| Tonight was the first night that Jack and I spent apart since we were married on the 27th... He had to work and works third shift. Im lonely.
*sigh*
If I am lonely now, how will I be when he leaves for boot camp in February?!!

| In the last month or so, things have been odd. Busy and then lulled over and over again. I sent out the first batch of wedding invitations (after accidentally printing 100 of them with a typo and having to start over). I have about 60 more to do, but I don't have to send those ones out, they are for my mom to deal with. She won't give me addresses soon enough, so she said just to give her a bunch of unaddressed ones and she'd handle it. *shrug* The ball is in her court, so to speak.
Tonight was employee appreciation night at the Hallmark. We got 40% off our purchases, so I bought a bunch of things. Plus, I got a $20 gift certificate for part of a sales bonus, so that helped, too. In the end, I got over $100 worth of things for $30.17. I feel bad spending money because I am poor, but then again, most of the things I got are Christmas gifts, so I would have spent the money anyway in the long run. Jack says that as long as I wasn't spending the money on myself, it is alright not to feel guilty. *sigh* I hate being poor.
The other night, Amanda, David, another girl, and I went to Dr. Grins comedy club. I spent $10 for the ticket and it was really enjoyable. The comediens were fun, and it was nice to spend time with my friends who I hardly see anymore. After the comedy show, we went to a dance club and danced it up, so to speak. My legs are sore! Again, it was really fun. On the ride home, I made an incident and sort of ruinned the mood, but things were fun and great otherwise. I am really glad that I went.
Jack was mad at me tonite because work asked me to stay late and I didn't call to tell him. And then after my shift I did the shopping and stuff for employee appreciation, so I ended up getting home around 730p instead of 6ish. He has since called and apologized for being a grump-butt. I mean, I know he gets worried, but I can't really tell my boss that even though I need the hours and money, hold on while I call my husband for permission. Meh. At least Jack and I get over these sorts of things. Understanding is a good trait.
Well,. its late. I should be sleeping. Another full day of work tomorrow. Ciao!

| It has been over a month and almost nothing for the wedding is planned.... We had a date and a hall and now we have neither. After we picked January 7th, we found out that the hall we'd been scoping doesn't rent for Sundays and that Jack's family from the otherside of the state would prefer it be on a Saturday. And the hall that we were looking at already has someone renting it for the 6th. So, I don't know.
I put my mom in charge of invitations... and she picked out GREY card stock for my blue/lavendar/white invitation (I designed it myself). I am not too keen on the grey, but I did tell her she could be in charge of that part on account of the fact that she really needed something to do. I am trying not to worry about it too much, no use in that. We finally do know, however, that Jack ships to boot camp on February 15th, so at least we have something planned. Sure, we don't know where we are going to be living after we get married, or how I am going to get out of my lease at the current place (they won't let him stay here). *sigh*
Odd thing is, I am not really stressed about it. I know in the back of mind the stress waits to take over, but right now I am pretty damn calm.
