Oh my, we picked Tiffany up at the airport and took Maddox and he got so much attention and pets he was overwhelmed and fell asleep on Tiff while we waited for her baggage. Poor little guy!!!



In the Happy News department, Nick has a new home, YES! Well, papers to be signed Monday, but he won't be homeless and the new flat is absolutely beautiful. And, he got his internship, so that definitely means that come February, Nick will be hopping on that big beautiful Lufthansa plane and zooming his way here for his first visit to the U.S. I cannot WAIT to show him how life is here, as I so enjoy exploring the German culture there. The only bad thing is I will have to work every day, except for the week I take off for our road trip to my sister's and hopefully [livejournal.com profile] humming_along's new digs. I am so worried he will get bored, stuck here with three dogs, the house, and waiting on me.

It will be SO nice to come home to a good German meal every night... whee! LOL. (Nick is a really good cook and I can't wait to load him up in the car and go to the German Deli and buy all the proper mixes and ingredients he'll need).

I was bored and lonely at home tonight, even the puppy was asleep, so I put him in the crate and went to B&N for an hour or so. I haven't been in there in quite awhile and it was quite nice and fun. Got a vanilla latte (S/F F/F) and browsed and chatted to people and the guy who made my coffee for me sang The Snicker's Song (???) to me. LOL. Flirty much? Too funny. I looked at the non-fiction table, and the calendars as we don't have a 2007 and it has been driving me nuts--got an August 07 to December 08 Butterfly calendar. Absolutely gorgeous. Now *I* can start marking off the days to Nick's visit. Whee!!!!

How odd, I had a thought and it disappeared out of my head.

So, that means, I must of course now go to bed!

Nite all!

He is truly amazing; he moved out here knowing I was Stage IV & *could* be terminal at some point. That was the first time in my life that I actually believed someone truly loved me; I always had doubt/self-worth/self-loathing issues in all my other relationships. But that one thing was the closest I'd ever been to unconditional love in my life (except maybe my mom, ya know?)

Yes, we've had fights, past relationship issues & triggers to work through, and we NEVER expected to have to deal with a disability, just a deathbed vigil, really (I know it's morbid, but you gotta be realistic...)

So yah, including family & friend's perspectives would be a must as well...

Greatness. Yeah, Russ is pretty amazing (he's not on my lj so we can talk about him).

I think talking about the morbid makes it less morbid. Takes the mystery out of it or something.
