"hiiii"
3 things:
1) in case you didn't realize, the love of my life is almost 19 months old, weighs about twenty pounds, and has the cutest grin imaginable. despite all of her "no's" i can't help but love that girl. and my mom just said to me "I love you... you are such a good auntie" and I said "yeah.. i can't help myself". when I am Mexico I think I will be in heaven. Kids just get to me. Oh lord, I want one.
2) At the golf club tonight, at the dinner, there was a guy there that I went to high school with, one of the workers. While I was out attending to Hannah he asked how I was and I could tell he thought she was mine. "she's not? well... that's your husband, right?" ... "no! no! that's my brother.. his wife is at home in Southern Oregon." whoa.
3) letting go is really hard. i knew i was sentimental, but i never thought it would feel like this.

normally i would love sleeping in and skipping classes... but waking up at 4am to puke doesn't make it fun.
Stephanie and I are both just out of it today. I puked- she didn't. Today I have eaten a small bowl of cheerios and have drunk water. We went to the grocery store and it was like we were stoned-- we were laughing at the stupidest stuff and stephanie said "i'm glad i'm going through this with you!". Our bodies are tired.
yeah yeah yeah.

everything is all so bittersweet and strange right now. One thing in particular.
everyone's saying different things to me, different things to me
everyone's saying different things to me, different things to me
That test I talked about last Monday.... yeah, I did really poorly on it. Oh well, I guess.
I am spending today in total relaxation mode. I have stuff I should be doing, but I'm rewarding myself with actually getting my 410 rough draft done. it's 2:10 right now, so I have 50 minutes before Dr. Phil and Ellen. Holla!
This Friday my grandma is being honored in our homecoming chapel. She is receiving the Alumni Legacy award (a new one) for having so many family members who have gone to this school (She counts 11). That's pretty good for having three daughters and 6 grandchildren. That counts my grandpa, two aunts, one uncle, both my parents, two cousins (and one of their wives), my brother, my sister-in-law, and myself. hmm... that makes twelve. Maybe she didn't count my grandpa.
Anyway! so we're coming to chapel and standing up front with her while she gets her award, and for someone like me, that's pretty exciting. I'm going to make a onesie for my niece that says "Future alumna of _____ ___ College" so she can wear it on Friday. Holla!
So that is what I am looking forward to this week.
The Garden State soundtrack is pretty much perfect for a rainy, cloudy day. It makes me undeniably sad.
