"Even the moon has days she doesn't want to show her face."

I worked today from 9-3 and the first 5 hours were boring as hell. But in the last hour I had an older lady ask me in a studdered voice if we had any jumpsuits. She managed to tell me that she was going bowling tomorrow and didn't want to wear what she usually does. For the next hour I helped her shop. We picked out some pants and a jacket (which was her favorite thing) and then about 5 shirts that all matched it that she could wear underneath. She had recently had a mastectomy and I think she also is developing Alzheimer's because her short-term memory was not very good. She would try on clothes and then come out of the dressing room to see what I thought and in the meantime I'd go and find different sizes for her. It was actually pretty fun. I ended up staying about 15 minutes later than I was scheduled because of it, but I certainly wasn't just going to leave her after all that.

Well, when I was crossing the parking lot to the car, she honked her horn at me and got out of her car. (This wasn't easy for her, she was already tired and sore from shopping). She just wanted to give me a hug and she told me she loved me. It was really sweet and made my day.

From there I went to the store and bought stuff for a nice dinner for Heart. Unfortunately he had eaten a lot of taco bell previously and I guess he wasn't very hungry. But, he did eat and said it was good and *I* enjoyed it so I cannot complain. I even made caramel apples for dessert.

The whole purpose of the dinner was to hopefully set a date for our wedding, but that didn't really happen. We did decide for sure though that it would be in Colorado. After that, I have no idea. I don't want to do anything by myself because I always just feel that he's just going along with whatever I say. I really don't care when the wedding is, I'd just like to actually have a set date so that it will actually happen and not just be one of those things that we always wanted to do and just never got around to it. I'm not trying to rush things or anything, but it just feels like after being engaged for over six months, you should have some sort of idea about when you're actually going to get married. It's not something I can just throw together in a month or whatever but I guess my goals and priorities are not exactly the same as Max's. "It'll happen," I'm told, but what is that supposed to mean??

"Jersey Girl" was a really cute movie. It was more sad than funny though which is something I was not quite expecting. Glad we rented it tonight though. I'm really sleepy now and glad I have tomorrow off. We should clean. The house stinks. Don't know why or from where, it just does.
