there's a little spark in my heart tonight. surprising after a ten hour shift {and the fact that i've been awake for almost seventeen hours}. i came home tonight to a clean house, my best friend putting left over pad thai on the stove, and a foot rub. and fablehaven, and two-month old chocolate wedding cake. and a flannel shirt and pj pants.
i'm grateful today to live in a place where i could get a job three weeks after i started looking.
i'm thankful for a husband who pays attention, works hard, and gives our relationship everything he has.
i'm thankful for pajama pants.
and a left over onion {hello, onion rings in barbecue sauce...}
i'm thankful for an over-zealous coffee salesman curious about my religion.
i'm thankful for parfaits of white peach and blueberry frozen yogurt stacked with strawberries, granola, chocolate and yogurt chips.
and mostly pad thai and left over chip crumbs.
on another note, i can't wait to fry these onion rings. if this turns out, i might have found an excuse to buy an extra onion every few days...
also, i can't get enough of the wet engine by brian doyle. it's honestly literally one of the most beautiful and heart-wrenching things i've ever read {and if he read that line, he'd probably either get a good laugh or roll his eyes at my ill-timed overused metaphor}. i love the man and his stories - and his collection of other people's stories.
and he's given me a massive new respect for hummingbirds and heart surgeons.
...now for my onion rings.
happy march! spring's that much closer for the portion of the world that believes in seasons. for me, it's that much closer to the time when the growing heat will justify my frozen yogurt consumption just a little more.
