analyze it, I'm finding myself starting to wonder. But then I stop myself. And then something else will pop in my head, which gets me wondering again, and then I stop myself again. I'm having a tug-of-war with myself in my head, and it's bugging me.
On a happier note
Teagan has two more teeth that are wiggly, and she's waiting for the tooth fairy to come and give her two chocolates. Smart kid.
