melcreada | I am watching French Kiss...

I have nothing interesting to report - just work, work, and more work. I am tired of acting like my co-worker's mother, trying to keep us on track and focused. The work is exhausting enough on its own, I don't need to be after him all the time as well, especially because no matter whether we succeed or fail, we will get equal praise/blame. So, it's either do all the work myself and let him get half the credit or drag him along behind me. At least with the dragging, he is doing some of the work. He's smart and a quick study, but trying to get him to follow a testing schedule is the most frustrating part of this whole project!

Look at that, I did have something to say! Unfortunately, not interesting.

Day 07 - Your best friend

My dearest and oldest friend that I am not related to is Nay-nay. We met Freshman year in third period English class. She turned to me and started talking and didn't stop until 6th period Spanish, LOL. She is kooky and odd, but someone who makes me feel so comfortable just being myself. After years of kids my age coming in and out of my life with me not really caring one way or the other, she made me want to actually hang out and talk on the phone. The funny thing is, we don't really have a whole lot in common in the way of interests or hobbies, but whatever the stuff our souls are made of, we are cut from the same cloth. We have similar ideals and beliefs and can crack each other up with just a look. We could go months without talking to each other and one day just pick up where we left off like nothing had happened. She's not perfect by a long shot - she's opinionated, hates almost all my boyfriends, and specializes in making mountains out of molehills. But I love her and we've been friends for almost 25 years. That's gotta mean something. ♥

Day 08 - A moment

The weekend before last as JP and I were leaving the state park, we were driving down a deserted patch when suddenly a turkey vulture on the side of the road took flight: right over the hood of our car. His wingspan was enormous and for several heartbeats, I thought he wasn't going to clear the vehicle. Both JP and I whispered, "Shit!" simultaneously. It was gorgeous and scary at the same time. A very long moment that I am still thinking about two weeks later.
