Day 13: It's all Relative
Time needs to slow the hell down. I can’t catch up. It makes my brain hurt and I get clumsy and cranky. I forget to hear my babies when they tell me their stories and I sweat the small stuff. I don’t do anything well.
So, aren’t you glad I’m posting today?
I wanted to let you in on my big news…although back in the comments section a few days ago…JJ certainly threatened to let the cat out of the bag. I AM going to Korea to retrieve my Jen. Enough with the cigs and the squid and the gay arms and the dongs and the drunken emails. [Korea sounds fun, but it ain’t no Missouri….]
No really. I realized that “big news” is sort of relative, or maybe subjective. (?) This realized after a phone call from a friend wondering what my big news is…
A few minutes after I posted yesterday…
“Hey! So what’s your big news?”
“Well hi, nosey one, I thought you were calling to say hello!?”
“I DID, now what’s the news?”
“I took a new job!”
[pause]
“Oh.”
[pause]
“Great! I thought maybe you were engaged or something exciting like that.”
Good Lord.

Could you elaborate a bit? I know it's not as exciting as getting engaged or something. But details, details!
And more importantly, can you still blog/E-mail from this new job?
Oh, and P.S., I was right! I knew it!
Congrats, Erin! I'm glad you decided to share with the class.
Keep us posted...
Are you sure your not going to Korea?
