Seeing the Future

by Megan M. on January 27, 2010

I made three posts earlier this month at Social Work prn’s blog that are pertinent here — and they’re best read in order. Since this is my birthday week I figure it’s reasonable for me to have an easy-blog day or two. ;}

Seeing the Future: Engagement
I spent the last three weeks working my ass off — yes, I worked through Christmas. No, I didn’t pause for New Year’s Eve.

Even just since these posts, things are moving forward at an absolutely ridiculous rate. The uncertainty of what the next several weeks will look like is the most thrilling sensation.

The future is always here, really.

    Most glittery and glowing birthday wishes to you, madame! (I notice your “birthday week” designation—but of course! How can a single day encompass all your natal thoughts? Your hair alone is worth several days.) Keep the candles lit.
