Late because I had a little bit of a stress breakdown last night.
I always get thrown off when I take on a new responsibility (especially one as important as a new family). I start thinking I can’t cut it, I can’t balance everything and still be successful. Eventually this will all melt away, and I’ll find the harmony in having lots of things to do. I’m just hoping it’s sooner rather than later.
Regardless, I’m just going to focus on each day as it comes. That usually gets me through my anxieties. 
Also, that weird side-lip-wiggle thing I’m doing is my stress face, I’m not sure why, but it is what it is.

The interview went well, I’ve been asked to join the team! I’m really looking forward to starting.
My body, on the other hand, is looking forward to resting. Not only did I get a job today, but a head cold as well. It’s a little exciting, though, because I finally went out and purchased a Neti Pot, which turns out to be way more awesome than I expected. Now I can breathe, and my sinuses stopped burning. Maybe I’ll be able to sleep tonight!

Interview tomorrow. I’m super nervous, even though I’m pretty sure I don’t have all that much to be nervous about. I’m worried I’ll ramble ramble ramble and say stupid things.
When I interviewed with my current family, I was asked “How would your friends describe you?” and I replied “Uh…I don’t know…boring?!” Seriously. I love shoving my foot in my mouth.

This is how my hair dries. Natural waves, yo! Too bad it can’t do much else.

Seriously, who uses this setting in Photobooth?! It makes no sense.
In other news, I started playing Minecraft, and it ate my life.

This is my stress face. The lame part about it is I don’t actually have anything valid to stress about. I might be hired by a couple more families for ABA Therapy, which is awesome, though I’m worried about balancing my own dreams with my drive to make as many people happy as possible.

Late update, I know, life has been pretty crazy the past few days.

So Brandon slept over at our place on May 3rd, we get up in the morning and are just hanging out, and in a completely irrelevant conversation we come to find out that TODAY IS HIS BIRTHDAY. We feel like the worst friends ever, so we took him out for awesome German food and shopping at the Lonsdale Quay in North Van.

Appollo got sprayed by a skunk in the wee hours of the morning. He was pretty miserable but he’s much less stinky now.

This picture is supposed to be me showing off my night guards, alas they don’t look like much of anything unless I take them off, which just looks really gross. So, there are night guards on my teeth! I’m a bruxer.

Sometimes I bite a rock with my eye and make a really ugly face…with a hat on. I rely way too heavily on props, just trying to keep things interesting!
