Think happy thoughts, think happy thoughts

My parents got back from Vietnam last night. The house has exploded with all of the stuff they brought back, including piles of laundry (grr). Apparently they had a ball of a time; my dad keeps on showing me his pictures of seriously adorable children. *__* And the landscapes are gorgeous. They keep telling me I should go (and I kind of want to... except for the heat.) Anyhoo. The past couple of days have been tiring, with me making sure the house was ship-shape and then them coming home.

Our Nightblooming cereus (gorgeous rare single night blooming flower) is going crazy with blossoms right now. There was a bloom a couple nights ago, one tonight and another four on the way. It's kind of crazy because it usually only gets one or two a year. Anyway. I'm not into botany or anything, but I kind of geek out about this flower. Some people have orchids, I have (what I have nicknamed) the 'alien flower'. It's kind of awesome. /total nerd fail

ANYWAY... I'm dealing with the whole Panic thing the only way I know how... avoidance. That is, I'm trying to avoid the Jon/Ryan twitters and am instead listening to '3 little birds' on repeat. It seems to be working so far. Who knows what the weekend will hold. Seriously, I hope it's something good and happy. *crosses fingers*

To end on a happy note, one of my best friends in the whole world (we're practically like siblings) birthday was today and I made him chocolate chip coconut oatmeal cookies. They were delicious. The end.
