Tomorrow, at the butt crack of dawn, I'm flying to Mexico (if all goes well) or LA (if only some goes well) or nowhere (if nothing goes well). Earlier today, I thought I might cancel this trip, but now that I have a job, somehow it feels like it's all come together. And it'll be fun!

So, in the course of today, I've gone from angsting about moving to Portland to angsting about whether the local job is a good idea to being settled on the local job. I've also gone from planning to go to Mexico to planning not to go to Mexico to planning again to go to Mexico.

Now, I'm feeling a little dizzy.

In other wild turnabout news, I've decided I want kids. Twins. Or maybe triplets.

Er, wait, no, that's not right. It's all very confusing.

I fed Aileen hot chocolate and she called me names for never having given it to her before this. It's a good thing I'm going to Mexico so I can get more :>
