I think the one thing I am going to miss about this house is the shower... not the shower itself... the pressure sucks, and it's just a run-of-mill apartment type bathtub (no good for bubble baths)... but there is a small window in the tub enclosure, and I like taking a nice hot shower with the window open... the cool, fresh air mixing with the steam... it's invigorating... I also like standing in the shower for an extra minute or two, looking out the window, watching the sun rise over the buildings on the horizon, or the leaves on the trees in the courtyard waving and shuttering in the wind... hot water streaming down my back... I breathe in the fresh air, cold on my face, while the hot water warms the rest of my body... such a waste of water (Mr. David Suzuki would not be pleased), but so nice and relaxing...
It's like a nice, warm hiding spot for me... I can just stand there and let the opposing temperatures rush over me, and my mind is clear... it's a good place for thinking... it's also a good place for singing to myself at the top of my lungs while washing away all the tiredness, all the layers of worries and to-do lists that pile up in my mind, rinsing away, down the drain along with the soap and grime...
The shower/tub at the new house does not have a window... it's in a little enclave in the wall of the washroom... there's nothing special about it... same type of shallow, plain tub... standard white tiles... but the fantastic thing is that it will be ours. I'm hoping that in a few years we'll be able to afford to renovate the washroom, and put in a nice deep soaker tub, and some pretty tile on the walls and floor... then I'll be able to have some luxurious, long baths... and I won't miss my window so much...

tonight when I was on the 5S I was looking around at all the other people shivering away in their seats and it occurred to me that everyone looked very, very sad...
when I got off at my stop and started walking towards home it also occurred to me that I was only projecting my state of mind onto the other people...
it is time... home is where I am... where we are... where love lives...
not where they are...
I'm done.

Happy talk-like-a-pirate day!

Apparently it's talk like a pirate day... who knew?
Lisa forwarded me an instructional video from you tube today... how to talk like a pirate... quite amusing...
That is all.

There's something oddly satisying about the sound of my paper coffee cup tapping against the faux-cherry-wood laminate of my desk as I set it down.
The fresh brew inside is hot, it warms my hands and lips... sending a wave of good morning down my back...
I am still so tired... but I really do enjoy the sound... I am a peculiar one indeed...
I really do have a caffeine addiction I think...

I don't have anything too exciting to write about, but I felt like taking a break, so here I am...
I have been rolling lumpia all morning, and I just had to get out of the kitchen. (Lumpia, for those who don't know - as if anyone reads this- is like a Spring roll crossed with say... a taquito (spelling??)... it's a Filipino 'dish') Our BBQ is tomorrow, so while Eric is at work, I'm at his place making food today. When he gets home later, we're going to go to M&M's and pick up the meat (blech...) and then to the grocery store to get the rest of the veggies and stuff... So today, I still have to make my Chili (vegan style) and I think I'm going to make spicy black beans with creole style rice as well (also a vegan dish)... I know Steph is coming, and she is also vegetarian, so I think she'll apprecate the variety... also, some of our friends are muslim, and since the meat dishes aren't Halal (spelling???), I'm sure they would like the other choices (besides salad and veggies and dip)
So that's my terribly exciting day today... No Sims... lol... Tara bought me the Sims online the other day, so guess who's even more addicted now?! heheh... I'm going to pay her back on Monday for it... so yeah...
I dunno what else to write about... so off I go...
Weeeeeeeeee....
