toodldo_4julie: realization

---

i've discovered something throughout the past few months.

money, respect, title, 'stuff'... these are things generally earned by the receiver.

love is given freely.

maybe that's why someone can have little respect for a lot of the people they know, but have enormous amounts of love.

and maybe that's why when we love someone, we just keep loving them more and more because there's no limit to how much love we can give.

that's something special. something we'll never run out of.


i'm so in love ... and i'm glad that i'm smart enough to realize it for what it is and that i don't have to imagine life without him. i've also realized that being engaged doesn't really make much of a difference to anyone but the people around us, because when two people get to a certain point, even a ring can't make it any more special.

but i think i'm gonna make him change his name to mine, cuz i like how my name fits together so well. :P

i'm gonna go tell dennis that i love him. not that words are always necessary.



Mood: completely content.
Music: carbon leaf - raise the roof

just got back from the beach. i love the ocean.

my computer had been dead. it didn't respond, didn't even acknowledge the monitor half the time, but when i got back, dennis told me he'd fixed it for me in my absense!!! it's alive!!! YESSSSSSS!!!

*sigh*

the small things that cause bits of happiness.

i punctured my thumb (yes, another finger...) on a crab's shell while we were eating hardshell crabs... quite tasty.
not the punctured finger, i mean the crab meat that was inside the shell that i pierced my finger on.... yeah...





Mood: tired but happy
Music: carbon leaf - maybe today

toodldo_4julie: two very different things come together....

willy wonka! willy wonka! the amazing chocolateer.
willy wonka! willy wonka! everybody give a cheer.

there must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found, for when they placed it on his head, he began to dance around

willy wonka! willy wonka! the amazing....



it fits, it really does, try singing it together...



(and also: thumpety thump thump thumpety thump thump look at wonka go... thumpety thump thump.....)


i thought it was rather good. the movie, that is.

toodldo_4julie: the world is black..

zodiac died this morning. my eyes hurt. he was too young to overcome distemper, and had brain damage. we put him down to relieve him of further pain and discomfort, and now everything in this apartment reminds me of him. sometimes life is worse than unfair, it's plain cruel.


Mood: rather weepy
