flowers; not dead

[benefitz]

Wow, I feel dumb. My mother was sweet enough to send me flowers, and I didn't find them until two days later. I wasn't expecting anything, so I hardly even glanced at the box in the mail pile. I found out by my mom asking me if I had received a package yet, because it was perishable. Luckily they still seem to be in good shape. She sent me lilies, my favorite. I swear, I have the sweetest mother ever. I feel extra dumb though. It seems like I almost never receive personal mail or packages of any sort (thanks for the valentine pussyofdoom!), so then not getting the full surprise by getting asked about it before I found it makes me sad. Still, pretty and fragrant flowers!

In other news, I was hit by a car today while riding my bike to dinner. I and my bike are both fine. I guess as I bicyclist in a land of cars it's only a matter of time...
