yeah, that was today. i'm going to embrace the blessing & talk about it, and pray to the Lord for more blessing, and praise His name for every.single.ounce. : )
after yesterday's enjoyable ride home, i woke up w/ a smile still on my face. *laugh* and when i got to work, i did something which was (for me) pretty brave. i IM'd my crush & asked if that'd been him behind me yesterday. and we started chatting... and i'm still smiling. again, the conversation wasn't anything earth-shattering. we just talked about where we live & our cars & growing up & ... and it made me really, really happy! one of the things we talked about was roommates, and i mentioned that bret had been my favorite roommie & that if he needed to i wouldn't mind him living here again.
it was another day of lots to do & lots getting done, which i was quite grateful for since i'll be out of the office til thursday! i had a nice meeting w/ my boss, where i was blessed to receive some compliments on my recent work & join in a discussion about some changes that are coming down the pike. praise the Lord for my boss, for her keeping me in the loop of what's going on - not only telling me, but allowing me to be an active participant in the changes that are happening. she is a good communicator, and i'm thankful!! : )
btwn last night & this morning, along w/ the fact of vacation looming, my step was light and a smile lit my face. my poor friend & former wall-mate very kindly spent every break - and lunch (adolph's, YUM) - listening to my gushing. we talked about other things, and i tried REALLY HARD not to be one of those ppl. *laugh* it didn't work most of the time.
i go back & forth of - i mean, first of all, i can't imagine that a young man of such incredible adorableness and niceness is single. i know he's not married, so i can continue to happily crush on him. *laugh* but that doesn't mean he's available! and if he IS available, it doesn't mean he would be interested in me the way i am quite sure i'm interested in him. right now, tho, i'm just enjoying the ride. i enjoy his smile and would be quite happy seeing it every day. : )
sometimes i think i share too much - what if by some weird fluke of the imagination he were to stumble upon this little blog & read all of this & be mortified? hopefully he'd recognize the compliment & know that if it's just a crush, truly, it'll work its way out of my system eventually. LOL of course, on the other hand, if he wanted to ask me out... ; )
ANYWAY! happy thoughts!
so, after work, i came home & completely forgot that i had to stop at WM. so i changed into shorts & headed over there. but first i had to stop at the bank, and then i stopped at the movie store, thinking i'd watch a couple movies tonight. particularly, Thor, so i could crush on HIM for awhile. *laugh* i stopped for thai for dinner, then WM to get some hummus & meds & cat food (angel was hungry). as i was walking thru WM, my pants were pretty much falling off of me - this is a good thing, in that it means i'm going down another size, but it's also a bad thing as ... well... i don't want to be one of those People of WM. :| agh! so i picked up a pair of shorts in a smaller size for our trip to chicago. DEFINITELY don't need to be worrying about if my shorts will stay up while traipsing thru the zoo or museum or city! *laugh*
when i got home, i popped in thor & settled in for movie night. i was about 1/2 an hour into the movie when there was a knock at the door. i wasn't expecting anyone - leyton's staying at mom's since phil & jen have a vb tourney tomorrow, so i thought maybe they were stopping by. it turned out to be my dearest cousin-brother, bret!
in an interesting twist, see the note above regarding roommates... *laugh* he might be staying for a little bit, but i'm not sure what he wants to do yet. i'd like to help him out if i can, tho! : ) he shared what's been going on w/ him & i fixed him a pizza & cleaned up the guest room for him - new sheets & blankets for the bed, got him a pillow, all that, and then he went to bed. oh! before that, tho, he found a shirt in there that i thought had been lost! so, that was cool.
texted a bit w/ my friends casie & erin. i think erin & i are hanging out next week, which should be fun. i have missed her!
didn't get much of Storm Front read, but maybe tomorrow after bret & i have our talk. i rented john carter & we bought a zoo, both of which are due back tomorrow, so i need to watch those... and maybe go to mom's to hang out w/ her & leyton for a bit...! but now Thor is over & i think it's time for me to hit the hay & have sweet dreams of cute boys whose smiles make me smile. : )
what made you happy today?
ttfn!
thanks to micaela & marianne for the lovely happy things with which to end the week idea!! : )
