The power cord on my laptop has stopped working. It won't stay plugged in long enough to charge the battery, and won't stay in long enough to even use the thing for more than 10 minutes. Of course I didn't know you couldn't buy dell stuff at the store, you have to order it online. So no laptop for a few days, until the cord arrives. My laptop, while relatively new, has quickly become an obsession with me, I have everything saved on it, and the only other computer in the house is my roomie's MAC.
All you MAC lovers out there, bear with me, but the MAC won't even load all of the blogger toolbars, it won't load my favorite blogs on my own freaking blog site, and while very nice, is in general a piece of crap.
Justin's two shoulder surgeries are at 6am tomorrow morning. So I don't know how much I will be posting in the next couple of days. He is supposed to be released, at the latest, at 430am Tuesday morning. (This will avoid being charged an overnight stay.) He could be released Monday evening, but it's doubtful. I have most of this week off from work, except for three or four times where I will have to go in, and leave Justin with a designated person whose job is to keep his stubborn butt in bed and keep him from lifting anything.
I had thought having the week off would provide numerous blogging opportunities, but it all depends on how much Justin needs help and how much I have to yell at him.
I know I promised an update on the big shindig (I love that word) that Justin's family had. They introduced their children and the children's families. They called prior and asked how we should be introduced. They brought all of their kids up, and when it was our turn, I was introduced as Justin's partner. I think that is really great of them. This was not the most progressive and hip crowd, and I am sure some people didn't approve, but I don't care. His family is great.
Anyway, I will blog when I can. And I will still be reading, and commenting whenever circumstances allow.

Good to read your updates, even if you think you got nuttin' goin' on.
Good luck to Justin and speedy recovery!!!
Damn, two shoulder surgeries? Hope he gets better soon.
Man, I get nervous introducing my opposite sex partner to my fam. I can't imagine if I had to introduce a "partner"! LOL. I'm always nervous, and before I can introduce him, my mom always blurts out, "This is DaMasta's FRIEND!"
Hope Justin gets better! :)
Thanks everyone. It really means a lot to me. (And Justin is finally starting to understand why I like the whole blogging thing.) He says thank you as well.
If I end up dressing in a nurse outfit, you know I will post it. It would top the funniest thing I have ever written.
And I will be writing in the hospital Monday and Tuesday, in a low tech notebook, so I won't lose or forget all of the funny/irritating/etc. stuff we experience.
Love you guys.
Okay, I'm a naughty girl because I'm thinking of all the ways you can tease and torture someone who doesn't have use of both arms. Oh, the fun! And not all of it is mean. Hahaha!
I hope the procedures and recovery are painless for both of you. Good luck!
Three cheers for a speedy recovery to Justin, and to you, for being there!
I cannot wait to hear about your shindig...glad the MAC, is there for you in your time of need...(the only MACs I like are Big, or the Viva Glam line..)
Wishing Justin a speedy recovery! And, for your sake, hope he's a good patient. :)
As difficult and humiliating a recovery from two shoulder surgeries (say that five times fast!) will be, this is also going to be a very stressful tiime for you-- especially if Justin is a...ahem, "high maintenance" patient. Good luck to both of you.
And congrats. If I asked my family to introduce (or even meet) a partner they would go Idaho on my ass.
Sorry about your computer woes. I've dealt with a bunch over the last year. I love my mac, but it's been in for two overhauls (harddrive trouble etc.) I'm sure it's just all my husband's porn that he think I don't know about. whatever. :)
Okay, I was just catching up on the arnold post and I saw my link. I'm sending you a virtual kiss (with a lot of tongue) xo
Alright, since you asked for it on my blog...
I found the SE Hinton essay online (I guess its called an autobiographical statement). It's at this link:

(it was published originally in 1978).
cheers.
We miss, you Bobby!!!!
Thanks everyone. And thanks Madge for the link, I will be reading later when I get Justin all doped up and asleep.
Love all of you!
