yesterday my friend posted on Facebook that he'd checked the forecast and it called for alcohol, low standards, and poor decision making.

turns out he was exactly right! last night was one of those nights where being single was fun. it was sorely needed! despite the fact I am so sick of people saying this word, last night was pretty epic. totally over the top, but I regret nothing. I wear my shame like a badge of honour. Sylvain and Nine would truly be proud.

I also talked to a girl who is 7 months pregnant (and she was dressed up as the cutest bumblebee!!) and we gushed over babies. and it was nice to be excited for them, rather than feeling envious.

today I drove out to see my brother's new house that he bought. my parents were visiting him. I just about didn't go, because I was tired (I had maybe 4 hours of real sleep) and feeling like I'd been run over, but I'm glad I did. my mom and I both needed to hang out, talk, hugs and love. it was also good to see my little brother all set up with a house! he's come a long way in the last two years, that's for sure. actually, we both have.
