I have been deliciously endowed with a new computer. Mainly for gaming. And it is sitting by my door in a box all ready like a sweet present to open. I keep going in circles around the box. I have to wait for my husband to come home and install the nic card and bring home a monitor. But I am getting a temporary place set up so that tonight...when the kids are fast asleep...mommy and papa can geek out in eq2 together *YAYYYYYY!* Happy happy joy joy dance!!!! And then Maithius, Paladin of paranoid tendancies (you would need to talk to my guild leader about my tanking and why I yelled "Get on the wall" on vent....well obviously to get the monsters off us...sheesh...), and Supersake 74 fury extrordanaire can finally be together with our faithful friends Priastia, bangity boom boom wizard, Silverpaw Master Monk and Khraaven Guardian and the real tankage to smack some ravasect off-side the head. Or the dragon pictured above..... Ok...i DID warn you it was geeky.....
My husband has a job offer in Indonesia. Which doesn't sound bad at first until you find out where the mine is located. On the west side of the island of Papua. The east side is New Guinea. As far as I can see it's a big ol rain forest with nothing...NO THING else besides the mine. I think if that's the case I can enjoy such an adventure for about 2 months before it would get old. Cool things...it's about 400 miles from Austrailia, we would have a company house, housekeeper (because the tribes negotiated a work program for their people when they sold the land), a chauffeur and bodyguards. Not so cool things: We'd need a bodyguard?!? Medical care has to be done out of the country because their healthcare is so poor, not sure if there is a school for the kids and if there is no DSL or other high speed internet it is so not a done deal. Could I handle 2 years isolated in the middle of a rainforest? Not sure. I am going nuts in small desert town in USA, that long in the rainforest might challenge my sanity. If it were just a year I would probably jump on it anyway for the experience...I love to travel, but with 2 young kids in tow is it too much?

On a very happy note....

My very very good friend is getting married! Gerry...who many thought to be a confirmed bachelor...only because he was so picky in dating and believed that you only date for LTR. Oh he may deny that part, but it was true. He can no longer just be referred to: "My besht fwiend" (as I am roaring drunk on St. Patty's day in SF, helping me as I puked on the street before driving me home in his car) nor "The Alcoholic Friend who ruins People's Lives" (as he was used by many a counterpart as a scapegoat for their own behavior) ****NOTE: If the the second title were true, he wouldn't have been such a fantastic designated driver that fated St. Patty's Day**** He can now be called happy estatic romantic, who is marrying a woman special indeed. For she has captured his heart and thinks it as much a treasure as he thinks hers is. I know you rarely get to Tribe Ger...but just wanted you to know how happy I am for you :)
