Friday Fill-In #81

Those of you with multiple blogs or private blogs...if you could add your link to the Fill-Ins, that would be GREAT! All questions this week are courtesy of Sherry; thank you, girl!

1. If I could be a fly on the wall I would listen in on meetings at the Oval Office in the White House in order to get an answer to this question: "What the heck are you thinking?"

2. Jealousy is a green eyed monster who can sometimes be friendly and other times deadly.

3. When I see a shooting star my wish would be that I have a good and happy life with my Partner to-be and that all the wedding planning goes smoothly.

4. I'd rather be happy than sad any day!

5. Certain songs when I hear them make me wanna shake my booty.

6. If time were in a bottle I would figure out how to release small parts for those moments when I need a little extra time.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to visiting with Beth, tomorrow my plans include sightseeing with Corrie, Joe, and Beth and Sunday, I want to swim!

So soon...

The wedding planning has barely begun and I have already got into a spat with my mother.  I called my dad this morning to ask him for help. He said, "It has only be 12 hours; how can you already be fighting?"  As an added bonus, I got into a fight with my dad tonight.  N and I had gone out to dinner and when we came back to my parent's place, my father asked me where we had eaten.  I nudged N to not tell him and this drove him crazy!

The reason I did not want him to know where we ate is because I did not feel like answering his questions about what I ate specifically.  Afterwards, he told me that I was rude and had a crooked mind.  Apparently, I had a guilty conscious because I must have eaten something I should not have; I said that I was tired of constantly having to report my food choices.  This pissed him off more. 

Ugh. I cannot believe that I was excited to start wedding planning. Hopefully, things will get better.

Another Rocking Defense

The entire time I have known my Partner to-be he has been working towards completing his dissertation.  It seemed to always be looming in the distance, a far away goal that was always just beyond reach. This summer, our wedding planning had been put on the shelf until the dissertation was finished.  After what seemed like forever and a day, his defense took place this morning.  Here is the e-mail I got a little while after it was finished:

I passed fully.  I need to take care of some busy-work now, but we can
talk later.

Thanks for the support.  I love you.

I cannot believe that this phase of his life is finished. It's hard to imagine life post-dissertation; I am certainly looking forward to seeing what it is like!
