One of the best parts of my day was seeing
gremmie_goo get attacked by pigeons. I guess when they're in a park aid they don't like to be waved at.
We also went to Wal*Mart and then after we had a nice workout at the gym. Thank you, Goo! I had a nice time.
After she dropped me off I was going to make dinner, but when I lay down on the couch I kinda fell asleep until 10. :P I guess I was more tired than I thought. The past few days have been busy.
Last night at work a friend of my co-workers came in to visit with her daughter. They were all sort of chatting away and they were talking about this book called
The Secret, the friend of my co-worker had just bought the book and talking how it's been on Oprah ect. Anyway, I said to the lady that my mum has asked for this as a birthday present (her birthday is on March 9th). I continued cleaning and the woman and her daughter sat down to have their lattes and chat, we talked for a bit and I just said that I wanted to do something nice for my mum for her birthday, but probably won't have much money to do so, still I can try (and when I said it at the time I never intended what happened next). When the lady and her daughter were set to leave she comes up to the bar and hands me the book. She said that she wanted my mum to have it and to have an awesome birthday. I stood there like a moron and just stared at this lady whom I'd never met before in my life and her giving me a $30 book for my mum's birthday. When I told her I couldn't accept it she said she wouldn't have it. It took all my willpower not to cry in front of her and the other customers (well, really customer). I told my co-worker that when she saw her next to please tell her again how touched I was.
Sometimes people can just totally blind side you with a kind act. You never know what may happen.
My art course is going well, so far I'm working on an eccentric portrait. I really like doing these things because I can basically do whatever the hell I want. I'm doing some sort of wood nymph, faery, goddess person. Haven't quite decided who she is exactly. Anyway, I'm having fun painting all the leaves and stuff in her hair.
I've seen a few people remark on how
Lost just isn't that great any more and I kinda agree. Goo and I were discussing this earlier, and I'm getting annoyed with it and I'm sad that it's losing what it had. I think that they've just introduced too many new characters and then killed them and then introduced more new characters. I feel as if they're at a stand still and we're not really getting any answers or learning more about the main characters that we were originally introduced too. How come Locke can walk now? How did he get in the wheelchair in the first place? What about Hurley and him being in the mental institution and then Libby being in there as well? I dunno, maybe we'll get all the answers, but I don't feel the same way about the show like I used too. I hope it picks up again. :)
Meanwhile I think
Supernatural has ate my brain. I haven't felt this way about a show or fandom for a while and I'm glad I have something else to obsess over. ^_^ I love meeting new people in fandom. I've met some really sweet people over the past year from the
NCIS fandom and some really sweet people from the SPN fandom as well. And of course I still am buds with a lot of the LOTR and Orlando peeps from the past few years. Fandom is love. <3333
