Just some thoughts...

I hate being out of work... temporary layoff or no...
I start feeling useless, and it gets me down. When I feel like that, I don't feel like attacking the house with the act of cleaning. It gets on Colleen's nerves, granted. Hell, I know that things need to be done. I keep saying that I'm going to work on it, but in the end, I do very little towards the goal. What I need is a kick in the pants at times.
I'll work on the house during the day (taking a few breaks for food, email and LJ perusal, and a breather here and there), and then I can work on my Fantasy Hero campaign at night.

I'm seeing the eye doctor this afternoon. just a checkup on the irits.
Colleen's seeing a doctor at Fallon Urgent Care (*snort*). Her ears have started to hurt, and she's headachy, nauseous, and running a mild temperature. I say ear infection, and I'll bet that she'll be on antibiotics before the night's out.

Speaking of Colleen, one of her major stresses is over and done with -- mounds of work to grade and report cards. She got them done last night. Now, she's got parent conferences tonight and tomorrow.

Wish I had better news, but at least something's sort of going on...

More later as news warrants...

Okay, C and I have discussed this in the past, especially since a friend of her family has a similar position with the government, and he could have missed the wedding by being deployed to the sandbox. Our general consensus was a great big NOT!
While I wouldn't mind being overseas and out of the country for a little while, I don't think I could handle being away for extended periods of time, especially since I'm a newlywed, and I don't relish the idea of being stuck somewhere and I can't speak the language... or worse yet, can't eat the food.
If I wanted to be deployed somewhere, I'd have joined the Navy long ago. I'd do it now, but I'd probably end up 4F with my medical conditions.
