goddamn self-fulfilling prophecy

this morning after my shower i accidentally began to lotion my legs with my hair creme stuff. how brilliant. the bottles look similar and they are both pretty smelling! uf, who does that?

although i remembered chloe's birthday on friday, i managed to forget my dad's yesterday. how awful. i realized with an OHSHIT around 7 o'clock this evening, so it was officially missed by a day. wow, i forget that parents don't have facebook with virtual birthday reminders. this wouldn't have been so bad if i hadn't actually remembered chloe's, seeing as she IS my dog. anyways, i called my dad for an awkward belated happy birthday and then preceeded to listen to him rattle off his christmas list of certain car and plane models... most of which i did not recognize, oh what a dreamer.

lately i've been in love with the telephone, or rather, the people on the other end of the line. somehow, chats over the phone with a best friend always leave things a little better than they were before. seamless conversations come in the form of swapping gossipy bits and best/worst moments of the week, while mind-reading each other's next move and pulling out inside jokes from an entire stash complied over a seven year period. i love it.

also, chats with a certain lover right before sleep = very good sleep
