Weekend Highlights: I Interrupt This Belated Post

I took a dozen pictures of an ominous sky this weekend but the much-hyped Hurricane Bill passed by without much more excitement. Allegedly, there was rain but I slept through it. Awful convenient.

I snuck away from the office yesterday to interview for an awesome position but never made it there because I spent an hour getting lost on the south shore. Even if I got the directions down, I’d never manage to commute so far on a daily basis. From the parking lot of gas station, I cancelled while choking back tears and spent the rest of the day being a sad little rock. I’d seen the light at the end of the work tunnel and just as quickly had it ripped away. WHY?? Is this because I doubted the power and majesty of Hurricane Bill?!

Now, I could care less and it has absolutely nothing to do with the bottle of wine sitting in my kitchen. I got a call while catching up with work this morning. It was Bologna. At 5:00 am, she sprung (sprang? spranged? springed?) a leak and by the time I sat down to my morning coffee, she was on her way to the hospital. The majority of my day was spent in true bipolar fashion, alternately shrieking at vendors and pestering Bologna for updates. At last check, they estimated Nugget would be birthed tomorrow.

Which means, my sister made a human. Seriously. She hasn’t been faking it this entire time like we all suspected. She made an entire person and science suggests that that person will one day grow a personality and perhaps even roll his eyes at me. Also, T may have been involved.
