So, yesterday, I commented to Jeff that I was worried that it might take me forever to get a copy of Deathly Hallows through the library. In response, he suggested that possibly we should buy one. He then called the local Borders and asked if there was anyway to reserve one that late in the [...]

I can barely sit still I’m so fidgety. But I thought I would do a quick run down of how things are shaping up. Hopefully by this weekend I’ll have enough of a handle on myself to write a REAL entry.

So from tomorrow morning until late Thursday, we’ll be gone. Then I have my job interview on Friday… which so much pressure. I know it’s not meant to be, but it is.
So, the Family Drama (which I still feel is worthy of the caps) hasn’t really gone away, but my parents (or at least my [...]

This is a rant. And I’m sure that a few of you might find it nasty. Apologies in advance. I’m frustrated right now, and this is the best expression I’ve got.
Sometimes I just get so sick of reading/hearing the same thing over and over again. I read a few news-y/info-y adoption blogs (as opposed to [...]
