zzzz's with the fuzzzzy pants

I slept soo good lastnight. The last 2 nights I've gotten to bed before 3am. Wednesday night specificially I was absolutely wiped out from the lack of sleep the night before & crashed by 12:15 - which is rather early for me! 8 hours later I woke up feeling so much better.

I had lots of dreams lastnight... one was about a girl I went to high school with. I volunteered to help her move, but when I arrived at her place she hadn't gotten there yet. That morning I had realized my Mom was packing and moving the same day, too, so I was really only there to tell her I couldn't help after all. For some reason I didn't have my friend's #, but some of her family members called while I was there so I told them to tell her I had to go. Then on my way out she showed up. She seemed really depressed and her one relative had just told me she was trying to sell her little condo and pack up everything and move to Australia with a guy. But she just seemed so incredibly depressed and sad I couldn't possibly think it was a sound move on her part. It seemed like she was running away from something.

I walked back into her house with her and she was telling me how disgusted she was with her place and that it was like dirty or in a bad part of town or something (veyr much like a rich girl that needs to have the world, but nothing is ever good enough) and this place was a place I would love to own. I thought to myself, worried for her, that she might not ever be happy with even the best places out there. Obviously, it really wasn't about the house.

When I went to go help my Mom move all of a sudden we were in a store & she was trying to buy me a duffle bag for $226. I told her it was way too much and it even seemed thin and cheap & would probably break despite the stores long list of how great it was. She was INSISTING I take it - but then I realized it was a sleeping bag and I'd already just bought myself one. Somehow I was relieved I talked her out of it.

While tossing and turning through the first confusing buzzes of my alarm clock, my cutie kitty came up and snuggled up under my arm. Thing is, is that he hardly EVER does this. He's always been a kitty who sleeps at my feet on the bed, and he'll come up and say goodnight (stand on my chest and sometimes lay down on it, bonk my face with his head, purr and lick my nose) or wake me up that way. But rarely has he come and slept right beside me - which I LOVE!!!

Lately though when he's lying on my chest I'll do a one fall swoop move where I get him on his back, and I flip on my side and I can snuggle him close like that. He loves it. So, I think he's starting to get how great it is sleeping right up beside me is and I couldn't be happier. Waking up with my kitty by my side and snuggling the morning in is the best. I think I stayed in bed for an extra 40 minutes :)

I'm pretty stoked it's Friday. This week's been a hard week. I've been working so around the clock that I haven't even seen Ricky G - it's been 5 days!!! GASP! Seriously. It might be the longest we've been apart since he had to go to Germany after SXSW, or Christmas the time before that. I miss him something fierce and am very excited to see him tonite. :)

Another thing I'm way excited about tonite for is Rilo Kiley!! They're at Bottom of the Hill tonite and I've absolutely fallen in love with their CD. I can't wait!

Happy Friday everyone!
