Just As i Am...

there was more than one lobster at the Birth of Jesus Christ? DUH!

just a wee bit random

Happy Birthday to my Bestest Friend ever... bRadley!
Happy Birthday to Barb!

"could you put her hands on her breast... and massage them, please"
"I feel it in my fingers. I feel it in my toes..."


If you haven't seen Love, Actually... get to it.
because Love, Actually IS all around us.

best.line.ever

not to mention it has the two most gorgeous english men i know it in...

Firth and Grant. yummo!





Sorry i couldn't find a bigger photo for this. But good GOD this is an excellent documentary. i've watched it twice. It's on HBO right now. It's a documentation of several girls at a center for eating disorders. and just so great. Not because it's done so well. not because it's a punch in the stomach. but because it's done so weel. and because it's such a punch in the stomach. it really makes me want to research, volunteer, assist, run, whatever... whatever it is that you do when you are drawn to a cause. It used to just be Cancer. but now i feel the need to... DO SOMETHING.

i thought i'd start with the good this time.

Now, on the bad:

Monday - took laken to the hospital
Tuesday - ok. maybe tuesday wasn't so bad after all
Wednesday - MAJOR car issues
Thursday - lots of snow. school is cancelled. finals are missed. rescheduled for monday. ACK! puke after my Toy Soldier Dance scene in the play...
Friday - pipes freeze in house. BUST. flood the garage with about an inch of water.
Saturday - get call from terrific landlord that they can't be repaired until they thaw. which means i have no running water in the house until... The WEATHER GETS BETTER!
Sunday - no show. it's a free day. but i have tons of laundry to do. and no water to do it with.

i cried alot this week. because i'm sick of it. tired of life's one-two punch

tomorrow's monday. and i have full faith that this next week can absolutely get worse before it gets better. i haven't showered in two days. now THAT'S something, right????
