moo cow

this has been a long day. i can't even believe that this morning i was at next. i experience this sensation usually when vacationing, or when a lot of variety has filled one day, so i'm quite surprised that i'm feeling this way on a regular sunday.

i went for a long bike ride today around town. when i got home i was dripping from sweat and decided to go over to leo lafleur across the street. it cost $4.15, so i really wanted to make the most of it and stayed in the water way longer than i wanted to. then i laid on the pool deck in the sun, i think i dozed off because i woke up feeling really peaceful. i got home just in time to get redressed and comb my hair before heading over to michelle's place for dinner. then later to the butlers place. it was really nice. bob was a prime example about how i can make people laugh purely thru my story delivery and not from the content.

i was thinking today about how one time i was rambling to david about my name – if i married someone with the last name lesley, i would just go by "lesley" and not "lesley lesley". he suggested "lesley²" but i told him "no, i've already thought of that and have decided against it. seriously, i've put a lot of thought into this" and he said "of course you have. you put a lot of thought into everything". hm. it's true, i think about everything to great depths, and i wonder if that's a huge problem. perhaps i shouldn't think so much and just do. but really, i don't think i overthink things because of worry or fret. i think about everything very throughly because i like to, and quite honestly because i haven't got anything else to think about. i wonder what other people spend their time thinking about. notice how this paragraph started as "i was thinking...". tell me what consumes YOUR mind most of the time?

i had some pepsi at michelle's tonight. it was the first time i've had caffeine in a month. i'm totally awake. i think i'll be a while before i get drowsy, which is fine because i DON'T have to go to work tomorrow :D

i need a new beginning.

Well, that explains where Michelle was today! We missed her at the cottage.

Funny, I never had to worry about marrying someone with the last name aphra!

My sister's finace was talking about this last Christmas...he wants her to change her email to CA squared. Now that she is married to him her initials are CA and she is a Chartered accountant.....anyway I've thought about it too. and surprised Joanna one time by saying she wouldn't move in the alphabet at all when she gets married. I wonder about it too.

I think A LOT too. I'm not sure that I think as deep of thoughts as I'd like to though....
