Quick! Hurry up and post this!

I know, I KNOW.

The surprise from FedEx was my new Droid, which I would post photos of but that would entail me putting it down long enough to pick up my camera and actually take the photo. Aaaaand… no.

It’s been a crazy (and not in a good way) week. My dad was scheduled for a bone marrow biopsy last Friday. It has been postponed until March 1, due to some mixed up numbers on the blood work reports. The numbers have been straightened out, but the test couldn’t be completed that particular day.

My stepmom is in Tennessee right now, taking care of HER father, so I went out to take my dad to the appointment and then after it became clear that he wasn’t going to have the bone marrow biopsy, I came home. I just checked on him and he’s watching the race, so all is well, at least for the moment. I’m not going to say that I’m not worried. But I’m choosing not to dwell on it until we have more concrete things to worry about.

Ok, so maybe I tried to poison him just a tad by fixing a frozen pizza while I was there and forgetting to take the cardboard off the bottom. That’ll teach him to refuse my offer of stopping for takeout on the way. I wonder if THAT’S why he opted to go out for Mexican the following night. Hmm….

My stepsister just told me (via text message) that I am a fast typer (of text messages). That makes me laugh because I used to get so frustrated with Kimmer sending four messages to my ONE that I’d just say, “Eff it!” and call her. So, yeah, I love the Droid. I love checking in on Foursquare. I just wish that I had more friends there. It’s sad when you’re the only geek in your group of friends. It’s also sad to realize that I’ve been part of Foursquare for nearly two months now and I have a pathetically small amount of checkins.

That’s the life of the full time working grad student.
