migraines, march, marriage & massachusetts

buongiorno amici...

it's currently 2:38 in the morning, and i do plan on attending class when the sun comes up. yet, here i sit, greatly affected by the caffeine in the three excedrin that i had to take to get rid of my second migraine of the weekend. i never knew i was prone to migraines. i got alot of headaches in the fall, but my doctor and i decided that was caused by spending plenty of quality time with first-graders and not enough quality time with my bed. but this weekend, i had two bouts with the ailment. yesterday wasn't too bad, but tonight, i couldn't move. i managed to drag myself to my room, put a mask over my eyes and fall onto my bed. i layed there stationary for hours, waiting for the pain to go away so i could write a paper on my inductive study of the book of esther (haman really was a tool, wasn't he??). well, three hours and two excedrin later, i was able to start the paper. it's done now, but i am since i never drink soda or coffee, i am WAY affected by caffeine and so i'm up for awile. i feel like right now you are REALLY bored, because this was a dumb story. i'll move on.

it's the end of march...thank goodness. the end of march means that may 5 (my ever-elusive graduation date) is drawing closer and closer. for those of you who might be tempted to tell me: "you finally did it" or "it's about time" or "it took you long enough" or similar, here's a hint: please keep it to yourself. i know that people who graduate from college 7 years following their high school graduation usually have alot more letters after their name. i also know that people who have been saying these kind of things to me probably don't read this petty little blog.

may also brings the marriage of my brother and the lovely erin. i'm awfully excited to have a sister. i'm excited about their tiny little ceremony, too. i've been getting to know my extended family better at weddings in the past few years. it used to be that we only saw each other at funerals. this is better.

my plans for after graduation most likely involve the east coast. i have signed with a nanny agency in boston, and it is their job to place me with a family that meets my specifications. i (and my mother) feel much more at ease about picking up and moving to the east coast, now that i am with this agency. they have assured me that they have never found one of their nannies floating in the hudson, or any other river! so that's good. i will hopefully find out this week which family i will work for; the where and the when as well.

i feel like this is such a boring post. i don't feel clever at 3 o'clock in the morning. i'm sorry friends. don't quit reading my blog. please. ok, thanks.

buona notte amici

Well it wasn't boring for me. That is neat about the nanny agency. I didn't know those were for real GRIN! Congrats on your graduation!

a bona fide nanny! (not like you haven't been such in the last few years, but- kewl! - anyway.) and in BOSTON- that is envy-inducing! now i have extra motivation to visit there. *sigh* -if i ever get a vacation again.
ah man :( you're graduating too soon! i was wanting you to still be there in august, so i could stay with you if i decided to go to a conference at GRACE then. wouldn't you rather just stay in school? *l* i know- i'm a selfish mooch.
glad you're blogging again. :)

Love the alliterating title. :-) I have always thought New England would be the coolest place to live - especially in the fall. Good luck with your last six (?) weeks of school; it's always so hard to concentrate right at the end. And I hope the headaches clear up. I can see how being around screaming kids that many hours a day could have that effect . . . it's all I can do to handle three sometimes. You are a brave woman!
