This morning I threw my leg over David's and asked for a compliment.
He smiled.
And then had to think hard for a while.
He finally said, "Well. You know you're amazing."
"Is that the best you've got?"
He shrugged, still grinning, "It's true."
I thought about it. I still wasn't satisfied. "Anything else?" I asked hopefully.
Then he said, "I had a dream last night that you were in a contest for the most perfect breasts. You won."
Now that's more like it.
On Sunday night, we had waffles and cake at my parents' house. We got talking about facebook and twitter and how blogs are "so passe" and how narcissistic people have to be to believe that other people really want to know what is going on in their lives. I am just narcissistic enough, apparently. In that spirit, here is my life by the numbers. I know you're dying to know.
After (at least) 307 hours I finally finished the top of my quilt and passed it on to my fabulous and talented Aunt Tori who will spend another
126 hours quilting it. (Bless her.)
For the last 3 days, Savannah has been running a
102 degree fever, and is home with me again today.
We have watched The Princess Bride and Pride and Prejudice and Blue Planet 14 times each and have plans to watch
6 hours of Anne of Green Gables today. (As you wish.)
We only have 17 more days of school which makes me downright giddy and wish that time could fly,
but only 10 days until the hospital Spring Tea benefit which makes me wish time could stop and is giving me violent panic attacks at random moments
like when I'm buying 22 yards of yellow organza and realizing that I'm going to need to hem it all,
and more importantly, that I only have 9 days to get the perfect party dress and shoes. (Time to call in reinforcements. David, this means you, love.)
Tonight we have 3 places to be at once,
1 of which is Caleb's wax museum rendition of Cesar Chavez.
I am off now to find 2 XL scout shirts and khaki's for David, who has a new calling with a new wardrobe to match, a bottle of temporary black hair dye for Cesar, and lunch and liquids for my feverish girl.
