Be Here In Spirit

I wish I could pack you all in my suitcases and take you with me for my excursions abroad, but then they wouldn't be "my excursions," and I wouldn't have any fun stories to share. All I ask you to remember is that no one's forcing you to read about my life, so please, don't be offended with my efforts to let you know how I'm really doing. This is simply my attempt for you to Be Here In Spirit. It's my attempt to fight the distance that seemingly separates us. That being said...e n j o y.

Stream of Consciousness

• my bottle of Mr. Clean reads "Meister Proper"
• I think a man was yelling at me today for walking in front of him. When I held a door for a little girl just after it, she looked up at me (she was adorable) and said, "What's he saying?" I said, "I don't know!" and she said, "He must be drunk."
• someone had to help me open the wash machine today after I did laundry
• I think I need a chair in my ugly white room
• I'm working on my german "R" pronunciation
• can't figure it out yet, but why does eating alone seem to take up dramatically less time than a meal for two or three? or four?
• still don't have a debit card; it's been 2+ weeks
• I finished my first journal ever in my entire life and it's very bittersweet; it's a document capturing the most drastic changes of my life
• Rittersport Marzipan...yes please.
• I'm always hungry
• when you go into a copy shop and need copies, they don't ask you "how many?" instead they ask, "how often?"
• I'm still hungry
• I need more hugs

Here it is: BIG HUG for you! Close your eyes and imagine the warmth of this loving embrace. I may not be there is person, but I am in spirit. (Random thought/prayer: Thank you God for my arms). We take so much for granted, no?Karen, thanks for the tidbits...I so enjoy them after a long day :)
