From Florida to Wyoming

Left Florida, as planned, in May. Drove the whole way with two dogs and three cats. Not quite where I want to be yet, but closer at least. It’s not so pretty. Kind of like a cold windy dessert. Got another puppy since I last posted. A little female Blenheim. Her name is Rosalina (but we call her Rosie). She is almost 6 months old and still very small, not like Aubrey. Aubrey is over 20 lbs. He will be a year old on the 10th. It is nice to have a house and a yard. We can put all those furry things outside when they get too obnoxious smile

I worked at Wal Mart all summer. Now I am in school. Even without working, I have so much to do. It didn’t help that I missed most of the first week of classes. I have only just recently caught up in all my classes. Those absences were for what was supposed to become one of the best memories of my life. We had tickets for the Aug. 28 Michael Jackson concert. I cried most of the week following the tragic news and I thought I would only feel worse as the London trip approached. But I didn’t. I wasn’t so happy either, though. I felt mostly tired and indifferent. We stayed in the same hotel as on our honeymoon, but it didn’t seem as grand as it did the first time. I don’t like how the shower was set up, or how the pillows felt gummy, or especially how the lovely view from before was obscured by large, towering apartment complexes. A lot of things went wrong and we ended up losing a full day and a half of our time there. I didn’t really care, but I tried to care. I couldn’t just let it be a wasted trip. I suggested to Eric that we go on a guided tour for the last day. . .a way of forcing something productive to occur. We saw Shakespeare’s home and Oxford. It was all lovely, but I was not nearly as interested as I may have been several years ago. I am always hoping for something grand and exciting, and these things do occur, but I just can’t seem to care when they do. I want to be happy, but I don’t know what it means really. I want external forces to make me happy, but I know that’s not how it works. I am looking for something. . it would sure help if I knew exactly what it was.
