TILT 10-7-10

• Listening to Sheryl Crow - Really, really listening. Her lyrics are beautiful, honest and inspiring.
• My Theories of Personalities Class- i love it, i'm the annoying girl who can't shut up in class ( i can't help it, i enjoy "actively" participating)
• The return of .... DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES!! ;)
• PB & Jelly sammies. Have you guys tried those lil premade round ones? yummmmm. i just wish they came in a whole wheat variety!
• Blog Friends- Is it weird that i feel so connected with alot of you girls and wish we could be friends "in real life"? I know this is real life, but, i mean like in person, lets go shopping and have lunch, kind of friends :).
• Almost every night when i come home from work, Rob has my pj's waiting for me, folded on the bed :).
• Painting my own nails & toes- I used to waste sO MUCH money at the nails salon, i have recently rediscovered the joy ( and $ saving) of doing it myself.
• My friend Melissa's wedding- It was absolutely beautiful, i felt much happier and more emotional than i expected, standing up there as one of her bridesmaids.We've been friends since the sixth grade..... I'm proud to say i have amazing friends from my childhood. I NEVER want to let them go.

Tell me, tell me, what do you love today???

Remember TILT= Things I Love Thursday.

TILT idea from Ms.GalaDarling

Get Up, Stand Up

Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction.

- Anne Frank

I need to tell myself this quite often.

I can be SUCH a lazy bones.

Getting stuff done always makes me feel good.

Even if it's just crossing little things off my to do list.

to me......

love is



being silly



listening



understanding



compromising



empathy



doing crossword puzzles together on the plane ride



being ridicoulously excited about what the future holds



having nicknames for each other that other people think are absolutely ridiculous :)



love is when your girlfriend strolls into the bathroom & decides to take a poop while your in the shower; it's when you only get slighty annoyed. i can't believe i just wrote this; hope your not so completely grossed out that you decide to stop reading my blog!



love is cuddling up in bed with your girlfriend & the laptop, excited & just about to check out some paint colors for your future apartment. It's when her best friend calls and they end up on the phone for an hour.Its when the call ends way to late & its time for you to go to sleep so paint color choosing will have to wait. It's not minding one bit, knowing she hasn't had a chance to catch up with her friend in awhile. Love is wanting her to be happy, always.



love is not minding that when he gets together with his brother they turn into rowdy eight year olds, it's thinking it's cute. (most of the time)

love is when it's no big deal that your over an hour late to see the flugtag you were really excited about, because she CAN NOT leave LA without having pumpkin pancakes at the griddle

love is previously "disliking" cats, but now find it hard to sleep without her cat (squirrel) snuggled up against your legs or feet.

What does love mean to you?
