So, it's been brought to my attention that I've been severely MIA in the LJ dept. I guess I haven't thought that I had much to say.
Spring is here, and with it has come my allergy season, oh haapy day. Since the nice people who make Claritin decided to phase out their 12 hour Claritin D, I don't really have much of a day time antihisthamine. At night, I take two benadryl, which has the added benefit of helping me sleep.
Otherwise, things have been going pretty well. Jess has been psychotically busy at work, which when combined with her trip home(and thereby the loss of 3 study days), has had her stressed, so I've been doing my best to help her out when I can. I'm a much faster typist, having been forced to take typing classes while I was learning to be a medical assistant, so I've been acting as term paper typist. In return, I get her most excellent backrubs. It's a win win, since I'm up to nearly 70 words a minute. It takes me no time at all to get it done, and I get my muscles soothed. Yay!
Of course, this weekend, Jess is visiting her parents for Easter, so I'm at loose ends. Last night was our first 2nd. degree class, which was really great. We've waited for what feels like forever to get going.
Today, Shelly and I went up to Hersheypark for their annual "Springtime in the Park" thingie. It's basically, you get in for free, and pay for what you ride. You can get wrist bands, and ride unlimited rides for a deeply discounted rate as well. Unfortunately, it was fucking psycho. Not even in New Orleans at festival time have I been run into so many times. We managed to get on two rides; the railroad and the tilt a whirl.
During the wait for the train, Shelly managed to engage the guy ahead of us in discussion. Oddly, this was not her intent. He proceeded to tell us that he was here with his youth group, and that he was doing a term paper on Hershey. We're both pretty sure he was working into telling us how much Jesus loves us, but fortunately it was time to get on the train. We sat three cars away from him,needless to say.
Next, at the Tilt a Whirl, we were sandwiched between two seperate sets of hell children. The ones in front of us had brought a gameboy, which apparently rendered them blind and deaf, since they almost never seemed to hear their totally ineffective mother telling them to move up. After a while, we began walking around them, leaving themto catch up. This was important, as the children behind us could not stay still and spent most of the time banging into our asses. My inner Morrigan was counciling me to saw off their heads with my keys by the time we got on the ride.
We left soon after, giving our leftover tickets a couple with a cute baby. Hope they had better luck than we did.
Came home and dyed eggs. Tomorrow, will dodge church, and count hours til baby is home. Yup, that's the plan.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate it.
