So i thought i'd share a little mini-drama-in-the-life-of-me with you all...
I generally get to my job between ten and ten thirty- when you can't drive yourself, you're never totally sure when you're going to arrive- but this morning...I was staring at my alarm clock thinking, It can NOT be six-thirty already..... and that I probably should have gotten to bed before two-thirty am. Then I closed my eyes, opened them- and it was ten thirty-six. My eyes fell out of my head. It had to be some cruel joke. It wasn't. I did find out though, that it's possible for me to get to her house in forty-five minutes, provided I skip breakfast and hyperventilate a lot. Lesson learned though- when I have to get up the next morning, either get to bed by midnight or don't go to sleep at all. >.<
Best Book Ever:
Just read it a few days ago and I wrote this right after I finished...
Fabulously wonderful. Can't say it's one of my favorite books yet, as I need to read it a few more times but I adore it, and it's going to be. The main character, Cassandra, reminds me a lot of myself, only much improved. More intelligent, more educated, immeasurably more articulate, witty and charming without being elegant or cultured and a marvelous writer- my diary bears no resemblance to her's in the slightest sense. I will eventually write a report of sorts on this book and post it as my review, but for now let me say that the ending made me mumble "Oooooh NO!" and limply drop the book on the table. It frustrated me that she could end any story with romantic elements to it so realistically. I respect her for doing that though, because even though it was ambiguous, such is life. I'm glad she didn't tie it all up in a pretty bow. Or rather, I'm trying to be.
She really is a spectacular author and I've ordered some more of her books. :)
Current Favorite Song:
Oh! this reminded me that I haven't put my playlist back on since I changed my template...it's
Fidelity by Regina Spektor. For right now. :D
Other Favorites:

Hey Kelly!!!
Uh, it doesn't look messed up to me. I don't even remember your password....or do I...yeah, I do actually! I think. So I don't think I need to fix it...
We should talk on the phone sometime soon. You can call whenever, I don't know when I can call you (like when is good for you...). Or maybe you don't WANT to talk!! lol "this girl was not what I thought she was, why would I ever talk on the phone to her??" lol
Oh thanks, I made the template. :) Just recently. I get tired of things easily, I guess that's what happens when you are spoiled, huh?
ttyl!

Yeah, Thursday's good. We're getting new doors (not all of them, it would take longer than 2 days to get them all replaced...but the windows? Like 2 YEARS....we have 75) and so we'll probably be home most of the day...oh no I'm getting my hair cut at noon, but besides that I think that's it. Just call whenever you can. I'll be available all day. :)
Luv, Ellyn
P.S. Do you have my number still?

Ouch! I hate it when I wake up at the right time, close my eyes for "a second", and then it's a few hours later! Not fun! Well, it's fun to sleep more, but not so much when you really wake up...haha!
Where you do work?

By the way, I JUST saw the comment where you asked me how I'm getting my hair cut...well it's already cut and it's about shoulder length. It looks a lot better in my opinion. :) I don't really care if anyone else likes it (well I guess I do...) but I just want something that is easy to handle, and that I'm happy with!!
