For the first time in ages, I really really, really want to go out on a Friday night. In fact, I can tell I feel annoyed and irritated that I have to stay in. I want to go see a movie. Go out for drinks. Not nurse constantly (hello growth spurt and close to walking!), not put a whiny little guy to bed at 7.30, not eat in. If I had limes and tonic water that would help tremendously.

But maybe watching Scrubs will help. And scotch. I do have some excellent scotch about.

I was going to post today about how I was craving the waters around Juneau. But screw that nostalgia tonight. I'm too tired to get all homesick and freaked out about moving to Wales.

Just give me a burrito and have the help put Bennett to sleep tonight, ok?

Moving for certain?

Is the move definately going ahead then? A few of your recent posts seem to suggest it's moved beyond considered speulation to impending inevitability.

One thing (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/jobs/4736663/Work-permits-for-migrants-to-be-cut.html) caught my eye in the press today though and you may want to wait until you're in a less irritatable mood before reading it.

No, it's not certain. Well, we ARE moving, it's just a matter of where. So there's that. I'm not too worried about the permits, seeing as how I'll be on a student visa (and I'm already in the program) and my husband would be attached to me. But..... I have no idea. I'm not actually worried about it, which is strange coming from a plan freak like me.

I hope you have a good night in and Bennett goes to sleep easily for you. *hugs* I wish I could go out too. :(

Oh my god, the growth spurt. He has to have my boob in his mouth all the time. All. the. time. I broke down and Adam gave him a bottle of formula. Out like a light. The constant nursing and squirming was too much. I'm not sure the ol' boobies are keeping up with the demand.

I'm off to eat a hearty snack, make some mama tea and relax before trying to sleep again.... gotta prep for the 2am-7am nursing shift. O_o

It's ok sweetie, that one time isn't going to hurt. I'm glad to hear that he slept well though. You sleep well tonight, ok?

Good luck! I'll bring some limes and tonic when I come and take you to see a movie if you can break the boob away briefly. :-)

Yes! Let's definitely go see a movie and leave B with A!

I felt that way too, last night. But the movies that are in our small town suck and there really isn't anything else to do.

I was going to make a grapefruit martini and watch a dvd. But I made tea instead. I had this feeling that it wouldn't be ONE cocktail - it would be 8. Then I would be an idiot and feel like shit the next day.

I ended up nixing the scotch. It just seemed to be too depressing to be drinking expensive liquor while wearing jammies and watching sitcoms.

Grapefruit martinis sound excellent, by the way.
