I am

Today I am...
  • wearing a medal with St. Claire on a white gold chain around my neck
  • wearing "sexy" new boots (can I say sexy in the sentence right after talking about wearing a saint medal??)
  • glad it's "casual Friday" and wearing jeans
  • getting super excited to see one of my absolute favorite people on the planet in less than 24 hours
  • excited to have printed the boarding pass for my flight tomorrow morning, and finally, after quite a few trips by air this year, have a window seat
  • sipping water, because I haven't made it to the staff room yet to make tea
  • glad that I don't generally wander out to the kitchen in the mornings in my pj's. It seems my roommate's boyfriend flew in a day early to surprise her, and so the alternative sleeping arrangements we'd arranged for the weekend (he's staying with my parents) couldn't quite be put into effect, and he was sitting and chatting in the kitchen with my other two roommates when I emerged (fully dressed for the day)
  • wearing a silver ring with a "blue lace agate" stone in it (that I bought a few weeks back at Lake Louise and really love)
  • feeling some joy, some peace, lots of excitement, some fear, and some uncertainty
  • wishing (just a little) that I wasn't one of those people who has bizarre dreams really often
  • remembering the "Fountain Tire" commercial where the guy gets on the plane dressed for Hawaii, and realizes he's on the wrong plane "goin' to Winnipeg" (makes me laugh, since that's where I'm flying to tomorrow morning)
  • going to fight with Best Buy about my ipod, and see if I can get them to replace it a week early, since they've provided absolutely terrible customer service, and it's now been seven weeks that it's been gone, and I'd really like to have an ipod for travelling this weekend.
  • going to pick up some money my brother owes me, and a suitcase from my parent's house
  • mostly smiling
  • sporting really nicely done nails, thanks to a very girly evening last night watching the season premiere of grey's anatomy
  • having a hard time getting warm
  • really grateful for "George" and how much he's shortened my morning commute to work
  • starting to get hungry, and thinking it's time to get on with some work that's sitting on my desk!

See you around!
