Final Day

Today is the final day of NaBloPoMo. I can hardly believe that I've gone every day for a month. This is quite a feat for me. If I remember correctly, people say it takes 30 days to form a habit. So maybe this will be a new habit? Who knows....guess we'll see!  

I hope all y'all have a wonderful Sunday afternoon. I'm going to go decorate my apartment for Christmas. :-D

Quantum of Solace

Wow.  What an unbelievable night. My dreams came true, more than I ever thought was possible.

Suffice it to say, Quantum of Solace was amazing. Nevermind that I was on  the second row...but really, it was awesome. it was hard to follow at times, but overall I enjoyed the movie. 

My weekend is going fantastically. Things are good. Things have somewhat resolved themselves with SwingKid. in fact, we are back together. I feel good about this. What I love even more is that last night he told me that he loved me. Twice. That's probably the best thing in the world. The fact that I know that he loves me. Cause heaven knows that I love him more than anything.

So...I don't know where things are going to end up for the two of us, but I have good feelings about being with him again. Hopefully I don't eat my words. 

This comic came up in our conversation last night: 

Pretty awesome no? I love xkcd comics. So much fun, and now I must leave you. I have a paper to finish, rock climbing to attend to, and my hair to dye. ;) Love ya!!

Black Friday

1. My stomach is full, but content. 
2. PIE! is what I ate the most of on Thursday.
3. The yard thankfully has no snow on it yet.
4. Snuggled in my bed with  someone who loves me is where I'd rather be at any given time.
5. The smell of pine reminds me of Christmas.
6. Someone to hold me is what I need right now!
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to Quantum of Solace!, tomorrow my plans include dyeing my hair and swing dancing and Sunday, I want to see Bassbob!!

I love Thanksgiving. Yummy food, football, family, and friends are a few of the things that make Thanksgiving festive. (that's a lot of alliteration...)
