Rapidity

You know that saying, “Life is what happens while you’re making other arrangements?”

It was definitely in full force yesterday. I thought I was going to have a nice, relaxing lunch with my parents, then send them on their way. Instead, their car broke down on the Beltway, stranding them, my brother, and an eight month old overgrown shaggy dog of a puppy (yeah, try getting him in teh back of your miniature car!) for the majority of the day. Since my apartment doesn’t allow dogs, we’re in the midst of packing, AND Sailor Boy is in the throes of final-studying-before-bar, it meant I entertained my family (and the puppy) for all afternoon in a local park.

Then came home to discover we may have a few issues with the secret stuff going on. Big issues. MAJOR ones.

In between, I worked. A lot. And am still working now and will likely be working again at 6 a.m. this morning.

My other brother and his wife are also in town, so at least I get to take a break from all this work later today and go to lunch with my sister in law.

Right, and get my oil changed. And write 10 pages.

Is Jiffy Lube really “jiffy?” I need to know.

In other news, the rumors contest is still going strong. Check it out below.
