a friday night at home...
alone.
well, with the mcdoggles...
watching pride & prejudice.
sigh...
it. is. exquisite.
(sorry for the delay in my writing, mom & dad.)
(i've been working nights lately, which has drained me of any creative thoughts.)
bear with me.
here's a random collection of recent happenings:
A. the weather in the city has been quite agreeable lately. i ran outside yesterday in shorts . the change couldn't have come at a better time. i was feeling suffocated by walls & concrete. i meandered through our neighborhood & over to the lake michigan trail. what a refreshing sight! water! expanse! mind you, the chopping waves were the color of green tempered glass...but it was breathtaking nonetheless.
II. i got a library card last weekend.
oh, happy day!!
here is the first book i checked out.
and then i spent an evening at a coffee shop with a dear friend while she studied.
and i read for sheer pleasure.
i didn't study. not one bit.
i used to daydream about those kind of nights when i was in grad school.
i reveled in every single second of it.
3. d gave me this for my birthday
& I.LOVE.IT:
"The Path of Life charm is emblematic of life’s zenith and nadir moments, this charm illustrates life’s twists, turns and unexpected winds, all the while complimenting the beauty in its pattern. The emerald charm has been known to calm a troubled mind bringing the wearer reason and wisdom. A sacred stone of the goddess Venus, emerald is thought to preserve love and is a symbol of hope."
D. i had a barrage of excellent happenings today,
each of which made the sun shine a little brighter...
i called the IRS. there was a mistake. they were wrong!!
AND
we scored tickets to see Florence & the Machine
AND
Airborne Toxic Event
AND
Jay Nash.
BUT
the news that my dear friends are making
a trip here this summer
to do THIS....
MADE.MY.DAY.
holy guacamole!
