Rather than be the girl who never updates, here you go...

Post-o-Wonders 0r random meanderings through my mind:

1) I saw an American company perform "Death of a Salesman" - it was. It was. I've made my peace with it since the last time I threw myself into it.

2) I bought some colored pencils. And a little green journal with blank pages. Sometimes in the evening I write and then doodle in the margins with colored pencils.

3) I've decided I should be the boss - eventually.

4) I've also come to other conclusions. You know that moment when you realize that you've been going in a completely opposite direction than you ought. That's a good moment. I had it the other day and I danced.

5) My mom sent me some pictures - three of which were all taken on the same day - and that day is one of my best days of my entire life. Looking at the pictures is almost like being there again. So thanks to Mel, John Doe, Sam and Jon for now appearing in pictures on my wall (P.S. Jenny - you would be there too, but you left before we got the camera out)

6) My parents make me really happy.

7) I saw the ocean yesterday. I smelled the ocean yesterday. That was the best part of yesterday.

8) Old church ladies are the same everywhere - from Dallas to Dublin, they all encourage you to "join them after service for coffee and biscuits." Coffee in the crypt of ChristChurch Cathedral, no less.

9) It's a bad moment when you think "Alright tasty veggies - who wants to come home with me," in the grocery store. It's worse if you say it out loud.

10) I should find some coffee. And a cake. And that should happen...now.

Sounds like you're having a blast across the pond. I can't wait to hear all the stories that you aren't posting when you get back stateside. Take care and enjoy every second!

No one comments on your blog anymore because you rarely update it.

I had a nice birthday and thank you for the email.

I understand you are going to Spain and to Paris. I wish I had time to send you my "Texas...it's bigger than France" shirt. I understand that the French are really appreciative and supportive of Americans, particularly if you take the time to remind them that we saved them from being Germans...twice. Keep that in mind as a way to meet and impress people while in France. Also, have you stopped hygene and shaving in preparation for your trip? Let us know.
