I wrote last time about bad dream due to stress over fourth formers. Well last night I had a really good sleep a great one! I lay the joy of my good sleep on "Fruits Basket" a gorgeous anime that Sis borrowed from a friend of hers and which I watched 12 episodes of yesterday. It's a really lovely highschool anime that is really non-dodgy, the main character, Tohru Honda, is quite together, she's had a hard life with her mother dying recently (no mention of what happened to the father as yet) but she is determined to finish highschool and basically be nice to everyone. She seems to work hard at school, is not unco-ordinated at sports, neither does she have super powers, except being incredibly nice and understanding to people. There is a supernatural theme with the other main characters, various members of the 'Sohma family' but she is refreshingly normal and lovely. Last night I did wake up a few times and have fuzzy memories/images of Tohru being nice and kind. It sent me right back to a happy sleep.
Other nice things that have happened this week include a surprise late birthday present from a coworker of a giant toblerone bar! Yum! Also a compilation CD left in my mailbox as a late birthday present. Haven't had time to listen to it yet, but still great! Another extended birthday joy is coming home and seeing all the various bunches of flowers that people gave Blondie and I for our birthdays. It's soooo great! Thanks everyone!
Tomorrow is Blondie's birthday proper and she is going home for dinner with her parents. I don't know what to get her. She hasn't got me a 'proper' present yet, but she made that fab cake for me and I want to be able to give her something tomorrow. Maybe I'll just make a nice card or something? To bide time til we can go shopping together. We might have some flat drinks on friday. I am currently feeling a bit poor tho as I just paid another $1000 off my student loan. Wa-ah. the next two weeks til payday will be a bit tight, but.... Joy! Almost paid off the student loan!
Also just a random mention, still feeling great about me and Beau.
Warmth.
