Oh good lord, has it really been this long since I updated?

I don’t know if anything’s really happened, or if I"m just kind of "meh" again.
 
Well, I do know that some things happened — I ended up with strep throat last week.  That wasn’t fun at all.  Seriously.  I went to the bazaar two weekends ago… it wasn’t the right place for me to sell my jewelry at.  At the end of Saturday, my throat started feeling bad and I didn’t get any real sleep.  Sunday I just… I couldn’t go to the bazaar, even though I wanted to.  I went long enough to get my stuff packed up, apologize, and go back home to rest.  I didn’t really sleep much, not for long, my throat kept waking me up every hour or so… and I couldn’t get back to sleep either for much of it.  So I was up durin the night.  I think that’s when the boyfriend started being up all night.  Monday I went to work  and dragged ass all day.  I called my doc and they said they could get me in Tuesday evening.  So I had another sleepless night and by Tuesday I was half crazed.  I kind of dozed / worked my way through work and when I got to the doc she said I had strep throat and gave me two days off and 10 days worth of meds.  Wheeee. 
 
 
Last Wednesday and Thursday were pretty good, the meds kicked in quickly and I was almost able to sleep normally… still got up with a dry and sticky throat and was up quite a few times durin the night… but I got to doze on and off all day.  I went back to work Friday to find that I was the only auditor in for the day.  I played catch up as well as I could and then it was the weekend.
 
 
This past week has been okay; I’ve been feeling really "meh" though.  Haven’t wanted to do anything when I got home and having to fight to stay on task while at work… although, I haven’t had to fight too much.  T’s gone, she found a better job, closer to home and is grateful to be out of the drama… not that I blame her at all; I put in an app for another place nearby and I hope I get it. ::crosses her fingers:: M’s out for a while too, her father passed on so I’m feeling the squeeze – but not too badly, luckily. 
 
 
I need to figure out what I’m going to do this weekend… aside from the house cleaning I’ve been meaning to and putting off ,and the taxes and business stuff. ::le sigh:: Today when I get home, I’m going to look up jewelry holders and the like.  See if I can’t get some for a good price for the next round of faires…. speaking of which – I needa get my crap together for Art’s Walk.  And for the next few places I wanna go for workins and stuffs. I really need to get my ass together, really.  It’s just so hard at times. 
 
 
Hmm… what else happened?  I went out and got my nails done with Mom and Maili – that was a lot of fun… we talked and just relaxed.  It feels weird to have my nails done but it’s also nice.  Even if it does mean that I’m turning into a girl.
 
 
The boyfriend and I are doing better.  A lot better, actually.  A lot of it has to do with my being sick and seeing how much he worries and dotes.  I’m still having to remind myself that we both say "I love you" in completely different ways.  I’m really big into physical touch and that kind of bonding… he’s not so much into that, and makes light of any serious emotional bonding.  But he tells me he loves me by remembering little things that I like.  It’s still a pain in the ass because I don’t feel like I’m creating the kind of bond that means I can tell him anything on my mind, but it’s getting better, which is good… it’s less stressful.
 
 
Okay, time to scamper off.  I will do my best to post tonight or tomorrow.  I needa get some pictures.
