all i have to say about this book is 117 chapters!? really!? was it reeaally necessary to use 117 chapters, over 1400 pages, to tell this story? cuz i just finished reading it and frankly, i think 57 chapters would’ve done just fine.

now, i’m going to run out and rent the dvd to see if they picked the same 60 chapters to cut as i would’ve.

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. ~Albert Schweitzer

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity…. It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melodie Beattie

2. while watering my plants, i managed to lock the cat that eats the plants in the room with the plants.

3. i haven’t checked my google reader for a few days and now there are over 200 posts. fortunately, most of them i read just for the pretty pictures.

4. i was going to clip the dogs’ nails, but was too lazy to do it. maybe tomorrow

it's snowing again

i’ve been doing the yoga. i don’t do it well and i would never do it in public, but i’ve found that it helps keep my general anxiety from blossoming into hysterical panic. so, i do it pretty regularly. last night something in my hip that had been tight all of the sudden was not. it was the weirdest thing. now my hips are too loose, you know, and i’ve lost all control of them. all day as i walking around i felt like i was shaking my ass like a big ol’ hussy. that is, until me and my milkshake slipped on some ice and i had to limp home like an unaplegic.

so silly
