here comes the sun!

I've been walking around in a perky Legally Blonde-ish way all day. I think it's because it's beautiful and warm outside, and I'm thus wearing short sleeves and no coat for the first time this year. Wednesday Lunch today was held on my front porch so we could enjoy the weather. :) The windows were open in the apartment, so Gandalf heard my voice and started meowing and pushing on the window screen. Then we went upstairs to see him, and everyone witnessed what I call his "flopping"- he spontaneously collapses on his side in a cute way so that you will pet him. :) I think he was very pleased to have so many visitors in the middle of the day.

My sister reports that my parents are still angry about my California trip. I'm at a loss. I am so, so tired of feeling guilty over this. I complied to their requests (at great cost), and they're still mad. The most frustrating thing is, I know they'll never change their minds about it. Even when I come back alive and unharmed, they're going to hang this trip over my head as proof of my instability for the rest of my life. I want to tear my hair out.

Thinking about that is a quick way to destroy a nice day, so let's talk about something else. I just won these shoes! My favorite pair of work shoes fell apart last week, but I found these and they're almost exactly the same. So that's a blessing. :)

I can't think of anything else.
