Lagging Behind

Sorry for the lack of posts - Gabe I will do my best to keep you entertained at work, also you haven't commented on my Chuck Norris Fact of the Day. GEEZ. Scroll down and look on the right!

Anyway, I have been keeping busy here and things are going well. Michael called me Wednesday to tell me they were flying out, but they did have a layover in Maine so he would call. After he landed in Maine, we knew that would be the last we talked for awhile, so we said our goodbyes around 7, and I was reduced to waiting patiently for his call. Surprisingly at 9:30, I receive a text message - I never knew you could do that on planes. Needless to say, you can't and they were still sitting on the runway. Turns out the radar was broken? so they were able to stay in a hotel for the night. They left late this morning, and I just heard from him from Europe somewhere. I won't say because a family already ratted out to the newspaper they had a delay in Maine, and that caused a problem! They will be there for about two hours or so and then off to another destination! It is so crazy to me to think he is in another COUNTRY halfway around the world. It's just bizarre.

The lack of blogging hasn't been just because I am an overachiever and never stop to slow down, but because our internet problem has resurfaced! I took the computer up to the store today, and of course it worked fine! But they did say the part I needed was around $800 - $900 to replace since it was no longer under warranty. So as much as it hurt, Michael convinced me to buy a new laptop, because it's almost just as much! It hurt my heart to spend that much. I don't think I am going to buy anything for weeks. Of course, I get home, plug the computer BACK in and it works! Oh well, what are you going to do? Michael said it was just going to go out again, and I can't bear that thought of not having ANY contact with him, or not being able to see him, so I broke down. I guess love is priceless!!!!

I saw the Chuck Norris Fact of the Day...I'll have to look back in the Chuck Norris book and send you some good ones. Anyway, I mounted our TV on the wall a few days ago but I have to run the cables through the wall now. It's kinda like your computer stuff one thing leads to another and another. You know it's almost time to get a christmas tree. You should get one because nothing makes you feel better than seeing a sparkling christmas tree whenever you come home.

It's ironic that your post is entitled "lagging behind" since the word lag means lag (slang) is a term used where the computer freezes and than continues some time later when an action is used...so either you are really smart and the title fits perfectly with the content of your post or just good like that. Either way I still luv ya.
