time to play catch up?

an amazingly large amount of things have happened since i last wrote on this here blog, in the world as a whole as well as in my world.
 i have spent some time reading past blogs, and i am so happy that i didn't decide in a spur of the moment to delete it like i did my youtube. it has served as a phenomenal diary and it has been very interesting to read back on the past years. there were some very painful times represented in this blog, very dark times that are a very gargantuan reason why it's taken me 3 years to even look at this site. a year after working at my classroom, (a year after i stopped writing) i was diagnosed as having an anxiety disorder and slight depression. it SCREAMS obvious, at least to me, and while i am currently unmedicated (breastfeeding) and therefore slightly crazy, i am in such a better place. i was having anxiety attacks  in grocery stores, not going out to parties and events that i should have been attending, and it was taking its toll on not only me, but really andy and JULIET. so i did something about it. and i am so happy i did. that is a huge change. what else has happened?
here's some things:
*i had a baby (scarlet judith. she's almost 3 months old!)
*andy lost his shit job at storage deluxe which means
*we lost our apartment so
*we moved to port chester but
*andy got an AMAZING job doing computer nerd shizz and he is BRILLIANTLY HAPPY
*in the world of echo station, jen and steve had a 2nd baby, a girl, and mike and amy had a lil' boy. while that is all gravy in creating the next generation of our echo family,
*joebags died in february 2011. it was totally devastating and really rocked our world. he was still living in costa rica, and was happily married and most heartbreakingly of all expecting a baby in september. it's horrible.


as far as the whole wide world, here are some things that stick out from my reading of this here blog:
*michael jackson died, and it was a far bigger deal than when anna nicole smith died.
*no one has myspace anymore. it is all about the facebook (which i will commonly refer to as spacejam or spacebook)

however, somethings have remained steadfastly same. for instance:
*juliet is still juliet. which is to say actually diagnosed adhd. still having a hard time in school, still impulsive, still wonderous.
*i'm still a psycho especially when people write things on the interwebs that involve me no matter how indirectly.
