Hello everyone! Many apologies for my scarcity; we have had problems with our satellite on the ship and so being online has become quite a luxury! But I'm ashore today in Hilo, Hawaii, and taking advantage of free wifi!
Things have been going pretty well - we have a new cruise director on board who I'm not a huge fan of, but otherwise things are fine! We had karaoke in the crew bar last night and apparently no one knew I could sing, so I kind of felt like a rockstar for a little while. There was also almost a boy in my life, but he just got switched to a shift where I'm lucky if I see him in passing once a week, so that has come to a screeching halt. Oh well! Making lots of friends, which is nice.
I bought Christmas decorations today! I'm very excited to deck my cabin out. I am not even the slightest bit religious but I absolutely adore Christmas.
Aww! I am sitting in a Starbucks and a passenger from the ship just came up and told me that I do a great job. I have people shouting at me so many hours a day that I love hearing nice things once in a while!!
I hope everything here is going well for people! I wish I had time to catch up on everything I've missed on the board, but alas. I will definitely be buying myself a ship Internet card for Christmas, so I will potentially be around a bit more for a little while. Have a great day!
I keep telling Devi, that as now-eldest at *gasp* 14, she's not allowed to get sick. EVER.
....yeah. We'll see how that goes.

You're like two ships that...oh, never mind. MAKE IT WORK, LADY.
I just called my mother to update her on the never-ending work saga, and ended up by bumming her out about one of the markedly disturbed branches of our family. But she cheered herself by saying it all obviously meant I needed to get married.
She's never met the segue she couldn't strongarm, that woman.

I have definitely pointed this out to Homer recently.
I tried telling Perkins the cat that, and it's mostly worked, even to the point of surprising the vet.
As Jeeves gets older, I remind him more frequently that he needs to stay well.
"the problem is there's probably nothing that could possibly happen to this cat that would cost $6,000"
WHAT. Ha. That person has no idea.
Don't. You. Dare. One, you'd do it again. Two, I don't want to feel peer pressure to do the same. Ridiculous amounts. But worth it.
What Cass said. BRB, have to tell all the kitties they're not allowed to get sick.
I keep telling Kittenish that too. Though what I've told her most recently is that, "Oh, yes, you're a lady." because she's half on my lap purring, looked up and sneezed at me. Classy.
