hehe...I took a break from studying, rewriting old exams in order to check my e-mail. Upon returning to my Word document, the only word gracing the page was: Bitch. (I'm a veterinary student, so I can discuss your bitch with you anytime... )

Basil chicken with snap peas, onions, and mushrooms.

mmmmm. make no mistake of it ladies. brandon is a darn good cook.

I am suddenly crushing on the Otter. I really didn't need to know that, Daniel!



Favorite things: gas masks, and paint thinner, and bad Darth Vader jokes. Honey. Hairbrushes. Stacks of presents (for other people, silly). Chatting with friends. Walks (even of the way-too-short study-break variety). Stickers. Smiling. Dancing in the metro station.

Pirate stickers from Libby!

Phone conversations. I cannot explain this enough. Then again, my meaning is probably completely obvious, so I don't think I have to.

Ditto.

Being in such a monomaniacal mindset that a poem that should have taken an hour to write, took maybe fifteen minutes.

knowing that people are praying for me.

Finishing my Senior Assessment paper! Boo ya!

yay you!

you go girl!


awesome job, becky.

Congrats Becky!

a finished paper is an accomplishment in itself (screw the grade)!!!

Thanks, gang! This paper was the biggest chunk of writing for my entire year, aside from my thesis, so getting it out of the way is a good feeling.

becky's signature. awesome book indeed.

yeah Becky finished her paper! wooo!

good news and happy things in the spoken requests forum

Helpful phone numbers & nice people.
Dancing in the kitchen.

That BEAUTIFUL moment at which you realize you DO INDEED have access to a particular journal article ONLINE. My printer is currently spitting out sheet after sheet of double-sided PDF beauty. Many thanks to my friend Lisa, scholar.google.com, and my school's support of online academic resources.

Being in a simplycraptacular mood, and discovering, after spending about 3 minutes in The Orchard, that I am amused as all get-out. And no longer grumpy and/or grouchy!!

: )

My new CDs (well, new copies of live shows) from Zayne! Zayne, you're great!

I'm going to start with chair dancing and work my way up.

my friends -- i know i've mentioned them a bunch of times but i really do love and appreciate them so much...so much more than i can ever help them understand.

they have a way, collectively and individually, of making the world seem a little bit more secure and small. they make me laugh when i don't think i have a laugh anywhere in my soul. and they accept the sunshine days and the totally bitchy days as just another part of life.

my friends are helping me be a better person, find humor, and discover daily it's ok just being me.

end of gush,
zayne

That my parents sent a photocopied forty-page document which is completely irrelevant to my project with the note "has nothing to do with baptism, but interesting. Save for a rainy day."

There is enough snow that the ground is looking more white than green.
And I'm safe at home.

listening to october project on a cold day always makes me feel warm inside.

It's warm out!

I dig me some October Project from time to time too.

it doesn't so much make me warm and fuzzy as it does make me chuckle...

my mother, programming the new fax machine with speed dial numbers. it goes a little something like this...

:: pushing numbers :: beep, beepbeepbeep "sh*t." beepbeep "oh, sonofab*tch" beepbeepbeep beep beep "you a**hole" beepbeep *heavy, long sigh* beepbeepbeepbeep "GAH!" beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep *pause* "michelle... come look at this, please!" :: go over, look at it, hit a button, come back to seat ::

she's now happily beeping away sans profanity and furrowed brow.

mmm, family.

mary fahl's voice is so wonderful and warm -- make me wish i had a fireplace to enjoy it by.

getting to wear my favorite scarf for the first time this season. it's orange, and it looks like it's made of muppet.

don't worry though, i was assured that no muppets were hurt during the making of the scarf.

The smell of pumpkin pie baking in the oven ...

I love this line.

Finding a new, kick ace coffee shop three blocks from my house.

Add me to the society against the cruelty to grover.

Since this is the favorite things thread, I'll have to add this one:
When I was 6, I met Cookie monster in full costume.

The little kid in The Nanny Diaries was nicknamed Grover. The book made me cry.

I don't know what to do with all these phone calls ...

... except return them.

an honest days work

Don't worry friends. I would never hurt the little blue buddy. The scarf is quite Grover friendly.

After all, he taught me
