strange occurences

Some more-random-than-usual things have happened in theshuberthome this week. Hmm.

• My Dad and Chris got iPhones Sunday. iPhones pretty much rock my face off, and I can't wait until June so I can get one, too. Yes, I am going to retire the blackberry soon.
• When Brooks and I were jogging the other day, he pooed WHILE WE WERE RUNNING DOWN THE STREET! He didn't even slow down or squat or anything. (Okay, this is more funny than random, and I can't believe that I am posting about dog poo. So that IS random.)
• I added wiki and random useless knowledge to my blog. I am not sure if I like it or not. Opinions?
• Chris and I went on a date. To the movies. We saw Watchmen. I don't think I recommend it. Maybe if you have three hours to spare, and it just happens to come on TV. For free. Then it might be okay to watch. It was too long and very graphic. It was fun to spend some time with Chris. We ate Twizzlers and popcorn and drank giant fountain cokes. We haven't been out together in so long. We went to the grocery store after the movie, which is always fun.
• I got a response for a job application today. The email stated that I didn't meet the qualifications for the position. That position would be a secretary. At the Tuscaloosa VA Hospital. A person with administrative experience and a bachelor's degree is not qualified. I was pretty happy though, because I didn't want to work there. I applied at a place today where I REALLY want to work.
• I am finalizing plans for our Texas trip. I am getting excited! (The fact that UAB is paying for most of it makes it even more exciting.) Galveston has WARM weather. I heart the beach!
• I haven't washed my hair since Tuesday night. And it still looks spectacular. I think it has more color in it than usual, so when I actually take the time to dry it straight, it lasts longer. Yay.
• We received yet another piece of mail addressed to Christopher Shaker. (You must be a long-time follower to find this is amusing.)
• I think Chris and I officially agreed on an ideal time to have kids. Don't get too excited. It won't be any time soon. And we probably won't even live in Alabama when we become parents.

it happened

The stages of grief DID happen. That is why my posts have been pretty much non-existent. This week and last week are the depression stages. I have no idea how long this will last. Three weeks ago I went through the guilt stage. Last week I had the flu (the virus took advantage of my waysostressed body) that was contracted from my darling husband. Chris's brother was also involved in a terrible accident. He is at home, but he has been through so much, especially for a teenager. We were on the way to Jasper Friday, and Chris casually mentioned that hallucinations were a normal part of the grieving process. No lecture, just a little snippet of information. Okay, that is all for today. Maybe all for this week. Who knows?
