is it Friday yet?

One more day to go… It seems like this week has just been one of those that drags by like no other. I’m just glad I’ve had some help getting through it. I’ve been really stressed out the last week… you want to name it, I’m probably dealing with it… I think the killer was Arwen being sick for three days… nothing more fun than a child who won’t stop throwing up for 3 days. I’m just glad its over *crosses fingers*
My birthday wasn’t too shabby aside from the sick kid aspect of things. One of those birthdays with events that span a couple of days, which is kinda nice. Thanks to everyone for the phone calls, texts, dinner, gifts… very awesome. :) The highlight being dinner at The Fort and the new shirts. Thank you so much! 🙂
Well, I have to say that in keeping with tradition it’s time I do something for myself as well. Grills and Xbox 360’s don’t quite cut it this year. Actually it’s kinda nice that this invitation coincides with all the havoc going on right now in my life. I truly need this. For my birthday I’m taking some vacation days and I just got approval for them… This time next week I will be on my way down to Mexico! No cell phone, No work, No havoc, No drama, nothing stressful … just good times and good people. Hopefully a nice relaxed environment where I can recollect my thoughts and look at clearing my mind while enjoying the visit with some really cool people from the area while I’m at it… A big shout out and a huge thank you to the Johnson’s for letting Arwen and I invade their home and for having us down, I look forward to seeing you all. 🙂 The timing couldn’t have been more perfect for this!
I’ll post up some pics and such when I get back, don’t worry. I’m only going to be gone from the 3rd through the the 7th, so it’s not that long … I feel some good will come of this trip, I’m really excited. :)Â Hopefully it’s a chance to reset and be able to tackle things better when I come back.
neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow ….

Happy Birthday to me…
ok… so, I guess in the grand scheme of things, this could be a lot worse.
Poor Arwen started getting sick last night… her stomach hurt and eventually it graduated into 12 hours of throwing up…. oh the joy.
The positive aspect, Jon and Kirsten didn’t mind watching her for a couple hours last night, despite her being sick so I did get to go hang out with Andy last night for a while – have some dinner with him and then stop by Dave and Busters to hang out with some friends for about 30 minutes… so, I did get out a little bit. 🙂 I got back here around 11:45 last night, hung out and talked on the phone for a few until my birthday rolled around… Thanks for the birthday wishes at midnight! 🙂
All in all not too bad… but sitting up with Arwen last night was draining. I was so ready to pass out… I was falling asleep and thought the worst was over with her and bam, time for an all nighter. I finally got to sleep at 7:45 this morning, so sorry I missed all the calls and text’s this morning from all of you. I was out cold. We’ll see how the rest of the day goes and hopefully I don’t get sick myself… I feel like crap right now, but I think that’s mainly due to the lack of sleep, general sympathy pains and the fact I don’t handle people throwing up very well… ugh…
I’ll post more later.
