a cause for celebration

oh happy happy day!

when i woke up i was debating if i should get a weekend train pass and come home for my two days off in a row from work (and take my laundry with me). i woke up to a messy room and a deep desire to take a bike ride along the lake. i decided i better stay in evanston this weekend. then suzanne and husayn came back from there lunch date and right away started packing to go to batavia. it was perfect timing because i had already put my laundry in and this way i could actually save some money and dry them at home in batavia (i usually let my clothes air dry, i mean a dollar per load to dry 'em? please honey, i'm cheap).

my dear sister sara finally cleaned out her car. and does one know what she found in between the two front seats? none other than the dixie chicks cd that has been "missing*" since she dropped me off at the airport last SPRING! (*i put "missing" because i knew it was in her car, just didn't know where)

on our way to dsw i got to listen to my favorite dixie chicks cd (it's been over a year since i last heard it) and at dsw i found a pair of shoes i've had my eye on/looking for on SALE!

the day has been good.

p.s. amia is starting to take steps like crazy!

You don't like the sound of the truth
Coming from my mouth
You say that I lack the proof
Well baby that might be so
Tell me what's wrong with having a little faith
In what you're feeling in your heart
Why must we be so afraid
And always so far apart

Swing me way down south
Sing me something brave from your mouth
And I'll bring you
Pearls of water on my hips
And the love in my lips
All the love from my lips

Sorry I missed you. I didn't read your comment reply until late Saturday, and I was so wiped out from that weekend all I was ready to do was go to sleep. And Sunday was too nuts - when's the next time you're home? Carolyn and I will be at Piron's house from June 7th-14th housesitting/grandma-watching, so feel free to stop by and hang anytime then.

raine!! what can i say, i'm sorry we missed each other. i got to see karen though, so that's good. but i want to see karen and you together, at the same time (like when i e-mail you guys, together at the same time. like a family, like we used to). i may be in town while you are housesitting/grandma-watching piron's (haha if i were to leave off the 's of piron's it would be grandma-watching piron..haha) or right before that. see you then? no. i will see you then. and little karen too!

Hahaha. Agreed. Hey, my graduation party's probably going to be June 18th. I expect you there, ready and willing to write poetry.
