read that blog post of my mom’s and you will see why.
if you are too lazy to read that, i will sum it up for you. basically my dad’s Ericsson office in Colorado is closing down. this means that he doesn’t have a job waiting for him there, clearly, which means that we proooobably won’t go back there in July 2011 as planned. if we did, he’d work at an entirely different place, and none of us see this happening. the other Ericsson offices in the US are in California and Texas, and we’re not even sure we can go to those places, like, at all; there might not be a job for him there at that point and even if there was i don’t think there’s any way to find that out in time, because you have to say 6 months in advance if you plan to move back, and it’s not like you can start applying for a job 6 months ahead of the time that you want to have it. but yeah. i reeeeally don’t want to live in texas and i’m not a big fan of the idea of living in california either, so that doesn’t disappoint me too much.
however, this does make it a definite possibility that we will stay here even longer. again. either for another year or, who knows, forever. there is a looot to think about and it’s very, very complicated, but we’re all over here like what the crap are our lives going to be like one year from now? it’s especially hard when you take into account the fact that i’m going to college in two years. that is one of many, many big problems with all of this.
i’m not even sure how i feel or what i want; i don’t think any of us are. there are huge pros and cons list for every option. actually, we don’t even know what all the option are. it’s all just ridiculous.
not to mention, my phone battery got wet the other day so i can’t use my phone. all sorts of tragedies are being laid down on us, dude, there is a large list of Big Stressful Issues that have been occurring in the last, like, 6 months or something. also Little Stressful Issues like the thing with my phone.
it could be a long time until we know what we’re going to do; we expect to have some idea by around Christmas for now. i am of course not-very-patiently awaiting the verdict. for now i need to do homework and put episodes of The Office on my mom’s computer. yes, that’s right, i’m getting her hooked too.
