I just read Aunt Mildred’s obit again. I really wish I could have been to the funeral. It was in February, so this isn’t new news. I don’t know for sure what made me read it. Xavier has a smile like my grandmother. Aunt Mildred was her sister. They look alike and so on. Maybe that was the lead. Bah. I need to get to the reunion this summer.

So uh yeah. Every day, I get really excited to play when I see Xavier’s eyelids get heavy. But now, I have even more reason to play. My friend Krystyn made a char/toon for my server. Woo hoo! I’m in the happy.

I’m trying people. Really, I am.

As I sit and type, Xavier is watching First Signs and bouncing happily. His smile comes and goes at his favorite parts. When he doesn’t love a scen, he spins the toys on his bouncer and listens for a familiar scene he does like. It’s wonderful. I love that he notices audio cues. I love knowing he has preferrences for something other than food. It’s great!

Yesterday was technically my first mama’s day. El Dia de Madre. Yay. Erik, I mean Xavier, got me a digital photo frame. It’s a big ‘un, too. It makes me happy. The thing has tons of features and I can watch videos on it or add music. I just love the thing.

I just posted my RPGLife play-by-post update. I like how the storyline is progressing. Crippled Planet is fun to play despite being slow. I can’t complain too much. At least it’s good writing practice. I’m not in total control which is challenging– which is good.

Speaking of writing, I got an A on my final paper and a B in the class overall. English Composition is the class I’m talking about. I should have said that first. My next courses, Psych and Japanese, start next week. I take Psych online, but go to campus for the Japanese class. So far there are only 13 other people registered. Hopefully it doesn’t get canceled at the last minute. The professor hasn’t responded to my effin email, nor has she sent the syllabus. I’m concerned. I’ve been looking forward to this class for months.  Wish me luck.

And that’s all for now. I will try to update at least every other day. It’s a frivolous personal goal I suppose.
