A little bit about my day

I just had a paper conference with my writing instructor who I looooove.

I thought she was going to say, "This is kind of pathetic. I can tell you only spent a few hours on it last night." I had a whole defense worked out. I was going to explain that I didn't care.

But it didn't come to that. She liked it, called it "strong", laughed a little (though I'm not sure why) and smiley-faced my title: Save the Cheerleader, Save the World *smileyface*

Every way she wanted me to improve it was the way I wanted to improve it (i.e. "break into song") but didn't know if I should, it being a research paper and all.

But she's down for it!

She had really great quotes all over her wall in her office, too.

The one by Harper Lee: "Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing," rang strangely true to me. But as a claustrophobic I think I do love breathing because I many times have thought that I would lose it.

... Most of them were funnier than that!

You don't even understand how much I want a donut right now! I've been wanting one, or something like one, off and on for days and today as I walked home from the bus the air was FILLED with the smell of them - but no donut shop. Hmmm...

I'm starving!

The picture is of a new outfit - first skinny jeans that have fit me correctly since that trend started 5 years ago, and a new and improved plaid button-up from the little boys section.

I'm obviously misshapen!

Tom and I went shopping at Buffalo Exchange last night and spent some bucks. That's definitely the first time we've ever done anything like that, but it "needed to be done". (I can't ever say that literally with a clear conscience.)

Maybe I'll show you my new kicks later. Right now I "need" a donut. OK, maybe toast.
