Part the 54th

1. People who make me laugh--could be anyone at any time. Must always be ready.

2. Friends who push just the right amount (and don't leave bruises--just good will) I hit that deadline, by the way, S. And you?

3. Dad offering the leftovers he just warmed up for himself

4. Non-crazy people (and by crazy, I mean: Are you breaking up with me or not?)

5. Words on paper that I put there (I really wrote that? Huh. I'm a genius! Of course, I probably won't think so tomorrow, so let's enjoy this whil… Continue

Part the 53rd: Slow but steady wins the race

I'm eeking back into better spirits after a whole cauldron of weird crazy spilled on my beautiful bamboo floors. (Metaphorically speaking. The floors are fine.)

1. Being called both a treasure and a gem by people in different parts of my life on the same day. Do you think it's because I spend too much time playing Bejeweled Blitz?

2. A much needed phone call out of the blue right after a much un-needed phone call.

3. New book idea taking shape. A very lovely shape.

4. Back to our regularly-s… Continue

Part the 51st

1. That some of these student essays are WAY better then I expected (Yay learning!)
2. My friend Eric, who makes me fall off my chair laughing more than once a day
3. Sometimes answering the phone is good (That doesn't mean I'm going to do it more often, by the way)
4. That I am smart enough to not over do it.
5. That I can say #4 with a straight face even though it's TOTALLY not true!

Part the 50th: Weekend Edition

Now how did it go and become Monday already? I have no recollection of anything after... Wait. That's not right. I remember everything. I just don't know how it went so danged FAST.

I'd just like to take a moment to thank Christopher Columbus for landing, um, I was going to look it up and sound really smart that I knew exactly where he landed the old boat, but I'm suffering some serious brain exhaustion. Or brain death. Or something. I couldn't figure out what Wikipedia was trying to tell me.… Continue

Part the 49th: The ZZZZ Edition

1. That my dad came and closed the windows and doors. Now, you are thinking either: A. Penny should be able to close her own windows or B. There is no B, actually.* But it was very moist here this summer, down by the water, when I opened the old windows (windows so old they had weights in them) and they swelled open and stuck, like they'd been painted over. For the same reason, none of the doors closed. Yes, the outside doors. I just pushed them to. So! Now I have windows and doors that open AND… Continue
