i dreamt i saw you walking
up a hillside in the snow
casting shadows on the winter sky
as you stood there counting crows
one for sorrow, two for joy,
three for girls, and four for boys,
five for silver, six for gold, and
seven for a secret never to be told

there's a bird that nests inside you
sleeping underneath your skin
when you open up your wings to speak
i wish you'd let me in

from "a murder of one" ~ counting crows
i love this band, they make my eyes tear up!

i'm beginning to lose track of what i've updated with and what i haven't. i'm either going to have to give up my diaries or work out a schedule to update them.

Roni is the biggest freak in the world and more frustrating than ever before but also so funny i don't know what i'd do with out her. Plain White Tennis Shoes "Creep her out" and now so do the plain white shirts, dresses and outfits in general. She has nightmares about them chasing her and trying to eat her so she says, and though we valiantly tried not to snicker, we were accused of "laughing at her pain!". Next, she informed Angel and i that she will be building a brick wall between us so that we can no longer kiss as she doesn't like it. This was AFTER the line she drew failed to stop the kissing. And heaven help the parental figure who comes between her and the brown skirt she wanted at the store yesterday! i was truly ready t chuck he right off the over pass if i heard one more word, sniffle, whine or heavy sigh over the damn brown skirt!

i stopped at my parents' to show Brat the outfit we got so she could approve it since Roni's have to wear it to Brat's baptism today, and also because there would be others there to pay attention to the child. i simply couldn't take much more of her! She suggested that she spend the night and Brat and i cleared it with Mom and it was ON!

Angel and i left there, picked up some movies, ran into Toaster Boy's best friend, Nathan who offered up pizza so we put in our request of a large all cheese with light sauce. Then we ran on to see The Jaunty Little Elf who is now unemployed and stays home, selling her belongings to the neighborhood children for pennies with free white chocolate dental dam at the door, and her lovely roommate with the pink hair and clothes that speak to me, Funky and Talented Sam who can laugh, walk AND puke all while throwing bottles! i have to say, right now, that i am in love with Mr. Modelo who is the sweetest cat i have seen in forever . . . please, pretty please, some one who likes cats contact the ladies and take him in! He is so sleek and beautiful and well mannered! If i had a bigger place i'd take him without a thought about it, but i have two whole rooms in my home . . . the living room and the bedroom.

We fed them pizza so they would have a break from slurping Raman and it's salty goodness for a night and then relieved them of two bags worth of stuff including a salad spinner and a Whee-lo™ one of the coolest toys EVER! i couldn't put it down!

Let me see . . . The week has been pretty slow, not a lot has happened and i am still floating along in a cloud of bliss and loveliness and the feeling of perfection increases with his proximity to me. We're getting into the groove and we're still not bored so i'm thinking this is only getting better. Damn, he's a dream!
