Receiving an unexpected package from Edinburgh, Scotland, sent by my good friend, Paul.  He was even nice enough to make a CD compilation of some of my favorite country music artists.  He rocks!!  ;D

I can't sleep, but since I'm awake anyways, I've applied for 3 jobs and listed 15 books on Amazon.  :)

Just realizing that all the ugly hideous Vera Bradley stuff I got for Christmas, couldn't return, then listed on ebay, has sold!!!

My package from my sister arrived today!  Not really unexpected, but so nice to get.  Just seeing her handwriting made me happy.

Jenn,
Yesterday the sun came out for about 2 minutes (of course it was still raining). I was in the library, next to the window, and the first thing that went through my mind was, seriously, what the heck is that??? I let it blind me for the entire duration, then it was back to the clouds. Today I just closed my eyes and soaked in the sunshine as I was riding the bus!

Went to an interview and it's quite nice when staff already act as if you're part of the team.
But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

Getting off work on time! :o ;D
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in...
