"people are dying. is that an argument in favor of sitting on cats?"--emma thompson, fortunes of war.

i canceled the bridesmaid dress fitting/bride-to-be bonding that was to be had tonight. i am sick of working, sick of of studying, sick of slacking. i'm tired but i sleep all the time. don't get me wrong, this is one of the happiest phases of my life thus far. it's a gorgeous pink spring and i get to live in portland oregon. i have a beautiful gray cat who is starting to ignore me less. i get out of school in 3 weeks. i have a boyfriend and i am not freaking out about it (in fact, i like it very much).
what do you do with an unexpected free night? if you are danielle, this is what you do:
1.take a bath.
2.make some ravioli.
3.read some of donald miller's writing.
a. laugh your face off.
b. soberly question your concept of god.
4. watch a random old movie you found at the library (fortune's of war).
bonus! kenneth branaugh is adorable when he is young. a visionary!
double bonus! the movie is set in the balkans! the balkans!
5.sit and think about your life, and the blessings therein.
6. pray for your sisters (and the kittens they find in azerbaijan that have broken paws).
7. go to sleep early, because it all starts again tomorrow.

that's it.
cheerio, darlings!

I love your list blogs, and the rest of the blog, besides the list.

Not as much as list blogs, but still, I also like when I don't have to decide whether or not I will be presumptuous in my intepretation of your post.

You sure missed a cozy time at the Global Night Commute sleeping downtown next to Danny Hazen on unforgiving bricks under the frozen stars... er...
