Oops! I Did It Again, Britney. Yet on the Bright Side…
Now that the big day has passed (Singles Awareness, Relationship Surprise, or Married Celebration Day depending on your perspective) I am still left with a sense of awe and gratitude.
- Awe: when I walk around my apartment seeing in every nook and corner yet another beautiful and well-thought gift, book, letter, card, or Mylar monkey balloon [which almost 2-weeks later is still floating happily to my right as I type these words from my office – I being such a Spartan fellow that I decided to turn my place into a “bachelor apartment” with an office (the bedroom) rather than the typical 1-bedroom setup].
- Gratitude: as I find myself taking unplanned breaks while I do my chores just staring for a longish moment into Bear’s eyes… at her picture that I just hung up beside my bed.
I should have done this when I moved in, but wasn’t sure where I wanted it. I placed it on my dresser, but the frame I have it in is only good for putting on a wall… not standing up. I realize now that the right place for it is where I can see it.
Okay, well I’m way too tired to keep writing and I have a busy day tomorrow starting with helping my sister set up her computer, which I have too much recent experience with since I screwed up not one, not two, but three Windows installations recently on my own.
I have better taste in women than I do in operating systems it seems! (Actually, Windows can be great – I truly messed it up! When Windows warns you not to edit a file, please don’t.)
As I said to the cute and perky grocery cashier tonight when she asked me how am I doing:
“I’m doing great!”
“Well, actually, I’m not.” She asked why and I said, “Windows”.
She kind of looked at me like I was crazy for a second, asked what kind of windows, and I said, “Windows, problem… put those two words together and what kind must it be?”
She figured it out and smiled again: “Oh right, Microsoft.”
