guess what i've been doing for the past three hours?? soothing a wailing child to sleep. Oz is getting teeth #s 7 & 8 with a vengeance!! the poor little guy was so worked up he kept vomiting ... in the end i dunked my finger in my sister's glass of wine and rubbed that on his gums (just a drop) - 10 minutes later he was asleep (i know there are mixed opinions on that practice, but most of our parents did it to us, and we turned out fine ... debatably fine ... ) anyhoo, he's snoring like a kitten now

tomorrow my sister moves out, and emma with her. i'll miss them both so much ... i know i can visit, but everyone always says that, but it never ends up happening, especially with my move to buttfucknowhere next month. i don't want to be that person, that person who says "oh we have to see more of eachother" but never finds the time. but by the same token, where will i ever find the time?

in better news, my husband got the job at the hospital. he's been trying to get it for half a year or more and now he finally has it. it's close to where his schooling will be, but on the polar opposite side of the city from where we'll be living ... he'll be getting up at 6 am every day to get to work, and he's not a morning person. i've been really stressed about our relationship lately, and i feel like i can't even talk to him about it because he needs my support during this time of change in his life.
