a musical based on the lord of the rings? are you kidding? That gives me the same creeped-out feeling as strip malls on farmland.

geh.

i bought a coffee this morning, brought it to work and poured it into a mug to drink it so i could get at the roll-up-the-rim that much faster.

didn't win anything, big surprise. But who can calmly sip coffee when there might be a car under her lips?

thursday the stars aligned in a bad way for about an hour. At the end of it, my brother had totalled his car, my sister had been bumped off her flight from Halifax, my dog had run away, and I had second degree burns across my hand. It worked out okay, i guess- brother walked away with whiplash (no car, and out $5000.. but it's just money), sister made it in the next day, my dog came back three hours later, and i'm down to two bandages. But it was just a reminder about getting complacent and forgetting how great my life really is right now.

This steady flow of normalcy feels so mundane and painful sometimes, but there have been times when i longed for routine to be my biggest stress. Every uneventful day is a gift.
