Haha...I'm so narcissistic, but I love how my eyes look in this picture.
Today was Rachel's 22nd birthday. I had lunch with her and she opened my gifts to her. She loved the sister scrapbook. =) Her gift bag might just have been the coolest thing ever. We ate lunch at Pizza Hut. yummmm
I worked 3:30-9:30...read more of Nothing Feels Good. There's a whole section of the book devoted to Chris Carrabba, and let me tell you, I only want to meet him more after reading it.
Nick called me tonight and I talked to him on my way out to the BFE to meet up with Rachel & friends. It was sort of a one-sided conversation of me freaking out about various things in my life. I do that alot...and I tend to never let people actually speak when I'm talking with them. I apologize.
It's 3:55 am and that may somehow have an effect on my feeling that this might be one of the best entries I've typed in a long time. But that's how I feel right now.
Jim and I are together. I have a million and one feelings about this, but I know it's what I want and what he wants and I reallllly do feel it's what God wants for me, too. I think that's pretty awesome. =) Being in church with him last Sunday was one of the best feelings I've had in SO long. It's so amazing for me to think backwards and realize all the singular events in my life that have led to us getting together. It's all soooo crazy that it only affirms that this is all God's plan for me unfolding before my very eyes. I don't know what's going to happen or how we'll feel when all we'll have been able to do is talk online or on the phone for God knows how long...but I know it'll be great to see him again when I do, and to create memories piece-by-piece along the way. I have the feeling that beginning a relationship long-distance will be easier than converting to long-distance in an already-well-established relationship, because the majority of the relationship lies ahead of you, rather than behind. There's so much to look forward to.
I think it's my lack of sufficient sleep that has helped me spill all of this out, and I'm letting you all see this because I want you to know how real this all is for me. Overtiredness gives me a new sense of clarity sometimes, and that's where all this came from. I think I sound like a completely different person, but it feels so good to feel like I'm saying things more eloquently than I've ever been able to.
...I think I should stop here.
