WTF was I thinking?!?

Damn, it's been so long since I've actually posted, I'll have to see if I can remember how to work this thing.

Ah yes…it's not that difficult; easy enough for a blonde to operate.

I don't have as much internet access as I'm used to and my working/writing environment has been elevated from sucking—to just plain shitty. Why? Perhaps it's because right now, we're living with my mother-in-law (Yes, it is as bad as it sounds) and I actually have no work area...other than the dining room table and hard as hell chairs.

What is it that I miss the most in being here? (Besides my desk and my big leather chair, of course.)

I miss being able to maintain a train of thought for longer than 5 seconds, being able to decide by the caller ID whether or not I wanted to actually talk to my mother-in-law, all of the post-it notes I use in writing that were starting to look less and less like individual notes and were beginning to look more like some odd scheme of fuckered up wall-papering.

*sigh*

Ok, so those aren't the only things I miss. Just the ones I could think of in the 5 seconds that my brain was actually engaged.

I think one of the things I just miss the most is my PRIVACY! I miss being able to have a conversation with my husband that my MIL and brother-in-law (because he's here as well, more often than not) aren't privy to. There is no such thing as privacy here. I seemed to have forgotten that little factoid when I agreed that we could live here until we were able to find a house.

WTF was I thinking?!


*goes off to search the classified ads…yet again*
