SO STRESSED

Ugh, this move is killing me.

Okay, moving sucks to begin with. Trying to figure out which kitchen/bathroom items can't be packed til the last minute and which ones are nonessential enough to be taped into a box...running out of boxes...running out of space for the boxes you do have. It's miserable! Add to that the fact that Jordan and I are both working through the whole process, opposite shifts of each other (but team work and joint decision-making are overrated, right...?). And the fact that we don't have 5-7 able bodied family members helping us, as we were lucky enough to have the last few times we moved. My parents are the only ones who can help this year (though Carissa has volunteered her dear husband to help, as well).

So...feeling a bit stressed. Not really sure how it's all going to get done. To keep the panic attacks at bay, I just keep thinking of Monday. By Monday, we'll be completely moved in to our new place...hanging pictures and clocks on our walls, using OUR VERY OWN WASHER AND DRYER, enjoying the deck, maybe baking something in the big beautiful kitchen. Monday is my day off, and our two year wedding anniversary. It will be a lovely lovely day.

I should be getting to bed, really. I have a lot to do in the morning/early afternoon before work. But I am thinking way too hard and fast to fall asleep. So...survey?

How much does the last person you talked to mean to you? He's my best friend, life partner, soul mate, etc...so I'd say he means quite a lot. As much as a person can mean to someone, really.
Do you have plans for tomorrow? Yes, very unpleasant plans.
What's the last movie you saw? Shawshank Redemption.
Have you heard of Google Plus? Yeah. Haven't really looked into it, though.
Can you take a joke? Yeah, usually.
Do you look okay? In general, yeah. At the moment, ehh.
What's something big that you're looking forward to? Getting into graduate school...having babies...buying a house. Fun grown up stuff like that.
Do you accept all of your friend requests on Facebook? No, only people I actually know.
What do you want right now? For it to be Monday.
Are you dramatic? Not really.
Ever experienced tornado or a hurricane? Tornado, yes.
Are you feeling lonely? Not really.
When do you start school? Hopefully next fall...but who knows.
Do you fight back? Depends on the situation.
Is it possible to miss someone so much that it hurts? Of course.
What do you have pierced? My ears.
If you could change your natural hair color, would you & what color? Some pretty shade of red or strawberry blonde might be nice...
Even though cigarettes are bad for you, do you smoke them anyways? No.
What happened last night? I went to work.
Do thunder & storms scare you? No.
Do you find it annoying when others fake being 'high' or 'drunk'? I don't know anyone who fakes being high or drunk...that just seems dumb. So yeah, it would probably annoy me.
What's the last video game you played? Terraria
Are you the kind of person who over-thinks everything? Yeah, generally.
Google, Bing, or Yahoo? Google.
When were you the happiest in your life? I don't think that's the sort of thing you can reasonably measure. Or at least I can't.
Have you ever played in the snow? Yeah.
Do you tend to take things too far? No, don't think so.
Did someone say 'Goodnight' to you last night? Yeah.
