Nerves + Chicago + Love = ?!

Work has been really suckin' the "umph" outta me lately. My boss (the glue that holds it all together) is going on maternity leave next week.  So, I've been doing tons of "ahead of time" work for things.  Plus, the whole “thing” you know, of having a boat load of new responsibility? It’s just weighing heavily in my mind.  It's a period of growth for me, which is so exciting but at the same time nerve racking!  I’m going through a “WHAT IF SCREW IT ALL UP?!” phase.  But I won’t screw it all up…I’m just being silly and paranoid. RIGHT?!
 
...Chicago is soon!  We leave on my birthday!  The 27th!  I'm nervous about that too, because it will be my first time faraway from home, and this length of time!  3 nights!  AH! 

But I’d like to wrap this up with a little love note to Gary.

"awwwwwwwww" *gag* *choke* *gasp* *gag*

Seriously, shut up guys I'm professing my love...

*ahem*

Gary, 
I thought of this song tonight…then it made me think about us.  I love you and I’m here…by your side…

"Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now"

Looking in your eyes, I see a paradise.
This world that I found is too good to be true.
Standing here beside you, I want so much to give you this love in my heart that im feeling for you
Let them say we're crazy.
I don't care about that.
Put your hand in my hand, baby, don't ever look back.
Let the world around us just fall apart.
Maybe we can make it if we're heart to heart.

And we can build this thing together, stand in stone forever, nothing's gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers we'll still have eachother.
Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us now.

I'm so glad I found you, I'm not gonna lose you, whatever it takes to stay here with you.
Take it too the good times, see it through the bad times.
Whatever it takes is what I'm gonna do.
Let them say we're crazy.
What do they know?
Put your arms around me, baby, don't ever let go.
Let the world around us just fall apart.
Baby, we can make it if we're heart to heart.

Oh, all that I need is you.
All that I ever need.
All that I want to do is hold you forever, forever and ever.

And we can build this thing together, stand in stone forever, nothing's gonna stop us now.
And if this world runs out of lovers we'll still have eachother.
Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us now.

*snort* *jab*

Sorry, I wanted to comment here, but the high sugar content of this post triggered my latent diabetes.

Thanks a lot, ass hat.

Ash: Glad I could help out!
;-P

Karen: thanks hunny! I really do actually have to kick butt!

awww that's so cute! no excuse me while i vomit up my own spleen... :P

i don't see how any job-related responsibility could be greater than that of having your own living, breathing baby boy relying on you for his very survival and protection against giant blood-sucking bats! i'm sure you'll do great :)

Yes...silly and paranoid. You'll be fine.

Question: What to do when you 'screw up'?
Answer: 'Screw down'.

Screws go in two directions and if you are lucky enough to have a re-chargeable screw driver you know that you can make it go in either direction with the push of a button. The phrase "What goes up must come down." applies to gravity but is also applicable to the up and down motion of 'screws'. A 'loose screw' only needs tightening. & a 'screw-up' only need the tightening effect of the driving thing to make it fixed. Anyway, you can say you have no confidence but we know different from the new 'whammo/blasto' rainbow banner you put on the top of your page - or as you put it, ". . .aww yeah baby" - (though that it is not very good grammatical language)
