because i'm too restless to be productive...
it took me over a half hour to eat a cupcake this morning. you may wish to know why i was eating a cupcake so early in the day, but too bad for you. i dont feel like explaining. so instead, you get to hear why it took so long to eat. after i took my first bite, i realized that it was probably the messiest cupcake ever. so, i set it down on my desk, walked in my too-high heels to the bathroom to get some paper towels, and then came back. upon arriving, i realized that setting the messy cupcake on my desk meant creating a messy desk. ew. so i set the cupcake aside on a paper towel, cleaned the mess, and then proceeded to take another bite. which, of course, made another mess. it was like one of those bad cycles you can't seem to get yourself out of. eat cupcake, make mess, clean mess, eat cupcake... i could have just not cleaned the mess until i finished the cupcake, but having a new (open-ish) cubicle means that everyone can see what i do. hence, the cycle. needless to say, attempting to throw in "writing emails to people named nicole" in the cycle was a disaster. (yeah, i actually had emails from 2 different nicoles today. it was exciting! and a little confusing, too! *winks*)
so, my darlingest darlings, that is why it took me a half hour to eat one silly cupcake. it was worth it, though, because rarely do i get to eat sugar for breakfast. t-minus 20 minutes until it kicks in and i start getting hyper. that'll be funny. too bad i didnt wear better shoes, or i could wander around our new office in a vain attempt to burn off the extra energy i know i'll have!
watched miss congeniality 2 monday night. it was mildly amusing, though there was no adequate love story. i strongly believe that any movie attempting to be a chick flick must have some semblance of a love story in the plot. so yeah, it rates about 1 star on my 5 star scale. although, i have to admit, it is very hard to get a 5. there are only 6 movies in the history of existence that have made it to the 5 star line: the three harry potter movies and the original star wars trilogy. not like it matters, cuz i'll pretty much watch anything. except starship troopers. that was a wretchedly horrible movie that actually ranked in the negatives, cuz i desperately wanted my 2 hours back after having watched it.
virginia this weekend - that'll be interesting. i'm excited to get to wear my pretty new dress and these damn shoes that i'm still attempting to break in. however, i'm not particularly excited to see the grandparents and the psycho offspring that danforths seem to produce. (i bet my parents are thanking their lucky stars that i have no real danforth blood in my veins! i'd be even crazier than i already am!) anyways, it'll be a weekend of fake smiles and nice-to-meet-yous that i wont really mean.
deepa's leaving this week!!! i'm so upset, because she just got here! *sobs* she can't help that her mom is sick. although, i sort of wished i hadn't asked her how her mom managed to get so sick, cuz it just ended up freaking me out... long story short, her mom's current illness is directly related to her having crohns disease, which, if you didn't already know, is what my mom has. so yeah, i've been emailing my mom every 10 seconds for no apparent reason. even though i'll see her in less than 4 days...
i'm trying to keep myself occupied until 10 am, when i promise i'll attempt to start working. there isnt much to do, honestly, but i'm sure i can find some slightly productive busy work. everyone is on vacation, pretty much, so it's making it hard for me to actually get going on my not-at-all-accounting-related project. knowing gordy, though, i'll probably have already missed my deadline. even though he never gave me one. joy.
a brilliant sunrise,
a kite in the air,
an abandoned leaf,
and crystalline patterns
