Just getting it out there

Good lord,seriously? It’s been a WEEK since I wrote? Wow.

Daycare is going fine, Ingrid’s there now and I’m in the coffeeshop on campus. I’m ridiculously pleased to have realized they rezoned an entire lot for visitors, because my parking pass expired in August, and there used to be about 6 visitor spaces total, on campus, (or so it seemed) and they were perpetually occupied and located in the worst spots. The visitor lot is the most central to campus, which is such a good move — right on the Mall, and just steps from the library, the union, the ed building, so yay for no tickets and good parking!

Thanksgiving was fine — ate at my SILs, Ingrid napped in the wrap (new pics in the Nov album, btw) and aside from my SIL giving her a fingerful of coolwhip (SHUDDER) things were fine. It was nice and lowkey, which is always good.

I sent my resume in and haven’t heard, but to cover all my bases, I alsosent a deposit to the new daycare center by our house, just in case. And I DIDN’T get permanent p/t at my night job, which is really throwing me off — apparently they went by hire date, and there were seasonals from last year that wanted a regular position, too, so that leaves me out… which, sucks, because that was my Plan B. SO I need a Plan A, fast. FUCKING A. Anyway. More vibes to the library world,eh?

I jsut dropped Ingrid off, and came to the coffee shop to work, but ended up talking for over an hour to a classmate from last semester whose wife delivered 3 weeks after I did, so it was a lot of student/working/parent kvetching, which was nice, since in general the campus is overrun with undergrads who don’t get It, not at all. Of course, we both lost work time in our discussion of poop, daycare, and breastfeeding, but oh well… it was good. And I have a dentist appt at noon, si I’m going to have to leave in a few minutes ANYWAY, drive back to home, have the appt, drive BACK to campus and work then. … I guess. UGH.

So, brief catchup, more later…

  1. I’m commenting on the pics, actually: I keep forgetting to say how RIDICULOUSLY cute Ingrid is. Those lashes! They look like fakes, all long and pointed. That hysterical grin! Those *eyes*! Are her eyes green? She is one super cutey. I always end up showing Ben the pictures; our favorite was the one where she was bundled up and just her nose was showing. You could sell that one as stock photography!
