Losing It...

I may well be losing my mind.

Yesterday I forgot my lunch, my phone and my bus ticket.

Today I remembered to bring them all.

But I've probably forgotten something else.......

Thursday Special

Just sitting at my desk at work thinking that the neck on my Dave Matthews T-shirt seems particularly tight today. Has my neck gotten fatter? Am I sprouting an adam's apple? Am I slouching and pushing it back the wrong way?

So I grabbed the collar to pull it down a bit. Uh Oh. I can feel the tag!

Today, as something extra special, I am wearing my t-shirt backwards to work.

(just going to change now!)

*post script: feeling much more respectable now!

Today's creative streak

Here's what I've been up to today. Let me know what you think!!

Being Entertained: Gently

Two movies well worth watching when you need a laugh, a cry and some space for your brain to breathe:

Chasing Liberty

Bridge to Terabithia

It is so precious to not be assaulted, confronted, scared, disturbed or frustrated by a movie. I do really love movies like that (alien adventures, mysteries and the like) but some days all I want from a movie is to smile warmly, shed a quiet tear or two and come out the other side feeling a little lighter for the experience.

Both of these movies do that for me in different ways. Both of these movies will be watched by me again - a sign of a good movie for me! I hope you can make time for one or both of them and revel in the niceness.
