i don't flirt well at 6 in the morning;

therefore, men, please don't try to hit on me then.

and don't attempt a pick-up when my snowboot wearing, cozy hat adorned self is carrying the carton cage-free eggs while trying to not slip on the ice.

thanks for the approach. BUT could you next time wait until ive recently applied burts, or until after 8 am, or heck-- wait till i've set the eggs down.

much appreciated.

christmasishness

historical tracking sheds light on the possibilties of the itty-bitty baby jesus NOT being born in the calander month of december. but im glad celebrations can still be had. merry merry. hope the dumplings were delightful and the wax from the norwegian head dress did not scald and small ears. ...or large ears for that matter. merry christmas and to all a good night. truly.

just now

will be working most friday nights now... i recieved the following text on my way to work: "you. pour house. now." i wanted to be driving the other way. i wish that i had fabulous eye- makeup on and cute shoes. i wanted to wink and have three guys offer to buy me drinks or plane tickets to their home cities. i wanted to laugh with the doormen and bar tenders about how it is always amature night friday's in lodo. i wanted to get a sweet meter spot that i could menuver into w/o parallal parking, when you don't have to pay for the meters anymore. so, i drove to work. and i called the number on my way, becasue the road was icey and i should probably not text in the car anyway... (though im not bad at biking and texting. oh, dear.) i bid them a good time as i imagianed the images moreso that would fit with the background noise i heard so clearly.

i arrived at work. and left again. i was to pick up on of the girls at work. i played mom with the van and we returned to the house. i laughed with my coworker and the girl. now everyone has gone off to bed. traveling away or sleeping amongst the blankets in their bed. it will be a good night i think. the tree is in the window with its colorful lights illuminating and christmas is in the air, oh and there are truffles in the office.

no alcohol, but there are truffles. yes, i do think i will be able to manage this friday night.

the phone works again.

surely one of these days it will bid its forever farethee. apparently not quite yet. i mean i t was resurrected.

"my"

really? is it mine? i don't know if i agree. though i continue to use the terminology. hmmm. perhaps, im a selfish brat at times. yeah, at times i am. i ain't no liar. ha. another discussion. another day.

consequences.

he was nice enough. they both were. just doing their job as they attempted to get me to sign a form i had yet to encounter in my lifetime. (the guys who were to tow "my" vehicle from the undisclosed fastfood joint's lot.) ___these fingers kept pressing the wrong buttons as i was working to find possible contacts for the questions that now arrived with this new situation. legally. what are my rights? can they really block me in? apparently so. and the towing company can hook up your car with you in it? they sure can. **bottom line. i was parked illegally. and i will have to deal with the consequences. and i will. but through this entire ordeal-- as annoying as it is... ((because im a rebel. goodness... and i wasn't able to access 4-wheel drive to hop the curve, because i don't have it--)) i witnessed people loving on me. really, truely. we care. and we will defend your cause. and, we will stand by your side no matter the outcome. thank you, thank you. that is what i picked up. so. jess, jeff. you are my heros. meghan, you will be my hero. all of those who will wake with a matter-of-fact tone of my voice within your reciever, the texts, the offers, the direction- thank you. dealing with firsts, is a lot less terrifying when they are persons who care surrounding one- and i'm grateful.-- and i'm grateful for the lessons about integrity and being called on it. first by a towing company and secondly by an awesome god. no. it doesn't feel lovely. yes, it is rather annoying BUT... i would rather deal with it now and battle it out with my opinionated stances and justifications than wait another bit. so, fuck- it is an integrity issue. i wonder what the implications are? these conseqences. the results from this lesson. yep. *oh, and look for the tow man in church, if you go. he said he might return. take care. live well.
