i had a splendiferous time with deb yesterday! lots of food, lots of talk, lots of comfort :) deb bought the cutest necklace at tiffany's for herself. for a girl who never stepped foot into a tiffany's until this quarter, i'm getting assailed! i never quite understood the appeal of tiffany's, but it's working its insidious power on me too. just the tiffany's color gets a girl all mushy. what the hell? i don't get it. it must be evil. but ooh, that green color is so pretty! ;) deb and i also bought matching clogs in different colors. oh, except her feet are smaller. shorty. :D

howard visited on saturday too. this involved a lot of food. mmm. animal style cheeseburger, animal style fries, soda, krispy kreme, safeway...oh god, i'm salivating again just remembering. and i would like to mention that key lime krispy kreme donuts are amazing. excuse me as i wipe that bit of drool off the spacebar. howie will be back next weekend for...get this...the cal RCCs vs. stanford RCCs ultimate frisbee game. hahaha! i'm sorry, that cracked me up. and yes, i am still pimping howard, so get those requests in quickly. ;)

jason mraz is seriously so cute. i'm sure he knows this, but he had almost all the girls swooning after him. although i had to leave before "you and i both," bea-honeypie left me a vmail of him playing that song :D i loooove you!

another episode of chrispy-klutziness: in lecture today, i bent down to put something back in my bookbag...and smacked my forehead onto the back of the seat in front of me. paloma assures me the bruise is not noticeable though. whew. =P this forehead bruise is in addition to the bruise i created by smacking the back of my head into the ceramic soap holder in the shower stall on friday night. it's a wonder my brain is still functional; thank goodness for crania.

i wish someone knew what i'm doing. especially me. and yes, i meant to use those tenses.

it's nice to have people who are willing to listen :) i love you all. keep a watch out and knock some sense into me if you think i need it sometime.

"You and I Both" -Jason Mraz

was it you who spoke the words that things would happen, but not to me?
oh, things are gonna happen naturally
taking your advice, i'm looking on the bright side
and balancing the whole thing
but oftentimes those words get tangled up in lines
and the bright light turns to night
until the dawn it brings
a little bird who'll sing about the magic that was you and me

'cause you and i both loved
what you and i spoke of
and others only read of
and others only dream of the love
the love that i love

see, i'm all about them words
over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards
more words than i had ever heard and i feel so alive
then you and i, you and i
not so little you and i anymore
and with this silence brings a moral story
more importantly evolving is the glory of a boy

'cause you and i both loved what you and i spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see me now
then i'm almost out of...
i'm finally out of...
well, i'm almost finally...
well, i am free

and it's okay if you have go away
just remember the telephone works both ways
but if i never ever hear it ring
if nothing else, i'll think the bells inside
have finally found you someone else and that's okay
'cause i'll remember everything you sang

'cause you and i both loved what you and i spoke of
and others just read of and if you could see me now
then i'm almost out of...
i'm finally out of...
well, i'm almost finally, finally out of words.
