If I'm Not Crying Over One Thing...
...I'm crying over another.
This time it happens to be the horrible allergens that have managed to sneak past my hermetically-sealed fortress of solitude. And by fortress I mean the open window right next to my bed. As a result, I've had a bloody nose for the last 18 hours (not like I'm gushing blood, but still) and a runny nose and tearing eyes. I look like an ebola-stricken extra in the movie Outbreak; all I need is a shrieking monkey to complete the picture.
The Great Purge of 2007 continutes today, with multiple trips to the garbage can in the backyard, and even more trips to the minivan, which will wend its way to Goodwill sometime tomorrow. There are going to be some very happy scavengers at that place, I tell you.
Unfortunately, the GPo2007 also means that all of my cool-weather clothes have been packed away, so of course today dawns brisk and windy. I had to scramble to find a pair of (dirty) jeans and a 3/4 sleeve shirt. Even so, my teeth were chattering in my room, so I've relocated to the downstairs living room where at least I can look outside into the gorgeous afternoon sunshine and contemplate my death from hypothermia.
What else? In a fit of devil-may-care spending, I got a pedicure with my mom today. My toes are now a rosy red and scream "I am alone and unloved" to anyone that will listen.
Oh blah dee oh blah dah life goes on oh la la la la life goes on...

If you're purging that amazing European-purchased bag, consider me your friendly neighborhood Goodwill.
And obliterated heart aside, you are *not* unloved, o' red-toed one.

You're not unloved...you're BE-loved.
