forbidden fruit

i went out last night to see lacklustre at the scherzo. its amazing i made it there alive....

i first slipped on ice on david's porch and slammed in his front door, then on the way down the stairs i missed the last step and tripped. very gracefully of course. (sure, sure). these mishaps should have been a clue that i was a little off kilter.

in the car on the way to melissa's (who was NOT there by the way - grrrr!). we sat at a stop light for a couple minutes before i started to take off. david, who was ever so casual, said "umm, that was a red light" very nonchalantly. then we both clued in, that for some unknown reason i'd just driven through a red light. so strange. i have no idea.

while we were still a little stunned by that incident i realized we were driving down the middle of queen street with a mini van coming right at us!! it was the drive of doom!! amazingly enough, he claims he didn't feel unsafe in my car.

i went out for lunch with my family today to the lone star. our waiter totally tricked me into admitting it was my birthday. i can't believe i fell for it. ugh!! so he came by at the end and stuck something on my head and made me stand on my chair while they sang for me. i tried to be as good about it as possible and shook my bum while they sang (meanwhile in my head i'm thinking "holy crap!! i'm so embarrased").

exciting news!! al gave me a new coat!! he'd read on my blog that i was coat-needy. its very nice. i like it a lot. i feel more classy as opposed to the bummy my other coat used to make me feel. ah! its all in the coat i suppose.

well i didn't even make it to my rant i was storing up for today. oh well i guess it'll have to wait for another time.

i'm outtie. my feet are cold and wet, so i'm gonna go change my sox.
