Lately I feel like a seedling that caught flight on the wind...no plan, no purpose, just drifting into some unknown.

Faun Fables - I'd Like To Be

Woof Woof

Unconditional love comes from one source, or so it seems. That source would be a dog, or in my case a 7 lb. Shih Tzu. No matter how crabby you are at the end of the day, how disgusting you look, how broke, how bad you effed up...your dog is still there gazing up at you with sparkly unassuming eyes. The only expectation is maybe a slobbery kiss, some hugs and if things are going really well, a chunk of cheese.

V-Day

Sheesh, there's so much pressure in this one day. I have mixed feelings about the whole darn thing. Am I for or against? It seems that those all lovey dovey are for the day. The disgruntled hard up on love folks seem most bitter. I suppose I'm somewhere between the two. Romantic at heart and yet my love is far away. Days like this are just a painful reminder of distance. I did wake up to this heart shaped box of chocolates hanging on my door. Ok, it was from the folks in the office of the apartment where I live, but still it was nice! Reminded me of grade school when everyone would exchange funny little cards, saving the really special ones for that one true love :)

I feel dorky.

Yes, yes! Love Love!

Batten Down the Hatches

As if there weren't enough to worry about! Now we have a disabled spy satellite plummeting toward our planet. It could arrive come late February or March. Hmmmm...I'm not so sure I like such a tentative scheduling. I'd at least like to greet it properly, with the right music and a nice supply of wine.

*Cheers*

Shameless Self Promotion

In the rare event that someone actually stumbles upon my little corner of cyberspace, check out my design on Threadless. Give it a $5 if you like it! This design has a bit of a personal story behind it, as my grandmother named me hummingbird when I was born. This probably explains why I love music, but can't carry a tune!

Face Diary

It's amazing how telling a person's face can be...years lived evidenced through laugh lines, scowl lines...scars. Do the eyes smile up, or cower down all weepy like. I seem to have a small crease developing between my eyebrows, which means I'm either perplexed or confused most of the time. Hmmmm...what does your face say about you I wonder.
