Officially Blissfully Unemployed!

Yesterday was my last day at work. I’ll miss my co-workers but I’m glad to have all the time in the world to focus on my home and my family. Chances are good that I’ll probably take a part time job in the future just to have more flexibility in the budget, but for now I’m going to enjoy every minute of my time as a Domestic Engineer. Which reminds me… I ought to update our biographies. They’re a little out of date.

In case you didn’t already know…

we’re officially crazy.
Matt was supposed to have to go to West Virginia on June 26, so I made my last day at work June 22 so that we could move before he had to leave. That takes a week off of our original plan, but we thought it was still do-able. Then the floors took too long to dry and now Matt might have to go to West Virginia on June 20 instead. We were having some trouble finding moving help, too, but that’s getting better.
I just have to figure out how to get this place packed between now & next Sunday. I might even have to break down & go to the liquor store to ask for boxes.

I should be sleeping

but I’m not because the cat decided to be cute & crawl into my lap. I hate to disturb him.
In other Ratzi news, we have new pictures! They should be posted in the next few days. Most notably, there are pictures of the Cat in the CrockPot.

Two Years, Huh?

That’s pretty cool.

Thesis is switching gears to a graduation paper. That should go well after my first big project startup for work is finished (starts sometime in mid-june, goes until sometime). Yum.

I also don’t have a white picket fence, but the house is in existence, so theoretically this is possible. Speaking of theoretical. We have fifty theoretical babies. We train them in our imaginarium where they are learning the Jedi arts. Pretty soon Mr. Palpatine is gonna know not to mess with us.

Occasionally, I am filled with rich chocolatey goo. That’s not quite the same as being rich, unless you eat me during one of those times. But please do not eat me. That would make me unhappy.

Not sure how I’ve helped the poor. I’m a big slacker. Though more money has gone to charitable causes this year. Theoretically I may have indirectly helped the poor. Which would be nice.

I have invented time travel. Sort of. See, my job had a long commute, so while travelling to and from work, I was tending to go faster throughout the day then most people. Therefore, thanks to time-dilation, I was getting slowly younger than most of the people I know. Pretty soon I should be able to harness this power to fight crime, where I can form my alter-ego: time man! (Bitten by a radioactive time, with all the powers of a time).

Goals for next Marriage Year
1. Finish Master’s Degree.
2. Develop Mutant Powers; Form an Elite World-Saving Team
3. Help the poor
4. Learn how to construct stairs
5. Produce offspring, thus ensuring I will not have to mow the lawn forever
