It's 4 DAYS, get it right!

Today is the birth date of a woman who works in my department. Consequentially she personally offered me a donut, to which I could not say no, for I delight in cream filled chocolate smothered kinds and there was a perfect one to be had in that little box. Once I had it situated on a little napkin, I realized that I had vowed to myself this morning that I would eat healthy because my bod is not so bikini worthy... It is lunchtime, and I found myself singing "I want you!...I want you so baaaaaaa-ad!... I want yooouoooouooou!" (courtesy, the Beatles) to this pathetic looking donut that has somehow ended up isolated in the most desolate corner of the cubicle.

I think it wants me too...

8 days!

Watching little Mermaid with my girly 3 year old cousin Adrianna. It was the part where Arial saved Eric from an epic fiery shipwreck and was laying next to him on the beach singing. I got a sudden sharp suprise of intense giddiness as he drowsily smiles and opens his eyes and sees her and is in love... for like, two seconds I was embarrassed for myself, but then Adrianna suddenly turned to me with a giddy smile too. A 3 year old's chick flick totally suffices for 20 year olds too.

9 Days and Counting...

"And your birthday is in... November!"

Ah the beauty of saying unimportant things. Thanks Rach, it was amazing to witness you say 'november' with almost as much enthusiasm as you would have said 'october'.

I am in utter elation. I feel as clean and blooming and bright on my inside as it feels on the inside of the Temple. What an amazing thing to witness and cuddle up with tonight. I am a new book, with the new book smell and the new book clean feel. Crisp pages, snappy cover, stiff spine, perfectly cornered edges... the best part will be reading the adventures

(still to come)

10 Days and Counting...

Today I came home during my lunch break. My mom happened to be home, and she asked me if I wanted to go shopping for my birthday/luau/going away party. So instead of going back to work, I went to a party store and browsed in the luau isle akin with an 8 year old. She was also with her mom.

You know, it's too bad that the death of an uncle and moving away (to basically a different country...) were the only ways for me to truly understand and feel just HOW MUCH i love love love love love my family. I, who am a very emotionally stunted human being, find the bodily reaction to such a love is utterly painful. An aching crying pain. But all in all, it is beautiful.

An overheard conversation betwixt my mom and dad. Emotional temperature was totally serious.

"Where did my head go?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen your head for a long time."

11 days and counting...

Today is a bright day!

At work there is a normal door, and a revolving door. the normal door says "please use the revolving door."
