the past few days for me have been hard.
mostly to do with my car.
an accident, totaled my car but walked away completely fine,
left my sister's car door open a quarter inch which drained the battery,
and it took 3 AAA guys to fix the problem,
leaving me stranded at the house all day yesterday,
and then today i had rosanna drive me to the DMV because i realized my license was expired,
only to notice that the expiration date was december 2010, not december 2009.

ugh.
i still got a new picture and changed my address to the pink house address.
it cost $22.
i thought i might as well make my trip worth it,
and plus, i dressed up FOR that picture.
makeup and everything.

anyway.
these pictures make me happy happy happy.
this is why i am posting them.
i basically blog-stalked jasmine, emailing her an intense note that declared my obsession with her work.  she emailed back and said that we should hang out, so we did! easy as that.  i felt like i was going on a blind date.  butterflies and everything.

she is an absolute delight.
we went to old town orange and explored.
i never get bored of that place.

I'm sorry to hear this month, so far, has been challenging. Who knows how or why these times suddenly appear. I pray the rest of this month feels like a holiday for you! Wunderful posting per the norm.

shan... so sorry about all of that. I loved this post though -- so real, so "life is sometimes crazy but move on and enjoy it" I like that.
And I LOVE ALL OF THOSE PYREX> and you.

So sorry all those things happened, but it looks like you had quite the adventure in Orange to make up for it! BTW how much did you just make me laugh when you said you dressed up and put on make up for your DMV photo! Thanks for being you!!

You delight me. How much fun did I have? Lots. Again, sometime, please… when our worlds will allow for collision.

Dear shan,
I have been following for some time but not commented. So glad you walked away unhurt. Perhaps you should take a defensive driving class? I seem to remember a post about another accident not that long ago. Take care
