and great shoes...
unique and comforting all at the same time.
I went to Cheyenne and Laramie this past weekend to see friends! It was great! I've missed alot, but love seeing everyone there!
I talked to a friend tonight that we haven't talked in months - always so fun to catch up.
I tried on a pair of shoes that I'm supposed to be exchanging, but they are realy cute and I'd like to just wear them. can I hold out?

accomplishments
I got new tires.
I'm getting a massage tonight.
I'm going to the gym after I write this.
I'm still flossing my teeth.
K and I bought tickets to Hawaii.
We're recycling.
I'm using my love language of personal mail.
I'm responding to emails (at least 2 today).
One of the computers didn't really crash.
I'm preparing for my first adoption in this job! It will be in Feb.
I held my tounge.
I let some tears slip out.
I hung out with my new friend.
I laughed with my sister.
I left messages for friends, trying to keep in touch. I even got to talk to couple.

hurt feelings
what do you do with them? especially when the person/people have no idea that they hurt your feelings?
Mostly it just stinks to be forgotten... especially on the big things.
crappy apologies sure don't help hurt feelings either...
I just found out something I rec'd almost 2 years ago was actually a loan not a gift... I wonder if they thought I was stealing it, all along I thought it was a birthday present... this is not what hurt my feelings just a surprise I got today.
