i love how at book club, we've digressed from talking about the book to talking about why we didn't read the book :p i like our get togethers. they're good women and i value them a great deal. i also like the regularness of our time together and feel that it adds flavour to my life.

i also had the pleasure of having a visit with melissa in early evening. she's super special person. i like how we bounce stories and thoughts off each other. have i mentioned that she's getting married?? yup, she got engaged after 3 months of dating a guy she's had a crush on for several years. that makes my eyes sparkle. that's pretty rare, and i think of the book "he's just not that into you" when he says that things like that are rare, often the exception. melissa is exceptional :) so they will be wed on october 30, of the year two thousand and ten. it seems that weddings are in the air. i just received a wedding invitation for a friend who lives in red deer alberta, but it's on july 3 and i'll be in the south pacific at that time. i think i know of 5 weddings this year. it's funny how they say that people reach a point when all their friends start to get married. it seems i'm only hitting that stage now - at 30. i'm a late bloomer.

i'm really glad it's the weekend. it's my second last of getting up at 6 am. man, it's been a long road, and i've had to endure 2 long weekends without sleep-ins. i almost think there's no point in an extra day off if you have to get up anyways :S BUT i wouldn't trade those days at home. i think brendan will be glad when lent is over. he thinks i've been more sleepy and cranky over the last 5 weeks. he says that my life-style and my sleeping habits don't align, which is probably true, and has been for long before lent. i'm not sure what to do about that. i just keep hoping that i can hold out until i get older and don't require as much sleep. it seems that old people only need 4 hours of shut-eye. but by that time i'll have less energy and less activities. oh well, it's my burden to bear, and i figure that eventually it'll get better. that's the curse of the nightowl, and the downside to being an extroverted introvert.

my hands feel cold today.

can i handle the seasons of my life?
