here I am

normal

March20

Life is back to normal today. I already miss Melissa – she’s good company, and doesn’t mind just hanging around! Some people, when they visit, like to constantly go and do things (I tend to be like that) to take advantage of time together, but not Melissa. This visit, anyway. I was sick and she let me be sick.

I’m better now, so things are back to normal there, too. I stopped throwing up almost as suddenly as I started, but I was still feeling badly until Saturday. I ate my first real meal on Saturday, which, incidentally, was the day my closest girlfriend got engaged. =) I got to be in on the plot.

Melissa and I drove to Indy on Saturday to kidnap Bethany from the Work Day at church and take her to a garden at the Art Museum where James surprised and proposed to her. She asked me to be her matron of honor – I’m so excited! She did all the work of a maid of honor for me, even though she was a bridesmaid. I get to return the favor – hopefully, I’ll be able to come up with some really great ideas.

I’m back to applying for jobs and submitting unemployment claims today. The interview last week went well, I thought, though for the first time I came away feeling very young. Working with people older than I am doesn’t intimidate me, but something about the way the interview ended made me feel like a kid. Anyway, after the interview, I was given a project to see what I could do. I had a hard time finding time to do it… I wanted to spend the time with Melissa, and Shawn (who came to visit for an evening), but I had to get that finished and turned in. At least it’s finished.

Now, my task is to finish Elayne’s church’s website. I have about 7 emails from the pastor and Elayne with pictures and ideas and things to do, and have yet to get started on them… So here I go!

    Hey, did you notice that Matt Mullenweg has added Andreas04 to WordPress.com? If not, take a look here: http://wordpress.com/blog/2006/03/18/andreas04-and-thirteen/ (don’t forget to read the comments!).

    However, the footer credits have been messed up so I suggest that you send a note to the admins and ask them to add your original credits back (“WordPress adaption by Tara Aukerman | Original design by Andreas Viklund” with links to your site and to mine). Right now it looks like I built the theme (although your name is visible in the theme selection area), and people who have opinions and suggestions about it send them to me when they should really send it to you. ;)

    Congrats!

    No, I had no idea! I emailed the admins – hopefully you’ll stop getting the support emails. Thanks!
