Can I just say...

Best life ever!

I think of things every day that I want to Blog about... but I'm so busy, by the time I sit down in front of the computer, I'm too tired to write. I actually called in "DONE" (ding, Giddy's done) to work today... yep, done.

"I won't be in today, I'm done working this week."

"oh, I'm sorry are you sick? "

"well, I don't feel great... I'm going back to sleep."

"ok, hope you feel better..."

For anyone who doesn't know, I just want to say that my life right now, in this very moment, is wonderful and amazing. I couldn't have planned it so well.

Work is tough (both physically and emotionally demanding right now), but I really enjoy the people I work with (staff and clients alike), and overall, I really love my job.

Faire has been amazing. Two weekends into it, and I am literally having the time of my life. I have so many wonderful, loving, supportive, hilarious, amazing friends, words can not express how much I love you all. This year, for the first time ever, I have no stress regarding faire, just a simple love of life. I have the ability to enjoy a freedom I've never known, and to do it with warm, caring, laughing eyes watching without questioning my motives. I have been taking the time to stop and smell the roses, and appreciate every single moment for exactly what it is.

Shoes & Passes

The Short Bus was just standing next to me while I devoured the last Harry Potter book... when I realized he was grunting, and generally making some odd noises.

By the time I looked over, he was just pulling off his pants... over his shoes. Thus, standing there in shoes and a t-shirt... in perfect Archery form.

I think its time for me to make him some passes... because we all know the rules... shoes and passes... that's really all you need. Though... I might just give him a glow stick for the photograph.... ya know, its only right.

Homeward Bound

Most people are fully aware that my best friend (of 20 years!) has been working on a cruise ship for about a year now. Not having her here during this time of my life has been really difficult, we went from talking daily, to weekly... if we were lucky. She has enjoyed the experience, but being away from family and friends has also been difficult for her.

Yesterday, she called while I was at work. I usually don't answer my phone while on the job, but I just had a feeling, and conveniently, I was in a position where I could answer. It was the greatest call ever. She's coming home on Monday!! Yaaaaaaaaaay! This is an amazing surprise, she wasn't due back until the end of September, and had even mentioned extending her contract until early December.

This officially marks the second time in two days that my co-workers (and the students) have seen me jump up and down screaming (yeah, try doing that while your driving a van in Friday afternoon rush-hour traffic)!

I'm so excited!!
I definitely have some wine shopping to do!
