So many amazing things to report

[lunabee34]

1. I have known for a week now, but I was asked to keep the results confidential until official announcements were made; I didn't post anything here because I know several people I know in RL read this journal, and I wanted to respect that confidentiality. So, without further adieu....

I GOT TENURE! I GOT TENURE! I GOT TENURE!

2. My BPAL package arrived today, and I got four frimps! Juke Joint, Bread and Butterfly, Endymion, and Thy Godfather's Present. I did not expect such bounty. Yay!!!! Emma is being so adorable about trying the perfumes with me. I let her pick which one we'd try first, and she chose Incantation. I am waiting for her to finish her shower (with scentless products! OMG, I want to smish her all up; she's copying me because I was wearing Aveda Stress Fix today and I want to sniff on a blank canvas) so we can get started. Yay for mother-daughter perfume bonding time!

3. Ems and I got to see Winter Soldier today and all the squee, my friends. I will be posting a review later when I get a chance to write one up. I very carefully sat on my hands and did not read anything anyone posted about this movie. If you posted a review or some meta, will you please link me to it so I can read now? I can't remember who all posted about the movie. :)

4. People are giving me things! sallymn made me some awesome perfume icons and musyc is sending me an imp of Croquet. <3

5. Finally, Fiona is no longer ill. She has been down at the mouth (oh so literally; the scamp is cutting 6 freaking teeth all at once; she has 8 teeth in her mouth OMG) all week, and we had to keep her out of daycare for two days because of the fever. It really, really sucks not having any family close. Josh and I both have had to miss too much work this semester because of Feefers being sick. :( But today she is back to herself, all grins and cooing and trying to climb on top of everything. Yay for happy and healthy babies!!!!

Thank you.

Although I fear I spoke too soon re: Fiona. She has been fussy and whiny all day. I think her teeth are screwing her up again. :(

Tenuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure! Hooray hooray! I'm not in academia, but I know how important that is. Huzzah for you!

You beat me too it! I had friending you on my agenda for the day. :)

Croquet arrived today. I'm letting my eleven year old decide the order we try things in so I don't know where it will fall in the rota but I am excited.

And thanks so much for the congrats. I am deeply relieved to have that behind me.
