He's home

Yes, Joseph's finally back. That's the good news; the bad news is that the car is acting up again. We have to have it towed tomorrow morning to a transmission shop to have it taken care of. I hope we can have it fixed fast.

Not everything was bad today. It seems Joseph has found us a really nice apartment in NY. I hope this works out, because it's in a great neighborhood, would be close to work for me and we'd be living by the beach again!!! How exciting!!

I love stuff like this

You got to admit, Bush is his own worst enemy. I swear I don't go around looking for stuff like this, I just stumble upon it. This from WFT is it now?:

It's official: Bush is the worst president evar
Disapproval of the aWol DisasterMonkey breaks all records, number of moron-Americans still high.
Bush has set a record he'd presumably prefer to avoid: the highest disapproval rating of any president in the 70-year history of the Gallup Poll.In a USA Toady/Gallup Poll taken Friday through Sunday, 28% of Americans approve of the job Bush is doing; 69% disapprove. The approval rating matches the low point of his presidency, and the disapproval sets a new high for any president since Franklin Roosevelt.Assessments of Bush's presidency are harsh. By 69-27%, those polled say Bush's tenure in general
has been a failure, not a success.Why do Americans hate America?Not to worry, I'm sure his numbers will go up after his appearance on "Deal or No Deal" where he actually joked about the shitty economy.Asswipe.

He'll be home soon

Yes!! Joseph will be coming home on Saturday.... only 2 ½ days to go. We're both very excited, especially since this was his last tour away from home. Now, since we're going back to NY (oh, yeah... we decided to move back) he'll be able to stay home with me and get local work.

I can't say I'm entirely happy about going back to NY; I really grew to love it here and really feel my quality of life is better here. Unfortunately, going back to NY is the better thing for us right now. But Joseph keeps telling me that we'll come back, and we still want to buy a home here. I'm just not sure it will be easy to come back once we leave.

I can tell you one thing, I didn't shed a tear leaving NY a year and a half ago. But I've already been crying at the thought of leaving San Juan. This is going to be very hard for me, but I've accepted it and just have to get through it. At least I know I have a couple of good friends in Puerto Rico who I can keep in touch with and come back to visit.
