so it looks like today will be 8 hours of alternating which hand gets to be warmed by the heater whilst the other attempts to maneuver the mouse. this office doesn't just have a draft, it has many drafts. at least they gave me a heater to put under my desk.
i love weekends. i like to make lists of all the things (mostly choreish things) that i will accomplish on my blissful saturday off. this saturday i made rhubarb pie (first pie ever!) and peanut butter cookies. then some friends came over and remarked that every time they come over i've made something. it's a sense of accomplishment, like i'm slowly conquering the art of cooking/baking. i still don't understand how to properly use spices though.
i wonder how many friends you can have where you really have time to cultivate the friendship and make it worth something without overloading yourself/your time. in the past year, a bunch of people have sort of come out of the woodwork and i've become friends with some really great people. it's definitely an answer to prayer because it's hard to have friends that live in winnipeg who i don't get to see very often. this has actually been a really big stretch for me, because i don't like meeting new people, i'm not very good at first impressions, and i usually end up wishing there was a trap door underneath me. but the end result is that phil and i have a pretty good social life, which (and you'll probably laugh) was actually was on my list of goals of 100 things i wanted to accomplish (you know that one we wrote in grade 12). "still have friends and a life when i'm married". sorry mom, but you inspired that one. i just think life is easier with friends.
