Mom's Birthday

I'm here at my mom's house for her birthday. Poor mom received an empty box, and a paper doll. Not kidding. My present to her hasn't come in the mail yet, so I cut out the picture, and put it in her card. My sister's present wasn't in the box. It was the last one left and was on display...and they just didn't put it in the box. Hope she at least liked her cake because that's about all she got!

Nothing new really going on. Went to an interview yesterday. Had a follow-up interview in the afternoon. I'll take the job if they offer it, but I really don't want it. Me - Receptionist...not going to happen. I'll do it...and I'll do a good job at it...but I DO NOT want it! And parking downtown sucks!

On my weekend without Gabby JC and I went to my work Christmas party, and it was fantabulous! We had so much fun! Had a little too much to drink, but that's what you get when you decide to drink the spiked punch all night.

We went and saw The Fountain. Weird. That's all I have to say. Visually beautiful, but weird. All you acid takers should really probably see it. On Sunday we saw Blood Diamond. One of the best movies I've ever seen. I'm being a little bit biased. I love my books filled with history and my movies filled with angst. It's right in line with Beyond Borders and The Constant Gardener. I love those kinds of movies. I realize that they're very "Hollywood", but that's the way it has to be done for most Americans to even want to pay attention to what's going on in the rest of the world. Besides can you get any better than Leo with tons of new muscles and an African accent. I can never remember the other guy's name, but love him too. He was so awesome in In America. And Jennifer Connely has NEVER looked prettier. JC didn't know who she was, and when I said Labryinth he got it, and said, "Yea...she's come a long way."

I'm very nervous still about going to Dallas. I can't wait for Christmas. I can't wait to be employed. (That's what my mom wants for Christmas she said...for me to find a job.) I can't wait to have Gabby out of school for a couple of weeks. JC has one Christmas party this Monday, and another on the 28th. A very busy season...especially compared to last year when we weren't together.

I have plenty more to say once the New Year works its way around. This year will go down as my "Crying Year", and I hope the next one will be filled with laughing...out loud.

Pretty Decent Weekend

I went out Friday night, and....I met someone. We really, really hit it off. I think some of you who know me really well would be shocked at how good looking he is. His name is Paul, he's 29, and he's only been in San Antonio for about a week. Anyway, we talked all night, I drank a little too much, and so did he, so the night didn't actually end that well because there was an argument between him and Andrea. I thought he was a little rude, and also maybe he would be scared off. But we were texting last night, and we're going to meet up next Friday. I really do think he should apologize to Andrea first though. Although, I'm so green with this dating thing...I almost think that's too much to ask when you're getting to know someone. I don't know, you tell me. Saturday I pretty much did nothing but recover. And then Sunday, Andrea, Gabby, and I went hiking. We did a Level 4 out of 5 trail for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how many miles it...
What is the definition of love? Some anonymous person asked me this in the 'comments section' many blogs ago. A hard one to answer...everyone has a different answer...I am slowly admitting to myself that I have never truly been in love...I have felt deep affection for people, and I have had my feelings manipulated, and I have definitely been in lust...But I honestly can say that I've never been in love on my own terms...I'm so ready to be swept completely off my feet...

Christmas 2005

Christmas was kind of rough on me this year...JC and I had broken up, I had just had my tonsils taken out, I had been deathly ill for months beforehand, and was really kind of just all around desperately depressed...as I'm sure you could tell from previous posts, but this little person with me in all these pictures somehow makes everything better...
