2011


I've always been superstitious of more than one 1 gathered...so 2011 becomes starts out with me being terrified of the year, awesome way to start. But since things can go horribly wrong, they've been going amazing. Besides being busy and therefore drowning my vegetable garden. But I'm the type of black thumb gardener anyway, give me a tree to chop down/ weeds to pull up/ things to trim....
I got a new job at a small aquarium, which is amazing. I used to volunteer at a big aquarium which was nice, but you get lost in the enormity of the place and people. Not to mention the guests lose that personal feel of being able to follow someone around and ask questions on a personal level (And me tracking down someone to tell them that nurse sharks live for about 25 years) A place where people from Canada come down every year with their kids and know our fish by name. Well those that have names, it is big enough to have plenty of unnamed fish! So while I'm happily exhausted, I'm still running in a million directions at once.
I also discovered a family deficiency of B vitamins and a little multi-B made me 10 times happier, not to mention discovering my theoretically milk allergy is a lactose intolerance. Which is a lot better than an allergy! Though that was probably the funniest conversation with the allergist: "Well there are lots of possible common allergens, do you react to milk?" I don't like milk and my brother was allergic, I didn't have it for a couple of years. "Wheat?" I'm on a wheat-free diet since I live with a celiac. "Why?" *Stare* Because it's better for her and simpler "Oh, fish?" I don't like fish. "Eggs?" I don't like eggs much "Peanuts or nuts?" I LOVE THOSE! They are fine.
And while it may seem to him like I avoid everything, some things are for a definite reason...I've avoided many of those things for years, though cheese is my killer.
With two jobs, school, my new hubby stressed out by his work and school, and robots things are definately 20 hour days of activity. So I'm stopping being lazy soon to put my chaos back in order.
And I bought a camera cord to talk with my retarded phone:
This is me being the event coordinator at the school for a robot fight, with a poor girl whose teacher requires photographic evidence that they attended an extra credit event! But thank you kindly for coming and watching us beat up the little robots :)
