Sideways Stories...

Number of times the microwave beeped before my boss came in to get her coffee:

*16*

... and then her coffee was cold again and so she restarted it...

Reality Check.

I LOVE SPRING BREAK! wait, what? spring break only lasts a week and then i have to go back to the daily grind of putting up with crazies? hardly seems fair. i'm moving to france where they have month long vacations and eat cheese and drink wine all day.

really though, spring break has been swell. got lots of chores done, got to play lots and lots, put my newly painted toesies in the ocean and practice my calligraphy. i still have two more days left to enjoy so i'm going to go finish my coffee and soak in the rest of the weekend. :)

Hurts So Good.

yesterday, i went to a bootcamp workout class with my mom where (excuse my language) i got my ass handed to me by a group of women either:

a) older than me or

b) more overweight than me or

c) both of the above

today, i ache all over but it feels like success. it feels like discovering new boundaries and muscles i never knew existed.

tonight, achy and sore all over, i attended my first yoga class ever (thanks kate!). i stretched my poor muscles and took deep breaths and focused on my center. i learned that worries and stress get stuck in your hips and i think that explains very well why my hips are so big. i also got a reminder to look at the bright side of things and to let go of those worries, so hopefully i'll be dropping a couple inches off these big hips soon ;)

i intend to read a little bit of my book and sleep early tonight. my bed is a little empty but i have two purple post-its on my wall to tell me i'm loved and tomorrow i have my cuddlebuddy back! sweet dreams world.

Fortune Cookie Say

"time for a road trip with a friend"

lucky numbers: 4 8 15 16 23 42

(just kidding)

but really, besides the fortune cookie (which i really did get!), my insides have been begging for a road trip lately.

She grew up on a side of the road

Where the church bells ring and strong love grows

She grew up good

She grew up slow

Like American honey

Steady as a preacher

Free as a weed

Couldn't wait to get goin'

But wasn't quite ready to leave

So innocent, pure and sweet

American honey

There's a wild, wild whisper

Blowin' in the wind

Callin' out my name like a long lost friend

Oh I miss those days as the years go by

Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime

And American honey

Get caught in the race

Of this crazy life

Tryin' to be everything can make you lose your mind

I just wanna go back in time

To American honey, yea

There's a wild, wild whisper

Blowin' in the wind

Callin' out my name like a long lost friend

Oh I miss those days as the years go by

Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime

And American honey

Gone for so long now

I gotta get back to her somehow

To American honey

Ooh There's a wild, wild whisper

Blowin' in the wind

Callin' out my name like a long lost friend

Oh I miss those days as the years go by

Oh nothin's sweeter than summertime

And American honey

And American honey
