the past couple of days have been too much to digest or post about, so i've been sticking to the safe QOTD questions until i had some time to sit down and catch up.

chuck got the job.

i'm so happy for him, but ever since he told me, i feel panicky.  he's going to be working further away, we're going to be moving within the year, he's going to be more stressed out, he's going to be home less,  things are going to change.  this is our first big change as a couple, and i'm not really worried about it, but i am concerned.

he has to go to germany for two weeks.  we thought it was going to be in november, but now its going to be in february (thank god). 

i don't know why this whole situation is making me nervous.  i never thought i'd be the kind of person to get all weird and nervous and stuff about change.

ahh, he wants to talk to me now, i'll post more later.

i've had a horrible headache since yesterday.

yesterday we went to six flags and i had a horrible lapse in judgement and decided that i wanted to ride not one, but two wooden roller coasters, which successfully jolted my neck and head to the worst headache that i have ever experienced.

oh dear, erika, what have you done?

i had the day off today because of columbus day (woo bank holidays!) and spent most of it sleeping on the couch.  my headache will go away for a bit, but then it will come back full force.  its horrible.  chuck and i were out walking tonight and all of the sudden it came back so badly that i couldn't see right and almost lost my balance.

chuck thinks i'm dehyrdated so he's been making me drink like 5 glasses of water now.  it'll be a wonder if i don't pee myself in bed tonight with how full my damn bladder is going to be, and i keep telling him to remember that he sleeps with me.  he seems to have faith in my urinary tract or muscles or both.  i hope he's right.

speaking of chuck, he's got a HUGE second interview with a company in york tomorrow.  if he gets it, that means more money for us.  if he gets it, that means we will be moving to a new home within the next couple of months, because its too ridiculously far for him to drive to york everyday from where we live now.

crossing my fingers... this would be a great opportunity for him, and he needs to get out of his current job.  its a bad situation and he's just getting more and more frustrated about it.

i start my new job on wednesday!  i spend tomorrow at my old branch, tying up loose ends, and then i get to go to my new (old) branch and sit at my new (old) desk.  i'm going back to the branch i started at, only now in a different position.  i can't wait to get back to working with people who know what they're doing.  people i can learn from, instead of everyone learning from me.  it'll be a new and great experience, and it'll make me a better employee in the long run.

anyway, i think i'm going to head to bed.  i wanted to stay up and make sure all of my laundry was dry and folded, but its all dry, so i think that's enough of an accomplishment.  plus my stinkin' head hurts.

oh please let my headache go away by tomorrow morning....

i've officially moved in with chuck and we've been so so busy moving things around and making it comfortable for both of us to live here.

we're finishing the downstairs bedroom and turning it into a den for him so he can move his desk down there.  then we cleaned out his current office's closet so that i can have my own closet.  we're bringing furniture over from my mom's, taking furniture back to his mom's, going to either walmart or home depot at least once a day... what a freaking process.  we're having so much fun though.  its fun doing home repairs with my honey.  its nice to be working together to accomplish a goal like this.

we're heading over to my mom's house now to get a jacket that i can wear on the motorcycle because its getting chiiiiilly out, and labor day's not even over yet.  goodbye summer! :(

oh and i need more hangers.  i should have pictures to post tonight because we're heading to his friend mike's house to hang out with some of his college friends.  i asked him if any of his ex girlfriends would be there so i can glare at them, and he said 'no, i don't think so, and why would you do that?' and i said 'well what else am i going to glare at?' and then i collapsed in a fit of giggles and he just shook his head at me.

i'm silly.

okay, chuck keeps asking if i'm ready yet, so that probably means it was time to go about 5 minutes ago.  toodle-loo!
