You want the good or bad news first?
bad news: Last night I'm hopping onto the bed for sleep time and my eyes drifted to the ceiling. Sighting # 5!!! My god!! so, apparently.. There are numerous spiders. Husband was sure of the one he killed in the bathroom so this is a new one. IN THE SLEEP SANCTUARY! NOO!! no. This one was a girl, I think. She cackled and swayed.
good news: Was worried about getting my passport on time. I got my plane tickets from FedEx and 2 days later my passport arrived. It only took 15 days!! I was bracing myself for it to take 6 weeks + even though I'd been told by others it'd take about a month. I realize seasons and such may play a role in timing. Anyway, I have plane tickets and a passport. I'm set! With this comes the question of job hunting.. I'm leaving for a week at the end of May. Is a job interview the best time to mention this? I wouldn't want to get hired and then bring it up...like I've been hiding it. I think it best for all parties involved if I'm upfront about it. It may be a deciding factor in whether they hire me but I'm not cancelling the trip. Impossible.
PS I'm going to try my damnedest to visit Transylvania while in Romania. No, I wouldn't show up there with some stereotypical view of the place. It'd be pretty kickass, though. I think we're also planning a trip to the Black Sea. Over the weekend that crappy old movie "My Giant" was on. It was set in Romania so that made me laugh a bit. Lovely.

So just now I'm here, reading. I've got a blanket over my lap like an old woman because it'd Cold! I'm sitting here and thinking, ok cat, damn, stop with the tickly tickly. Furry little cat ears and whiskers tickling the back of my leg. Then. I see the cat, across the room, staring at me.
We're infested!!
My wife hates spiders. A lot. She makes me kill them, but I can't help but feel little pieces of karma chipping away every time I do. There are a lot of spiders in KC too...
Don't bring up the trip in the interview unless you are specifically asked. That's the kind of thing you talk about when you get an offer.
