Speechless (for once)

So, I received an email this morning from Doug - it's always nice to get one from him, since he rarely replies. I used to send him emails every couple of days, but it seemed like they would never get read, or at least he was never replying, so I stopped sending them. It has been a while since I wrote him one, so I thought maybe I would send him one. Only I found myself not being able to write a darn thing.

I guess my life is just boring enough that I have nothing to say to him anymore that is of any value. He knows everything already, and I don't feel like boring him with the mundane details of my work life again and again. And that's so sad, because I used to be able to write long emails to him about all kinds of things, and nothing, and it was so much fun for me. This is how my whole life has felt lately. Just kind of stagnant and boring. Nothing particularly interesting or exciting happening.

Morgan and I had a bump in the road on being roommates. Her current roommate decided she didn't want to leave. Ugh. So we are trying to find someone to take Morgan's place in the lease, and then we will find somewhere else to live. So I am just praying that will work out - for my own sanity.

Meanwhile, I'm still unpacking all my stuff. We finally got the closets done, and I have the majority of my clothes hung up. Except I had to give away almost half of my clothes for them to fit in the teeny weeny space. The den is almost done, but I feel like as soon as I get it done, it will be time to pack it all back up again. Oh well.

I think I'm just tired and need a break. Doug's birthday is coming up, and I'm taking him on a surprise trip that I won't even write here about, because I know that somehow he will figure it out! I'm trying to save up the money to get him something good too, but my luck hasn't been too good with that lately. Let's just say that Christmas is going to be kind of weak for me this year. There will probably be lots of baking involved instead of gift buying. Which reminds me that it's my job to figure out what to get the boss for Christmas. What do you get a man who has everything?

Don't really want to think about Christmas this early. Just let me get through Doug's birthday and mandate graduation. Plus, Thanksgiving is in between.

Man, time is flying by.
