happy to me!

it's my birthday. the end.
also, here is the best thing i have read so far this morning:
“We’re paying for both sides of the war [in Iraq and Afghanistan], and we’re going to go down in history as the dumbest crowd that ever showed up, because we had a resource that would replace OPEC oil, and we didn’t use it.” -- T. Boone Pickens

HAPPY TO ELI!

eli is 2

a right to remember

tonight i attended this event. it was truly heart breaking. performed much like the spectacular vagina monologues. it was extremely interesting. thanks to leslie for knowing about it and finding our lost way there!

on a much more joyful note, at the drive-in!!!!! hells-yes! undoubtedly my favorite album. just something about this album, 'relationship of command', blows my mind. the most amazing part is that its perfect for every wack-a-doo emotion i whirlwind through. angry? perfect. happy? perfect. giggly? perfect. dancing naked in the shower? perfect (and completed as of tonight). i usually continue to love bands, but am unable to continue listening to them years later, this band though has stuck it out. they satisfy my every need. i seriously don't even need a boyfriend when i have this album at my side! this is love. this is empowerment.

Vancouver Sparkles

i cleaned my shower/bathtub tonight. (hence the opportunity to listen to at the drive-in and dance mighty enthusiastically in the shower). when i lived in vancouver washington i noticed that their curb-side garbage cans say "Vancouver Sparkles", now when ever i think of something sparkling i say that slogan in my head. weird. i know. and thus it was said when i finished scrubben the tub!

because sometimes people need to be made fun of:

highlights of my morning

• Andean bear at the National Zoo had two cubs!!
• and apparently the Fort Totten metro station has raccoons. i kind of like raccoons. even though they are a little bit scary.
• Went to dinner with the Isaacsons last night. Marian and my favoritest G'ma Mickey made me an adorable little blanket!
• and Eli's Birthday is in a few days!!!! HAPPY 2 YEARS OLD!!
• did i mentioned i baked on saturday?!! i know!! i'm just as shocked! i made (from scratch!!!) adorable tiny red velvet cupcakes with yummy cream cheese frosting. that said, my heart almost stopped just from seeing how much butter and disgusting cream cheese and sugar make up my favorite new treat. disgusting.
