HAPPEE QUARTER CENTUREE BIRTHDAY TO MEE!
HAPPEE QUARTER CENTUREE BIRTHDAY TO MEE!
so i got a new tagboard, and i want that marquee thingy. and i'm shocked at myself that i actually got the tagboard "installed" (i dunno the html lingo that would go right here) in my code. i was sure i'd have to do trial and error several times before i got it right, but i got it on the first try! now, how do we do that comments link. hmmm...
i'm having a lot of fun building my board though. still not quite sure i wanna share it, but i'm starting to get in the mindset of things. plus, i came off super mushy in the last couple entries and i'm not sure i need the whole world seeing that. it was such an emotional outpour that was very spur-of-the-moment. but i guess that's what this is for, huh? it's just that certain friends know only certain parts of me and almost no one knows everything i think about. i don't even express how much i like my gleen to my best friend. although she can definitely tell that he makes me ultra happy. :)
it seems like my blog thing is gonna be very random as that's mostly how i think. oh no, is my blog gonna end up like cici's? well, if it does, that'll be a compliment, cuz i find hers to be extremely entertaining. hmm, minus all the bowel movement talk tho. cuz i'm just not that obsessed about my fecal matter or habits.

lovely lunch today at Louise's Trattoria in pasadena. i'd recommend it if you want to spend $46 (!!!) just on lunch. otherwise, Cheesecake Factory across the street is probably just as good or better. but super huge servings even at lunch. and the alfredo was so light and yummy. so yeah, food was good, just not for freakin $46 for 2 people!
so the whole building gets off early for labor day at 3:30. but i get paid per hour, so if i want my money, i have to stay till 5:15. poo!

oh my gosh, i sooo love my boyfriend lots and lots and lots! [but i'm not supposed to say the L word, so don't tell him i said that!] i'm so happy i wanna cry! he's been sooo super great with me even after i get mad at him for stupid crap and he's coming all the way here to pasadena to take me out to lunch because it's my birthday! i feel so super special! especially after i've been whining and feeling kinda down cuz i wish my friends would do something nice for me cuz i always do something nice for them. and here he has done all this special stuff for me. it's like valentine's day when i knew he was gonna cook me dinner, but he had this whole spread for me with a gazillion candles around and an extra special meal outside on my patio. it was so wonderful i couldn't eat!
it's so funny cuz for a guy who's never been with a girl, he sure knows how treat one well. i guess it's all the presumptions and the "supposed to be" ideas in his head. he has lots of idealisms about life, love, and relationships. sometimes it gets in the way of reality and he has trouble understanding why people behave in a manner in which he doesn't think they ought to be. or why things happen that just don't make any sense. but other times, he carries himself to do what he thinks he's supposed to do. so with his notion of what a boyfriend is, i get all "spoiled" and pampered and feel special. so yay for mee! not that he spoils me all the time. cuz he puts his foot down too. but for my birthweek, it's wonderful to be spoiled!
hmm, that felt good... maybe i am getting the hang of this blogger thing.

-
"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."
~unknown
"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."
~ Abraham Lincoln
"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
"there comes a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that they'd be happier if we'd let go"
