today is my mom’s birthday. i hope she has a good one. on a totally not-so-unrelated note, flower stores should deliver on sunday. otherwise, people with sunday birthdays get stiffed.
anyway. happy birthday to my rock awesome mom.
it’s been a typical sunday, which means this: woke up at noon, ate some food, watched a lot of mindless tv, talked to my parents, chatted online, and tried to clean. the only difference is that this sunday, i actually did clean, instead of just trying. i did the dishes, most of my laundry (including sheets and towels), and vacuumed the entire apartment, even the stairwell.
i bought this skirt yesterday at eddie bauer when becca and irwin took me along to the galleria. it’s just an old gray cotton skirt, knee-length, sweatshirt material. it even has one of those reach-through pockets on the front, you know, the kind you can reach in on say, the right side and stick your hand out the left side. it was on the clearance rack for $15, and i figured “well, it’ll be good for wearing to the pool and stuff this summer.”
it is so comfortable. it is all i have worn since i got home last night. well, and a t-shirt of course. but god, it’s comfortable. i don’t mean to gush about a stupid skirt, but i am in love with my silly $15 purchase. i like that.
other than that, it’s been an up-and-down day. one conversation hurt my feelings, while another one brought an unexpected compliment. i started thinking about things that i haven’t thought about in a while, but at least i know that i have great friends.
