Wow! Thanks for visiting, K. You're the best. Your visit reminded me of how special you are to me.

Isn't it just so much nicer to see someone you've missed in person instead of talking to them on the phone?...it makes me appreciate their funny little habits, gestures. I think presence makes a world of difference--(it makes me so happy to have been with kame after not spending a decent time with him for a long ass time). I liked how after we ate at Skates, he was so full he felt like "rolling around on the ground." And then how we talked about being in New York if he doesn't get into a California med school. And how his brother is coming back tonight, and what a life it must be to live on an island you can walk across! Even though we got soaked, and his espadrilles might have shrunk a little, it was a great day. This morning we stopped at Mr. Mopps, the toy store on MLK, (boy was it crowded) to get presents for his two little cousins who are coming to visit in about a week or two. I got four beanie babies (two robins from 1997, one praying bear from 1999, and a german shepherd rescue dog in memory of sept 11), and kame got a $1.50 plastic kite for me, and one of those plastic toys with a propeller top and a stick handle that you swivel between your palms to make it fly up in the air (for 25 cents). But no presents for the cousins....! (Nonetheless, aren't toy stores the best places to shop?! Always fulfilling, and never a lot out of the pocket book).

Oh yeah, last night we rented "Y Tu Mama Tambien," which was a really good movie. On another note, K has become quite vain with that new hair wax stuff he's been getting from Lydia and Diana! Quite vain, indeed. Well, I guess friends do help make us feel good about ourselves. :]

I bought two bunches of white and pink carnations, and it was really worth it. I think flowers alter a room instantly, and it feels much more alive in here. On another note, my female guppy had another round of babies, but I haven't bothered to count how many because she ate most of them, I think. :) It's just an endless cycle of reproduction (fertilization, gestation, birth, fertilization, gestation, birth ....) for those two guppies.

Anyway, I have to remember to take all of my stuff out of studio before tuesday night, bring the rest of the library books up to davis, and get fish food at Albany Aquarium. Lucky kame already done with everything, and gets to party tonight, whereas I have to try to conjure up some dinner and read up for the history final ... tomorrow will definitely be a 100% study day, but I think I might to to Soap Sistahs on Solano to smell some soaps for a "break." I know in the end it will all be fine, though. I think this class is actually working for me. And what was really great was when my dad called me to ask me how I was doing, and he told me that he has faith in me. It made me much, much feel better about the final.
