This is my new favorite quote, thanks to my friend Susan who told it to my little sister Sarah...

"tell him that he can't have the frosting without the cake, or the ice cream without the pie. tell him to get lost until he's ready to buy the whole damn thing."

my favorite quote about crushes, from Mr. Maybe by Jane Green

"and somehow when someone gives you that tingly feeling in the pit of your stomach, you stop thinking about the right and wrongs the shoulds and should nots, and just go with it."

My head has been swimming in daydreams lately. The two items that have been on my mind lately have been Fernando(not good)and my house.I've been mentally decorating my house. True I don not have any clue about what my house will look like but I still can come up with my decor, right? I have decided I will do my kitchen in cream and periwinkle and my bathroom white with hightlights of red and white gingham and cherries. I bought cherry printed curtains tonight. I can't help it they were $3 clearanced. I have also mentally tallied what furniture I have , two wing chairs (blue) my twin bed, a glass top dining room table (no chairs) and a desk. For other home things, items my mother has purchased to inspire me to move out I think, a toaster, salt and pepper shakers (i never use either salt nor pepper), two white bath towels, coffee mugs and a pooh tea set. So pretty much I have to start from scratch. But too me it is great big wonderful project. Just call me Martha Stewart. It's so cute my little brother Andrew who is ten is already asking when he can visit. He said he could just put a sleeping bag on the floor. He just can't comprehend the fact that I won't mind living on my own.
