Hello.

If there is one thing you need to know about me is that I LOVE Hello Kitty. Seriously. And, I need this. This would sooo annoy people at work. But, it is sooo cool.

OK. So here's the deal...

I had a great day today. Yeah, you heard me right. You haven't heard (read) words like that from me in a long time. Here are the reasons why I had a great day:

Work was steady

I stood up for myself and held my ground

I wasn't attacked by badgers

My favorite sandwich guy was at my favorite sandwich place

I saw some really nice people today

I got totally blissed out at yoga

I am totally loving everyone today, including that mean girl from seventh grade

Everyone around me seems to be in great moods

I spoke to my long-lost cousin, my not-so-long-lost cousin and my sister today

I'm planning an urban photo shoot with two of my dear photo friends

And lastly, just to restate an important point, I wasn't attacked by badgers


OK. So, here's one little teeny eenie problem. I usually run into bad Karma when good things go too good. So, I have this teeny tiny fear that everything is going to come crashing down. I hope it doesn't.

Love,

Agate

Schedule

For those of you keeping up with my official schedule, here's what's going on...


For dinner these days, it's been black bean dip and breadsticks. Yes, I'm again living the life of an advertising professional. But, it's even worse today. I haven't had time for laundry, so when getting ready for work today, I was forced to wear a sports bra under my top.


So, yes, I'm a tad busy. I'll try to keep in touch as much as possible. But, it looks like until July 4th, things are going to be craaaazy. I guess, if you'd like, you could send some bean dip and breadstick recipes. Right now, I'm going with chipotle hot sauce in the dip and garlic powder on the breadsticks. Any variations?

Love,

Agate

Huh?

I was looking at some old text messages of mine. I found one that I sent to myself. Obviously a reminder of some kind. Of what, I don't recall. There were three words in this message: Zombies eat cake.

What the heck does that mean? Why would I send myself a text message saying: Zombies eat cake? It makes no sense. Do zombies eat cake? Aren't they the undead? Wouldn't the cake just fall out of their rotted heads?

Anyone?

Happy Thursday

Yes, I am happy today. I took a surprise vacation day. It was lovely not to be at work. Yes, there was one drawback of being home. The annoying accident that befell me due slipping on a patch of mayonaise. Yes, only I would drop some mayonaise on the floor and slip in it. Yes, I'm fine. Yes, my elbow which I fell onto is fine. Sore but fine. Even though I have an aching elbow (yes, BC, it's the one I already broke once), I still am happier than being at work. I have spent the day working on photos. Reading (not scanning as usual) the newspaper, and just breathing. But, I guess my question to you Willow is if I know my arm isn't broke, as I can put weight on it and move it, and it just hurts, is there any reason for an x-ray?
