My brother went to a Coldplay concert last night.

I think I hate him.

I watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s though. It was all right…but have you noticed that movies just really aren’t all that magical anymore? So often I want to get all wrapped up in a romance – really care if the hero and the heroine end up living happily ever after. I don’t know if it’s always been this way, but it seems to me that chemistry is gone, and the love stories that are developed today are way to unbelievable to make your pulse race. People just don’t fall in love the same afternoon they meet. They don’t even become best friends and spend every waking minute together. There can be a strong connection, certainly – but why does a movie always have to end with “I know it’s really sudden and all, but I love you!”

This morning I got up at a decent hour and cleaned for a while. I spent a while looking for Sarah’s phone number. Eventually I had to call her mother-in-law. I think I might start a telephone directory for my soon-to-be new home. Because I can’t find anyone’s phone number without using my mom’s list.

Anway I’ve lost my point with this post because mom elbowed her way in front of me to wipe the whole desk down with vinegar. Now the computer stinks. I don’t understand vinegar, at all.
Like, at least use bleach or something. It stinks too, but in a clean way, not a pickled way.

Peter and I traded cars last night. I think I might go take his car out for a spin. (Don’t tell him…)

174 days!

Wow, here’s me, and I’m blogging. Either I’m way too bored or my boyfriend and all the rest of the crowds got to me. Who knew people would clamor for my writing…?

Life’s been pretty good. Busy mostly with work and getting ready for the wedding. Not that there’s a ton to do there – just the odd thing. Last big thing was going out and ordering the bridesmaid dresses. I know I love the dress we picked – I think everyone else does too…or at least I hope.

Oh! and I bought a car. Here it is, roughly, minus the tinted windows and the nice rims.

Annnnd….I could say more but my parents are in Oregon, I left work sick this afternoon but now I feel better and I have a million things to do.
