Natalie picked this earlier, played with it for a while, and then said she wanted me to have it. This made me incredibly mushy happy.
Today at lunch, a gentleman who had just parked beside me asked if I had enough room to get Natalie in the car. I don't remember the last time (or even the first time) this has ever happened. That was quite thoughtful of him :)
A random 'hey how are ya' text, a passing smile on the street....simple things just make me giddy with glee.
Today was just aweful. I really just feel like screaming.
I've been trying to help someone out of a bad situation for a long time, and no matter what I do, it just doesn't seem like it's helping.
I feel like a fortune teller that declares the obvious... because, I tell this person over and over... this is a bad idea... and I mean that with every idea they have... EVERY IDEA THEY HAVE... I tell them this. I even tell them the outcome of their actions. And then sure as I'm writing this, it comes true.
I don't want to be right about these things, it's just that some things are ALWAYS a bad idea and that they have ALWAYS have a predictable outcome. The funny thing is that this person always sounds completely shocked when they call up to tell me what just happened.
I'm just at my wits end and don't really know what to do. I kind of have an obligation to do something.
Anyway, I know this is cryptic, it's not important, this is all for me to remember at some point later on.
So this photo? Well, as a teenager, I'd just write a song about what's bothering me and take it out on my guitar... so... here I go..
Speaking of which, Clarissa has asked me to teach her how to play finally. I'm so proud. We sat down for our first lesson tonight. She was actually switching chords pretty good after about 30 minutes.
Oh... and tomorrow should be great! We're getting to see Zoe (aka "The Little Poff") in 4D tomorrow!
