1. What was the last thing you ate?
I had yaki onigiri with soy/mayo/sriracha sauce. It was delicious!
2. What is your favorite dessert?
Hrm. OK, boring me...it's pudding. Seriously. I love me some pudding.
3. Circus or carnival?
Carnival! I am opposed to circuses due to animal welfare issues.
What about you guys?

we're playing d&d for the first time since we got the nandor puppy and it's nice. :) break in the action so i'm here. hi. =D
today kid and i spent a few hours in my bed watching "supernatural" -- we're on season two and the next episode is "heart" which is one of the BEST written episodes in the entire series. i have only watched it once, so this will be...interesting. i'll have my tissue ready. =(
speaking of kid, i'm going to tell you, raising a teenager is not for the faint of heart. while i GET what happens just bc she's a teenager, she is teaching me a fuckton of patience. even more than horses do. o.O so, anyway, spending the time with her in such a nice way was good for both of us. we've been so housebound for soverylong that we're all on each others' last nerve, so we're doing the best we can, you know?
i will admit that who she is becoming is alien to me in some ways; instead of finding this disconcerting, i've been trying to see it as an opportunity to see this little person become a big person. sad, bittersweet, but beautiful nonetheless. i hope she and i will be OK. that said, there have been a few times recently i've told the mister that i'm not going to hate when she moves out. lol i don't mean it -- he knows it, i know it, we all know it -- but frustration sometimes has a voice.
----------
a little while earlier today, i went back over some entries from five+ months back and saw that we were talking about me quitting even then but i mentioned that mister's OT had dried up because he was working from home (and still is). that changed like right after i mentioned it which is why quitting could happen, and with larger projects coming up, that won't change. what's NICE is that the work from home thing is looking very long term if not permanent and the idea of being home with him without the worry of MY work and a long commute is really appealing. we're still not sick of each other after 13 months of ALL UP in each other's business. mostly because he's awesome. me? not as much. :(
we are still waiting for a few bits of info before moving forward with any more decision making. i'm still hopeful it works out, but if it doesn't and i do have to go back to work, it will be just for a year.
i can do most anything for a year.
part of me worries that i will be bored with not working at a "real job" within a month. the other part is thrilled with the thought of what might come from saying no more.
HOW. EXCITING.
(and scary)
ok.
time to kill some vampires.
(currently, i have a ring of mind shielding on that contains the soul of a gnome that we accidentally killed. OOPS. i'm trying to convince him to leave the ring so i can store part of my own soul in there. little bastard is balking.)
