Little Bit of Nothing
I've seen worse...

Friday, February 20, 2004


Yesterday's weather made such a difference. I feel so much better. Thanks for asking.

I'm not sure about that goal of building an entertainment center. Oh, I still think I'm capable, but I looked at the price of pine boards and it would cost just about as much as one already built. I'll have to go back and look at some other types of material available. After that is done, I plan to save some of Jason's money and install new kitchen cabinets. I think that would be fun to do and necessary if I want to sell this house.

I used my new level with the lazer in it yesterday. That was pretty cool. It also finds studs. But I don't need that feature. I've already got Jason.

Speaking of Jason...He sent me flowers yesterday. Now before you say "Awww" and get weepy, you should know the rest of the story. I was surprised and very appreciative when I got it but I kept thinking, "Man, this is ugly. Jason hasn't given me flowers since we were dating and this is what I get. He knows I don't like mixed bouquets. It's got crappy carnations in it. Wait a second...it's the thought that counts, just deal with it and pretend they are beautiful." So I was torn between being thankful that he thought about me and mad that he spent money on something he knew I didn't want. So I tried to be thankful. When he got home, he looked at them and said, "These are a lot smaller than I thought. I'm sorry. I spent a lot of money on those...That doesn't even look like what I ordered." He went back online and looked at what he ordered. It turns out he ordered a bunch of yellow daisies in a clear vase. They were beautiful and a lot like something I would have given myself if it were socially acceptable to do so. So he called them back today. They said it was an older version of the same name. I think he should get his money back. They ruined the surprise. It could have been a special day. Anyways, Jason, being the peace-lover he is, is just having them send the right ones. I could have had the cash equivalent, dang it. I'll give the ugly ones to Abby. Oh, and if you are wondering why Jason would suddenly send me flowers for the first time in over 5 years, it's no big deal. I was just suicidal because I hate winter so much. He was trying to make it spring for me. What a great guy! I may survive February after all.
