Ups and downs...
Lots of ups and downs. Today marked six years on the job with $dayjob. Well, technically yesterday did, but people are enamoured with this particular off-by-one error, so I'll roll with it. Still missing Suzie a lot. I was looking forward to having her at the wedding when R and I get married, but I guess it wasn't meant to be. Fireworks are currently pissing me off beyond belief -- why is it okay for cretins to run about with explosives and generally be irresponsible with them? Police here in North Vancouver don't tend to do a lot of enforcement, but that's par for the course here for just about everything. Fun chats in IRC tonight, but I have stuck my foot in my mouth more times than I care to admit. Today just isn't a people day, I guess...

Suzie was my stepmother who died recently. Always a fan of a celebration, and was among the hardest pushers for R and I to move the wedding date up. :) The close friend where things didn't end up compatible with R and myself would actually be Leslie, who I'd known for over 15 years previously. It sounds like we've got a lot in common!

OMG kj, I'm so sorry. =( *offers hugs*
And said close friend here was named Robynne, so...yet another weird overlap. O_o

Yeah, that is a strange overlap. Not too many Robynnes about. Good thing they're not one and the same, though! ;)
