much better day for me.
got up with time to take a shower and get everything taken care of that i usually need to in the morning. at the very least, i look and feel good thanks to the shower. maybe it's not as hard to shower in the morning as it usually seems... even managed to grab a cherry pie flavored larabar for breakfast. going to have to remember to stock up on those next time we go to trader joe's.
buses actually running and on schedule so i made it to work on time--barely, but still. have taken to attempting the daily crossword puzzles in the red eye paper so actually reading the red eye and then working on that keeps me occupied during a very boring commute. unfortunately, i can usually only do a third or half of the puzzle which makes me feel dumb. the answers usually aren't too complex of words, but my mind just can't think of them. ;_;
going to stop at borders tonight to pick up another jimmy buffett book. i've been meaning to for years and just haven't gotten around to it. the real motivation comes from my dad asking me this past weekend if i have any more books by buffett; he apparently really liked the two i had. i gave him tim dorsey's hammerhead ranch motel along with a few others, so i hope he likes that as much as i did and they tide him over until i finish where is joe merchant?. the fact he was even interested enough to ask for more makes me want to buy the books i'm missing so i can bond with him in a sense over something i love dearly. might be a good lead into introducing dad to the music as many of buffett's songs involve his characters and/or stories related to them.
david will be coming home today so that in and of itself is enough to put me in a good mood. after previous discussions i finally feel better about things even if they were stupid concerns. i'm back to that nice positive mode about things. since he's also got a job interview tomorrow and wanted to go out for dinner regardless of how it goes, he agreed to check out a local thai place i found out about today. didn't think i'd get to go there so soon, but how can you really turn down $5 pad thai?! ^^
