Guess what?! it's the 22nd, which means 9 month anniversary! So tonight, Daniel and I are going to eat dinner at Delesandro's--an italian place i've heard wonderful things about!--and then home for those amaretto martinis i mentioned :) the 'goods' are here...it's gonna happen! and i get to dress up, thanks to Nana who sent me the most adorable little black dress :) yay!
there's a little punky-girl feltie with red heels. christi read that book and said she liked it...i haven't, but thought it'd make a nice back drop :) and a chocolate-covered smiley-berry! our oven at work was broken today (NOT a good thing if you work at a bakery) so we got creative with making things that don't require an oven. such as these strawberries! fun!
and finally, a poem...it was just the first two stanzas but once i typed them out it kept going :) (i think it may be evidence that i'm subconsciously pursuing a career as a rapper...)
Whistling winds and rustling leaves
Rushing waters, words that weave
A spell of sounding symmetry
Of lies that wither, truths that breathe
Of substance on a surface grained
With hard-won triumphs, crouching pain
A first-glance Beauty--second, same--
That Beauty love and wisdom gain
Go, take away her wings, her words
Divide his heartache into thirds
Go, build your kingdom where it hurts
Destroying souls that dared to stir
You know the loveless die alone
While those they've broken make it home
You know this in your hardened heart
(As bones grow thick once torn apart)
The emperor and martyred man
The distant and the close-at-hand
The crown, the crypt, the common-place
May we both live and die with grace
