tidbits

i can't believe i'm still up at 1:20am. it's been a very long day - exhausting both physically and emotionally.

i've learned a lot about myself this week, but i still have a lot of processing to do. for one, i definitely need a tad more structure in my life than not! not necessarily a 9 to 5, though i've never really had one of those, so maybe!

i also need to have waaay more grace and patience with myself. and also with others.

there is a pair of house finches that drink from the watering can on my 5th floor balcony. i may have put it there for them.

my dad is super cute. he gets really into whatever it is i'm talking about. he pretty much has a meteorology degree through me. today i started talking about starbucks stock, so he got online and did all this research about good old "SBUX" while we were talking. then i mentioned that i'm considering buying my friend's scooter, so he got online and started researching that, finding others that are cheaper and a too good to be true dealership here in southern California, etc. it was cute. when i mentioned it to him, he said, "i like to live vicariously through you." i laughed. at least he admits it!

i was reading Groody's Globalization, Spirituality, and Justice today. it's pretty amazing. every paragraph had me chewing for a while. not to mention it was pretty convicting. it's good stuff, get it!
