more than one meaning to this which we call a gift

Currently Listening: The Matches - Wake The Sun

Today is Mother's Day, and a very good one at that. I know today is not about the gifts, but a year where I can actually afford to give my mom something she needs/wants is a good year. I got her some sandals, foot lotion stuff, and chocolate. Oh, and McDonald's for dinner! Nothing big, nothing extravagant, but she needed them. I know my mom gives me everything I need plus some, and the past 3 years have been an insane roller coaster of adventure for our little tripod of a family, so giving her those things made me happy to be where we finally are. I love my mommy :)

So what's been happening and going on? I've been listening to bands I normally don't, looking into some old lenses/film cameras to purchase, going to school EVERY DAY and ON TIME, taking many naps, not caring about my hair as much, avoiding the internet, uploading pictures to flickr, rererererereading my yearbook, planning on tanning, trying to not bite my nails, and some other random things. That's basically all of it, in a very brief sentence.

Meghan called me today and it made me way more excited than I already was to be home. I miss those familiar voices and connot wait to see their faces. 80 days and counting dear Chicago, and we shall be reunited.

Today is the 2nd to last Sunday where I actually have to be in bed at a decent time to wake up for school on Monday.
