The Bungalow

Last night, I was putting Martouf to bed, he was all tucked in, lights turned out and all that. I bent down to kiss him good night and he whipped his head up and bashed right into the bridge of my nose. There was a cracking/popping noise, a little bit of blood (though more like a little blood tinged mucus), and bruising and swelling almost immediately. It is now about 19 hours later and it still hurts. Not nearly as bad as it did when it first happened, but it still doesn't feel good.

However, good news - it's not crooked. Hence why I haven't gone to the ER yet. I did do some Googling and everything seemed to say the same thing. If it's not crooked, it doesn't need to be set, so no need to see a doctor. If it's still hurting a few days later, then you might want to get it checked out. So, if by Sunday I'm still in pain, then I might head to the ER and see what they say.

So, yeah. That's my day so far.... :-)

Seriously, I go away for the weekend and the internet explodes with Darren awesomeness. (Seriously, Darren. You can stop it with the being awesome and cute anytime now. Thanks.) Even with my swanky new phone, I was still pretty much unconnected cos you can barely get 3G out there, so forget 4G. Ugh. Being addicted to the internet sucks sometimes. :-P

And the weekend ended up being kind of a bust anyway cos of the weather.

Here's the dealio: June is a very busy month in the Switch household. My dad's birthday is the 4th. My mom AND father-in-law's are the 11th, which is also my wedding anniversary (5 years!!). My birthday is the 23rd and Father's Day is whatever Sunday it is. So, the last couple years we've just been picking one day in the middle of the month and doing one big celebration for everything. This year, we decided to invite everyone out to the summer house for a little mini-break and some fun on the lake. Well, Mother Nature decided to step-in and stick her tongue out at us and make it rainy and cold all weekend. Yuck.

One nice thing that we did manage to pull off was having my brother drive-in from Ohio Friday night. He'd just moved up there to start a new job so it was kind of like if nothing comes up he can probably make it. But he's also never driven there so, and it's kind of in the middle of nowhere, so *fingers crossed*. But he made it! Yay! So, we ended up just hanging around the house and playing games and stuff. It was OK, but maybe not as fun as it could have been. Had yummy steak dinner Saturday night for the official celebration night.

So, yeah. And, ugh, I'm having issues with spn_epicontest. I'm losing entrants like mad. The first couple weeks after I took over, it was still pretty steady with the usual 20-25 entries each week. But now it's down to 10-15 if I'm lucky. Is it just that it's summer and everyone is out doing other stuff now? I'm altering the schedule slightly to help me and I wonder if maybe it'll help the other folks, too. But, ugh. I don't know. It's getting frustrating. I'm contemplating a pimping/promo reward type thing. Like, for every new person you get to participate, you get to submit an extra icon that week. But not everyone submits the max anyway, so I don't know if that would really be helpful. If anyone has any advise that would be great. :-)

The Glee Project is recording for me to watch tomorrow. I don't know if I'll watch the whole season, but I at least wanted to see what the first episode was like. *fingers crossed*
