I know I?ve been inundating this blog with images from someecards.com lately, but I can?t help it. Too many times they know exactly what I want to say.

I got to see Twilight on Saturday night, due to Elizabeth off with her cousin W. and when we went to go see Quantum of Solace to make BabyDaddy happy, it was sold out.* I liked it, but damn, it made me feel old. Let me preface this by saying I?ve read all the books?. and other than the occasional itch to slap the crap out of Bella due to being a teenage girl and

Elizabeth?s packing a bag of stuff to keep her entertained in line, and I?ve taken the day off. Happy Election Day!

My head?s a mess this week? simple things that should be muscle-memory by know have completely escaped me. Work has been killing me, even with this being really the first full week of shortened hours (35hr/wk for the rest of the year to make up for all the overtime that we?ve all had to pull for insane project schedules).

In fact, this morning he was down at MEPS getting his ?old-man? physical (his words, not mine) to see if he can get an age waiver to get in. What?s going through his blasted mind, I can hear some of y?all say

While I survived, I?m still recovering from sleep deprivation. Remind me to never sign on for being on two different track staffs again. The lack of sleep is killing me.

While posts have been slim around here anyways, they just might be missing this long weekend as well, since I?m packing up the car and heading to Dragoncon. Wish me luck that I can keep my balloon hand down a bit, since I?ve already agreed to far too many projects this weekend.

First Day of First Grade, originally uploaded by amber_h. This was the cheesy grin BabyDaddy received while getting Elizabeth to pose for her first day of school this year. She was far too excited to get in the car and get to the school to give more than one smile for the camera? which is interesting considering how much of a ham my child is.
