Yesterday turned out to be a pretty good day. Other than wanting to take a bat to the dog’s head during the morning hours, I spoke to my folks, and then learned I won a $75 GC for flowers! Too bad it’s too late for Mother’s Day, but I can still surprise Mom with something and even get some treats for myself.

Finally heard from Maliheh. She’s still being affected by the tornado and said the shit just keeps coming, but that she’ll talk more over the next couple of days. She hopes things are better for me too, but as I told her, stable is more like it. Our heads are above water, but only a job will make it better. Got a few months yet.

Nane sure helps make it better. :) Yeah, I really think I have more than just a crush on her, and I told her so. She didn’t seem bothered by it, so that’s cool. I told her I’d have sent her some flowers if she lived here and she said it’s the thought that counts. So since blue and orange are her favorite colors, I told her I was “thinking” orange tulips in a blue vase her way.

We got to talking about my ear and she said that her mother has worked in various institutions for people with all kinds of handicaps, so she thanks God she’s healthy (even though she doesn’t believe in Him), and says she could never have bad feelings towards those with handicaps.

She really is a reminder that not all beauties are snobs. Oh, Nane, why’d you have to be so far away?

I can see where she gets her looks. I saw a picture of her mother, Ingrid, who also seems tall and slender and she looks about 50 years old. She has long red hair, which I’m sure is dyed since she’s got to be around 70.

So she’s got a mother and two brothers, Mike and Tobias, listed on Facebook. Wonder where Daddy is?
