vacation
It’s 12:30 and I just took a shower and now I’m watching cable tv, getting ready to meet a friend I haven’t seen in months…I love vacation.
I got a sewing machine!
derbygirl:
Tomorrow I’m heading out to pick up a pattern for an apron (my first project), as well as some cheap scraps to play with. I don’t really know how to sew per se … but practice makes perfect!
Anyone have any recommendations for good sewing websites? Free patterns, tips, etc…
That’s so exciting!
Burda Style has good cheap and free patterns that you can print out from your...

Full disclosure: I have never seen A Christmas Story, Miracle on 34th Street, The Nightmare Before Christmas or It’s A Wonderful Life.
Same here, and I have very little desire to see any of them.
Hey guys. I just got back from the Target on Addison. Totally not busy. In fact, when I went to pay there was one person in front of me in line and he only had one thing. Fastest, easiest trip to Target ever. A Christmas miracle I suppose.

“I cannot count the times I have cursed our lack of urgency. If I ever love again, I will not wait to love as best as I can. We thought we were young and that there would be time to love well sometime in the future. This is a terrible way to think. It is no way to live, to wait to love.”
-Dave Eggers, What is the What
Oh, god. I just realized that I’m going to have to go to target today. I’m a little scared.

Sometimes I feel like such a fool just for expecting people to do what they said they would.
cold
Waited for the bus for 15 minutes today. It felt like an hour. When the bus finally came I was so happy, until I got on and realized that the heat wasn’t working. Really, CTA. Really?

Did you all get a call saying that Northwestern might be closed tomorrow?
They would close once we’re gone for break!
I got an email. it feels like when I found out my high school had a snow day, four years too late.
I work for the med school and all the third years have shelf exams today - not cancelled. I have to be in at 1pm to proctor. Ugh.

one of the many reasons I love Kate
me: Okay girlie. I need to do some stuff before bed.
which is a mere hour and half away....lame
Kate: aight, yo. Nothing wrong with that. I gotta hop on the laundry train and take that to shower city.
me: I love travel.
Kate: I will deny ever saying that.
Forgot how much I like SDRE until 15 seconds ago. I need to listen to Diary or the live album right now.
haircut
tomatoallergy:
i am in desperate need of a haircut.
maybe i should not admit on the internet that i haven’t gotten my hair cut in a hair salon since i was sixteen and my mother told me i couldn’t look ratty for my national honor society induction ceremony, but it is true.
the haircuts i’ve gotten in the last seven years have been in friends’ bathrooms or in my bathroom or in my kitchen or that...
“For the sake of a single verse, one must see many cities, men, and things. One must know the animals, one must feel how the birds fly and know the gesture with which the little flowers open in the morning. One must be able to think back to roads in unknown regions, to unexpected meetings and to partings one had long seen coming; to days of childhood that are still unexplained, to parents...
Sleeping with your head at the opposite end of the bed is great. I slept so well and for some reason I felt like a kid again. I woke up facing my windows with the feeling that it was going to be a good day. Sometimes a little change can go a long way. Next up - sleeping on the floor in a pile a blankets right next to my bed. Something I did more often than not until I was about 13.
Sleeping with my head at the opposite end of the bed tonight.
drunken text message
him: Hey, bep. I had beer. Bed empty. You nice. Waffles. Potatoes. You nice.
I think that tumblr is in cahoots with Nick and Jeff in their attempt to get me to love cats. Adorable ones keep popping up on my dashboard. And yesterday I spent time searching for a picture of a cat reading a book to post. I don’t know myself anymore. Do I think cats are okay? I mean, I’d never want to own or live with one, but they are kind of cute. Sometimes, I guess. If...
He’s wonderful. And that scares me a bit. But he’s wonderful.

Thank you so much for adding some much needed smiles and laughs to my day.
