Well, it's the night before our trip, and it looks like we might actually be speaking to each other for the drive. You have no idea what a relief that is! It's a 10-hour drive. Not talking would have been very unpleasant. And such a waste, since we have both been looking forward to this so much. Let's all keep our fingers crossed and hope that things keep getting better.

It's after 11 and I'm still awake. This is mostly due to the fireworks tonight. In any other city, I am a fireworks freak! I love them, I think they are so romantic, and they make me feel like wishes can come true. However, in this city they happen to take place a block from our apartment. Seems convenient, doesn't it? It also seems VERY NOISY!!! I can handle the noise from the actual fireworks; it's the noise from the 250 thousand people in our yard that I don't handle that well. Or the fights. Or the nasty garbage that they leave behind. I know I sound bitter and jaded, but I am. I'm tired of the fireworks, and pretty happy that our vacation means that we'll miss the next 3 nights. Woo hoo! They're beautiful, but it's really time they had them at someone else's beach. White Rock seems like a good idea. ;)

I guess I'll go to bed and try and read. I really need to get to sleep, because I have to go to work tomorrow, and he's picking me up at noon with the car packed and then we're off! And I sort of need to be in the best mood possible, just to make sure things go smoothly. Here's to us! Wish us luck, we just might need all the help we can get.

I love him very much, don't get the wrong idea. But the last few days have been really hard, and I still have some left over bad feelings. I'll do my best though. :) Maybe it's just something in the air...
