Saw a movie with a friend, B, on Friday...great movie by the way. I recommend Pan's Labyrinth to anyone who can read subtitles and pay attention to the movie at the same time. Being able to see more than what meets the eye should be a prerequisite too. Definitely any regular Opera viewer will enjoy; plus reading those surtitles will come in handy when reading the English subtitles in the movie. Oh yeah, I also had some Strawberry ice cream…which of course people who know me know I don't get often, but thoroughly enjoy when I do. I'm a glutton for strawberry ice cream and amazing conversation, amongst other things.
Saturday went shoe shopping…a little less enjoyable…but then went to the barn. Had a great ride, made J jump around like a crazy person after all my hard work. Was worth it completely! Then went with B to his company Casino night. Yes, my dress was fine besides the fact that said bra did not make it into bag when I packed my things earlier that day. Inconsequential detail…Had a BLAST Saturday night. I think I behaved…the jury is still out.
Sunday morning I wake up to my little brother and his fantastic eyelashes. The kid has all the luck. He wants to talk about what I did last night and why I'm wearing my "fancy" dress still. (It was like three in the morning, I was tired and VERY cold…I just grabbed the closet blanket and crashed.) Could anyone ask for more? I miss living with the folks just because of him...it's amazing how quickly he grew up. I'm paranoid that one day I'm going to wake up and he's going to be an adult; then I'll look back and wish I had spent more time with him. To think…I'm old enough to be his mother if I had followed family tradition. What can I say? I'm an overachiever.
I go home around 8:00 am, lie in bed for approximately 57 minutes…then get my butt up and dance around the house (and yes, singing at the top of my lungs) with my dog to Truman singing Morning Light. (Look it up, it's a great song.) My dog is running around me like I'm holding a steak above my head. I wonder what she's thinking. Probably something like: "I've got the coolest Mom who knows how to groove, this is great!"
I sit back down to finish this blog and now I'm thinking…I'm sure this can get better, but at this point I'm happy…and that's all the matters right now!
Now if I can only figure out how to double my 401k profit…
