Duchess

Duchess...our bunny girl...has a new home.

Last night, Sheila came to pick her up in a torrential downpour. Duchess and I played a lot this week and we spoiled her with treats and fresh veggies. Every time I looked at her I cried, a few times uncontrollably. Last night I held it together until the front door closed and then head buried in Dre's shirt, I made a snot rag out of his polo. Duchess will be living with 12 other bunny-sisters and brothers. She will be spoiled rotten, as Sheila has invested in heated water dishes and she will get to run around all the time without any cage-time. I couldn't ask for a better person to adopt her :) I knew Sheila would be a great when she sent me photos of her bunnies and where Duchess would be living. She even promised to send me photos of Duchess, just as soon as she takes them :) Sheila even offered for us to visit if we like. She's perfect!

Changes...
I will post photos soon. Duchess we will always love you, even if you live somewhere else.

Dear 20 year old self...

Dear 20 year old self,

What would I do differently? Nothing really. You really learn best from experience, sorry, but that won't change.

Try not to cry so easily or worry what other people think.

Phrases you will become quite familiar with:
"Can I get that in writing?"
"I'm sorry you feel that way."
"This too shall pass."

Don't drink gin. Don't move out of state for a 50 cent pay raise. And the 10% discount isn't worth opening another credit card.

Follow your heart and your gut. And give second chances, but thirds.

And lastly, the dishes can wait. Have fun!

Tomorrow

Tomorrow. Full of expectations, smiles, promise, sunshine, new perspectives, hope, laughter, smoked salmon on an English muffin with chive cream cheese, capers and onion, and best of all you will be there.



My quote of the day: "Anyone can be interesting for 2 minutes."

Super Size Me

Finally watched Super Size Me directed by and starring Morgan Spurlock; couldn't help but make a trip to the Golden Arches to follow. I know it should have inspired me, but really, it made me crave the nuggets, the mystery meat. Surprisingly, the nuggets are only about 200 calories, so I didn't feel too guilty eating all 6. Although, I don't think I could eat Mccy D's everyday, let alone 3 times a day for a month, one box of chicken love won't put me over the edge. I would definitely recommend this documentary, followed by a Big Mac.
