Today was a good day.

I hadn’t seen The Boy for almost a week and he took me to lunch AND braved the mall for me. He bought me a gorgeous new winter coat (even though it is 75 degrees outside today in Chucktown). But, I am going to Washington DC in less than a week and needed a coat for my trip. I did get locked out of my house, but after a minute the or so of freaking out…and bitching at my sister for locking the wrong lock on the door… S. looks at me a calmly tells me to call my landlord. So for all my hotheadedness, I was brought back down to earth by a man who clearly doesn’t get worked up about much of anything and thinks logically, while I have a bit of a Scorpion temper tantrum.

Now I’m at my parents house having Christmas dinner early because both my ma and I have to work Christmas night. So I am enjoying my family, making more jewelry, showing my little sis how to solder. It has been a good day….
