Anne’s birthday dinner last night was wonderful. Her mother is an amazing cook and I was pleased to find that Vegetarian was the norm for her house rather than the exception. I got lost in a discussion about cooking with Anne and her mother and think I will try out some of the recepie ideas that they offered. I don’t know much about the Seventh Day Adventists, but I like the non-meat eating thing. I would be interested to find out if this was a compassionate religious choice (governed by God) or motivated by some other rules of the religion. I shall research. Meanwhile…her enchiladas rivaled my own.

We got Anne a gift card. I hate giving gift cards because they seem so impersonal. But I wrapped it in a riot of pink and she seemed to be happy. The small dinner was just for family and a few friends. Will, her other half, set everything up. I was honored to be included in the intimate affair. When she was doing the introductions, she reffered to D and I as her family. I almost got all emotional. I think my eyes got a little watery. I have many friendships that flourish as my invisible foundation. Anne is a part of that. I know that we mean a lot to each other, and that really keeps me going. That, and she makes me laugh. Pink panties, anyone? I promised to wear pink for her birthday celebration on Saturday (because a girl can’t have just one party!). I am debating the level of pink I am willing to subject myself to.

I had a slight moment on Saturday and had to leave school. The cure for the shakes and nervousness was falling asleep on D’s chest as we cuddled on the couch. I think I drooled on his chest. I constantly fight with the dogs to get snuggle time with D (and I realise that statement is going to kill my rep as a badass). Pip is the worst one. We call him the “Chastity Beagle” for a reason. He loves to lay between D and I, and pushes me off to the side. If he wasn’t so cute, I would kill him.

It’s Monday. I’m hungry and need to go out to get my lunch. But all good girls get presents. And today, I shall give myself a new R-card since I lost mine again. I need to pay more attention to what I do with all my plastic.
