There used to be a time in my life when I would wake up in the morning and groan, because the sunlight wasn't supposed to be scorching my eyeballs, and the birds were chirping, somewhat annoyingly. To the Elizabeth five years ago, the morning was the worst part of the day. Why? Because being awake in itself was a morbid disappointment. If I could go back and say something to the girl I was five years ago, I'd say nothing. I'd remain silent, and after a bit of sighing and looking at the ground, I'd slap her silly. I wouldn't tell her it'd all be better soon, and I wouldn't comfort her. I'd tell her to wisen the fuck up and be thankful for what she had. That girl was so uneducated, in the typical everyday sense.
I feel I've grown somewhat in the past five years. The bitterness I felt has all melted away and puddled at my feet. I happily dance around in that puddle now, and I smile when I wake up in the morning. The birds chirp, and it's no longer annoying. It's calming in the sense that everything is still right in the world, no matter how fucked up we, as human beings, make it seem. The sun is a welcome figure in my life, because it means it's not raining -- and all we really have to worry about is a rainy day.
The Christmas spirit has fallen upon me. I've already bought gifts for the creek family, and my family. Since I won't be in North Carolina for the holidays, I will end up posting your presents in here, as they are fedex'd to you in the pretty wrapping paper of a fedex box. It will be good to be with my family, and I may even call Colin and his father Tom, and wish them both a Merry Christmas. Or I could just send a card and leave it at that. I haven't decided yet.
As for my living arrangements, I've moved in with Michelle, Kerr and Colin. We have a full house now. Michelle is sleeping on her bed with her laptop on her chest, Kerr is puttering around and making noise, and Colin..I'm not sure where Colin is, but I'm sure he's sleeping like any normal person would be at 6:44 in the morning. Then again, I guess we're not normal people, now are we?
Again, happy birthday katie_holmes. I hope it's a good one. Here's your present, I hope you like it. I thought it was funky, kind of like you. Also, happy birthday to christina_a. Poor baby, you're not 21 anymore :(
I'm going to finish drinking my coffee now.
