Curiouser and curiouser!

I was feeling sorry for myself on the way home from my 10.5 hour workday. It was confirmed to me by a doctor today that I have IT Band Syndrome. My left leg hurts. I feel like a baby even talking about it because it def makes me weaker than not having it. Just when I was crying "Poor me!" in my head, I saw a woman struggling to walk. She was hobbling slower than a snail's pace on the sidewalk, her shoulder grazing the tall stone wall to her left. It wasn't until I passed her that I could fully see her plight, she had one leg. I wrote this to Jack today, "I got teary eyed. I couldn't believe how blatant Heavenly Father was with his message. I am beyond blessed, I never have room to complain, even if it's alone in my thoughts." Amen.

Here is a fun survey about me so you get to know a few tidbits:

fav color: It's always been blue but honorable mention goes to pink then green
fav drink: Pina Colada then Dr. Pepper
fav food: Sushi
fav tv show: I really enjoyed Lost for a variety of reasons. First, there isn't a show like it. Second, the characters are all hot and on a tropical island. Third, I love all of the symbolism throughout the show.
fav movie: The Breakfast Club
fav dessert: For pie, it's coconut cream. I love frozen yogurt usually with kiwis and gummy bears.
fav clothing store: Everything inside Anthropologie is pretty and pretty expensive! I did buy a pair of $80 shoes from there once that I fell in love with when they were $190 and I waited so patiently!
fav number: 24 and 7
fav accessories: Bold statement pieces which stand alone, like a jade green necklace. Right now I am loving on my Coach bag Lauren gave me for FREE! Lauren says it's fake but I don't care :)
fav season: Fall!
fav animal: It was the Koala when I was 6 and I have no idea why. I am def an animal lover! I want to have 1 or 2 dogs when I have a family. I know this is an insect but I love butterflies.
fav band/singer: Lifehouse and favorite singer is Steven McKellar from Civil Twilight. Seeing that band perform live was one of the best decisions I ever made. I became so emotional from hearing them perform, it was one of the most powerful things I have ever felt.
fav pastime: Lately it's been running, writing, and doodling.

"Falling In"
by Lifehouse

Every time I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

I can't wait till tomorrow
This feeling has swallowed me whole
And know that I've lost control
This heart that I've followed
Has left me so hollow
That was then, this is now, yeah you have changed everything

Every time I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
That we're falling in
I would never do you wrong
Or let you down or lead you on
Don't look down, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

I'm standing in your driveway
It's midnight and I'm sideways
To find out if you feel the same
Won't be easy, have my doubts too
But it's over, without you I'm just lost, incomplete
Yeah you feel like home, home to me

Every time I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
That we're falling in
I would never do you wrong
Or let you down or lead you on
Don't look down, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

All those nights I stayed awake
Thinking of all the ways to make you mine
All of those smiles will never fade
Never run out of ways to blow my mind

Every time I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
That we're falling in
I would never do you wrong
Or let you down or lead you on
Don't look down, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in
Don't be scared, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

Ps Sometimes after a long day, when you have been solving problems for others and helping them out, all you want to do is be taken care of. I came home to an empty feeling apartment filled with useless things. I cannot wait to have a fun weekend. My weekend starts now! No work for me tomorrow! YAHOO!!
