top row: Professor Plum (chad), Mr. Green (alec), Miss Scarlet (laura), the Lead Pipe (thad)
bottom row: Mrs. White (me), Colonel Mustard (sarah), Miss Peacock (amber)

i just have to say...this picture has some of the best faces ever. *cough*thad.

cool air round my bed
sigur ros drifts in my door
from the living room

warm glowing lights, i
hope it rains tomorrow and
that i sleep tonight

the night after i put up the pictures of gwen on sunday i dreamed she was alive again. i kissed her while ginger held her, she smiled her joyous smile and snuggled her face against mine, i could feel her fingers on my neck. her eyelashes on my cheek. but her voice...

i'm starting to forget her voice

care

what makes being this awfully sick well worth it? when a certain lovely man drives for 45 minutes and braves my terrifying germs...just to bring me soup and keep me company for a few hours. 2 evenings in a row. i'd call myself spoiled, but it's all still so new and unreal to me...so i'll just call myself blessed. :)

life lesson #8

make sure you really eat enough breakfast when you take your vitamins in the morning. because vomiting into a trashcan in front of a group of students outside a classroom is not the best way to start a long day of substitute teaching.

sometimes, i can be tricky

i had far, far too much fun pissing off the crazy aggressive driver behind me today. i also think i'm lucky to be alive.

yep

at a friend's this evening a tender spot on my heel had increased to real noticeable soreness. i looked at it and saw a small dark line...thereby figuring it was a splinter and i would just pull it out when i got home. a few minutes ago in my bathroom, i bent my leg into an almost impossible shape over my hip, took a pair of tweezers...and proceeded to pull out a straight, stiff black hair that had wedged itself almost a half inch into my foot.

i think it was pip's.
