in other news (nostalgia again!)
“Through these eyes / looks like I’m home tonight”
—Smashing Pumpkins, LXv1.0, etc.
It’s that time of year again! Nostalgia time. Get out your lawn chairs and soak it in, folks.
No, I don’t really intend to do a long memory-lane post or anything this time ’round…just realizing it is indeed that Time Of Year (already May 5…!) and all that jazz. Most pointedly at this point it has becoming strikingly clear to me what an incredibly GOOD decision I made ~8 years ago…that is, the decision that landed me with Jeff. Blah blah blah you’ve heard it before but really and truly this year has only underscored what luck we had in finding each other. I won’t go into it but I do feel pretty dang lucky and somehow…fortune-seeking?…in having, in the end, relied on my heart to guide me, even as I’m all about logic the other thousands of days of my life.
None of that expressed adequately what I mean, but, whatever.
Nostalgia time! Bachelorette/other hijinks for and with Sarah/True Ten this weekend will satiate a lot of that. I think I’m also in a mood like this again thanks to Chloe graduating (!!!). I kind of can’t believe she’s graduating. I was looking through old journals collecting funny quotes of hers and realized she was, like, SEVEN YEARS OLD when I was writing that stuff…meaning I was 18. Meaning…high school was a Long Time Ago. Wow.
Again, failure to express myself adequately here but, whoa. 30.

Double dentist date-appointment tonight. Woo hoo! We know how to do Cinco de Mayo in style ;). Luckily D and I had lupitas and margaritas last night preemptively.
Out.
