after a completely terrifying experience on wednesday, things seem to be settling back to normal at work.
i felt surprisingly normal today... jumpy here and there, but relatively complacent.
i woke up this morning, nervous of the day ahead of me, but so thankful to be alive, because i quite honestly thought that i was going to be killed.
thankfully, i don't feel as "traumatized" as people keep insinuating that i should feel...
i think i've had the opportunity to talk about it enough that it's sort of just out there now as an occurrence of the past.
and once everyone stops making a huge deal about it, im sure i'll feel even better.
if anything, my body just hurts, like i've been in a car accident or something... and my confidence in humankind is shaken, but life goes on and i'm definitely going to be much more cautious from now on and less trusting i guess, as sad as that sounds.
i couldn't sleep last night, so hopefully i will be able to tonite because i feel exhausted.
thank you to everyone for all of the phone calls, the txts, the myspace messages, the hugs, the extra love, etc.
it was really appreciated.
i love my family, boyfriend, friends and coworkers SO MUCH.
i am so thankful for you all.

shari and i had several "grape lemonades" (triple sec, three olives grape vodka, sour mix, YUM) tonite after work.
all i wanna do is hug her everytime i see her because i am so relieved that she and kevin are okay.
anyways, we got pretty drunk sitting there with chris, ray, kev and frank.
it felt awesome just to laugh and have a good time.
trav bought a bonfire pit this past week and it's fucking awesome... bonfires whenever we want!
fire is an amazing thing...
it is so peaceful to watch but in a different context, it has this overwhelming power to devestate and destroy.
tuesday night was the first red brick visit in a loooong time.
it was kinda chilly, but still nice to sit outside.
i got to catch up with jeremy for a bit, which was nice.
also, i convinced jess to come down after she got off work, which was awesome because i hardly ever get to see her outside of work.
anyways, we are going drunken bowling tomorrow night (friday) at midnight...
let me know by 5 pm if you wanna join because im gonna call and make a reservation.

we've been together now for about 13 months... and it still feels absolutely amazing.
time really does fly when you're having fun.
there is just something about having a boy tell you he's "crazy about you" that makes you weak in the knees.
and to be held so tightly that you can hardly breathe feels perfect, despite any physical discomfort, hah.
i wonder how i ever settled for anything less...

anyways, what is everyone doing for cinco de mayo?
cake concert is in a week and i can't fucking wait!
i wanna do more outdoorsy stuff...
i also wanna plan a trip up to morimoto and to the yuengling brewery...
and plan a trip down to urban outfitters too...
i also need to get my shit together and look at places to move out to because i've only got one more month at home, yipes.
life feels pretty exciting, in good and bad ways, as of lately.
ta ta with love.
