Smurf of the Morning to You

Thanks to happy2beso, we have the Smurf Name Generator.

I am Phlegmy Smurf.
Princess is Meshugana Smurf.
Foo is Golden Flash Smurf.
Stephanie is Maximus Smurf.
Juliann is Ebola Smurf.
Kristofer is Man-Eating Smurf.

My god, I am loving this.

The cutest thing ever.

It's nice to be cared for.

The Fed-Ex person just came to my house. He had presents from kungfoogirl and thespian. They are totally awesome.

Stephanie got me the oddest stationery ever. It has little 'catch phrases' that I imagine are pretty bits of poetry that have become just slightly off-kilter in translation from Japanese. I can't wait to send surreal poetry notes to people. She also gave me this mechanical pencil and a little clip thinger with this cute little creature that, I admit, scares me somewhat because it reminds me of the forest spirits from Princess Mononoke. And those twitchyhead things gave me creepy nightmares. :)

Christina sent me a Playmobil knight in shining armor. And this knight even happened to have a chin-length black bob sticking out from underneath her helmet. I'm afraid to open the box, because it is so perfect.

Thank you, both of you. And C, ignore the rambling message on your voicemail at work. :) I'm afraid I wasn't making much sense.

The cutest thing ever Part II.

And then ennuiennui called, on lunch hour. To make sure I was okay. To ask, 'who are you today?' in that wonderfully soft voice that people who are close to each other share. And somehow, the fact that A. spontaneously came home unannounced (he had a dentist appointment) didn't matter as much.

Thank you. And I'm going out with zarabeth tonight, which will get me out of the house. Today is a good day.

If I were 5 years old: I would take a big bedsheet and wrap it around my shoulders and careen through my apartment complex yelling, 'I am, I am, I am Superman, and I can do anything...' a la REM.

Black Tuesday

I am as of yet unscathed.
There are no tears.
There is no heavy heart.
I am a scholar of life and this is a learning experience.

My Playmobil knight has a date!

She is standing on my desk next to Karate Smurf.

WORD.
