fruton


i've had a nice start to my holiday. i had a good day. hung-out with my dad for a bit this afternoon. worked on the standard. went skating in market square this evening. fun fun fun.

i realized yesterday, i am the only person in my family with a full-time job. oh how the tables have turned :p

tonight i got completely paranoid as i left for the evening that my house was going to burn down. sometimes i get these crazy notions in my head and they naw at me. it all started because i left the light on in my room and my new red curtains created an orange glow. i don't claim to be a rational person.

this afternoon i found myself singing christmas carols in the shower. that is so strange since i NEVER sing in the shower and because i've been really bah-hum-buggy this christmas. however, i couldn't stop myself from belting out "joy to the world" and after i'd finished all the verses i could remember i just ab-libbed with blah-blahs and nah-nahs. i sure hope my neighbours weren't home, because they would have totally overheard my performance. it was quite amusing, even for just me.

i would have to say, melinda is the best maker of mixed tapes i have ever known.

what once was hurt,
what once was friction,
what left a mark,
no longer stings...
because grace makes beauty
out of ugly things.

This is a really late comment, but I've been away from blogland for the last week and I'm sure you'll get it anyway because I'm assuming you get your comments sent to your email.

Anyway, just wanted to say I can identify with your fear of your house burning down. Every time we go away, I heave a huge sigh of relief when we get back and our house is still standing. Jason's big fear is that we've been broken into while we're away. Mine is that a fire broke out.
