ok so it has been quite a while since i have written ... david and i had a pretty good time in DC ... we went to the Air and Space museum and the National Building museum which had an awesome photo show of the WTC ...


we got the new car which is amazing ... and hung out with my parents ... it was a fun week ...


since we have been home we have done pretty much all of our holiday shopping ... it is amazing we are both out of jobs but did all our shopping online instead of braving the mall ... hahahaaa ...


well i guess technically david isn't out of a job anymore ... he is at starbucks which is my dream job for him right now ... hahahahaaa ... not his ... but he isn't hating it which is good ... we get free coffee now ... he is working so he is a much happier person ... and it looks like it will lead to some groovy computer opportunities ... which i know would make him happy ... i think he will also be able to start going to school now ... so things look groovy in that area ...


i finished our holiday card today ... it says "peace" in 7 different launguages around the outside edge [it is a postcard] and then says "you may say i'm a dreamer ... but i'm not the only one ... i hope someday you'll join us ... and the world will live as one - John Lennon ... so now tomorrow i am going to go to kinko's and get it printed up ... i think i am going to use one of those 'spot color' machines so instead of photocopying in black the ink is red ... i did a card with that machine like 5 years ago and it came out so groovy ...


i am having such a hard time coming up with a christmas gift for david ... and it just makes me feel so badly ... last year we hardly knew each other and david got me an amazing bubble lamp ... i was blown away with what a great present it was ... and i got him a stupid palm pen that could be used as a pen or for the palm pilot and he never used it ... so after new years i tried to make up for the lame gift and got him a palm keyboard ... he used that for a few minutes and it has been sitting on the shelf ever since ... in may when his birthday came around he was recently out of a job and we just didn't have much money at all so he wound up getting nothing ... well we went to the city to stay in a hotel [my brother gave us a voucher for a hotel] and we went out to dinner ... but it is just driving me crazy that i can't come up with something that he will love ...


next week is our one year anniversary and i feel like i should just know what to get him ... and my mind is a blank ... i mean i think i did great job of finding awesome gifts for everyone this year except for the man i love ... it is breaking my heart ... all i want to do is find something that will wow him like he wowed me last year ... i want to find something he will love so much ... that makes him feel good ... that lets him know how much i love and appreciate him and to show him how very special he is to me ... :)
