oh wait, i totally have a livejournal!

inker_alpha gently reminded me that it's been a long freakin' time since I've updated (thanks buddy! ♥), so now is as good a time as any, I suppose.

Things have been pretty quiet, but in a nice way. Nate and I had a low-key Valentine's Day, which was pleasant -- I bought him a video game, he bought me a delicious cake (fun fact: cake is the way to my heart, for reals), and then we ordered a pizza from our favorite local place and watched The Social Network. Verdict: awesome evening. And then our anniversary was last week (three years, how fucking awesome is that? ♥♥♥), so we decided to splurge a little and go out someplace nice for dinner. We went to the Laurelhurst Market and ate delicious food and drank delicious wine, and all in all it was the best sort of anniversary I could've asked for.

In less pleasant news, I got sick again. This bout of ick is particularly nasty (I'm now at the end of week 2 and it's still lingering), so I finally sucked it up and made an appointment with the OHSU Oregon Sinus Clinic. They're specialists and it's expensive as hell even with the insurance, but it seems like my sinuses and throat are getting worse and worse every year and I'd like to rule out chronic sinusitis before I get into nursing school and lose my cushy health insurance. It's also entirely possible I'll need to get my tonsils out and/or get some heavy duty allergy shots, so. Doing all this while I can still afford it, yep yep.

Speaking of nursing school, I should be finding out sometime this month whether I made it or not. Expect a jubilant post full of capslock if I make it, and an insufferably emo f-lock post if I don't. Fair warning, etc.

Just watch -- now that I've said this, I won't find out until early April or something horrifying like that. :B

good luck with that, I just wanted to hear about yurt camping!

Yurt camping was awesome! The yurts are much bigger than they look in the pictures, and since there's a little electric heater inside we were able to stay pretty warm. It rained with varying degrees of severity for most of the weekend, which was kind of lousy -- on the first day we didn't really mind, but by the end of the second day we were getting a little tired of being damp all the time. I guess that's the risk you take when you go camping on the Oregon coast at the beginning of February, though. XD

We definitely want to go again when the weather is a little nicer, maybe out to Bend or somewhere like that. It was so wet all weekend that we didn't get much of a chance to hike around and, you know, ~enjoy nature~, which is part of the point in camping in the first place!

(The other downside was that we didn't sleep very well all weekend, but that's partly because I forgot to throw our pillows in the car. OOPS.)
