It snowed last night

My child:

"If I were to ever write Iron Man fan fiction it would start with Tony saying, "I'm sorry, I can't hear you over how awesome I am." He might say other stuff - but he'd have to be buddies with Pyrrhon from Kid Icarus Uprising."

About to take final exam for American History.

Moderately nervous.

(edited to add)

I shouldn't have been worried - I got a 98.4%

I seem to be very good at not updating. Not my intention.

Let's see. Didn't get the job I interviewed for. Which... isn't a bad thing. My current supervisor adores me and I am her golden child. These are good things in corporate America. I have been with the company for almost 5 years now. Moderately baffling.

I lost a bunch of weight last year. This year so far it's trying to come back. Back to the gym now that the burden of overtime has been lifted. I can work from 6:00 to 2:30 which in theory leaves me plenty of time to get to the gym, put in a good 45 minute work out and get home in time to make dinner. On the nights the husband doesn't cook.

Have to run to the store... we've just been warned a snow storm is headed our way. Yay?

Got a little overwhelmed by things, work, school, family etc.

Will probably resurface at the end of the month.

Four thirty comes way too quickly some mornings, but I knew I had missed this kind of update format when I can't actually recall the details of my shower because I was busy mentally composing an update. *sigh*

Since I regularly have to get up at 4:30 in order to be at work at six, it's not unknown, but now I've spent the entire time my coffee took to brew arguing with my work intranet site. You'd think we'd have a more functional thing considering how many work at home people we have.

Not too much has changed since I dropped off the face of livejournal. My kid became a teenager (and in fact in just over three months becomes eligible to get her learner's permit), I've dropped 30+ pounds, I got a new laptop, I already mentioned back to school... I guess I really am a relatively normal suburban housewife. The husband and I are settled nicely at 17.5 years of marriage and wondering how we're going to survive the remainder of the teenage years.

I need to decorate here and make icons (I missed doing that too) and see if I can find anyone else that I definitely want to follow and am not too concerned if they don't follow me :-) but I think I like it here and I've clearly missed this kind of forum.
