I've talked with my mom and with Chad about the whole ordeal and I've gained some perspective. How could I ever handle Donald Trump's board room if I get so bent out of shape over a comment made during an English seminar? I'm hoping Chad is right in assuming that it feels worse than it is.

my laundry would be done, groceries would be in my fridge, everything on my "Get at Wallmart" list would be crossed off, and I'd be pigging out on McDonald's.

I typed away happily knowing that by this time next year I'll have one just like it but when it was time to shut down and return it I felt ( Read more... )

"Clumsy" by Our Lady Peace randomly appeared on my playlist one day and I had such an intense reaction to it that I downloaded a bunch of other songs that I was obsessed with during the mellowdramatic era that was the 90s.

THERE IS A SMILE ON MY FACE BECAUSE...

1. Chad is back from Camp Kickass and he is here to stay!

2. As of 7:30pm this evening I will be captivated and mezmorized by Johnny Depp's interpretation of Willy Wonka in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. My four little cousins are coming with us =).

3. I'm the proud owner of the brand spankin' new Cuff ( Read more... )
