If I had sent a little update this morning, as I had originally intended, you would have found me a little exasperated that Abbie kept me up all night, the usual non-emergency amount worried because the reason for the wakefulness seems to be Abbie catching a cold, excited that we have lots of new taiko members who will be at practice tomorrow, and on the whole optimistic about the Christmas parties I attended over the weekend. I would have written a happy, gossipy little post and complained of tiredness.
This afternoon I found out that Josh's didn't get the job he was so, so, SO excited about. In fact, I didn't realize how much we were all secretly counting on it. Plus, I had to call him and tell him about it. So, now I am nothing except crushed. It hurts to be back where we started, complete with desperate worry. Back we go to the starting board. I guess I can't wait until after January to look into those work from home jobs I was reading about.
I'm waiting and waiting for something good to happen to our situation. Reality has an awfully bitter taste.
I only have a few hours to force myself into a position where I can cheer up poor Josh. I had better start working on that.
