immortal diamonds of the world unite!!!

here's the highlight reel of my easter weekend (so far):

* movies on thursday night. "into the wild" is amazing and beautiful.
* yoga on friday. hung out with my friend after and then walked home from kits.
* 11 hour sleep on friday night. (11 HOURS!!!)
* tea party on saturday where i found out 2 things: one, i have metal kneecaps (for protection) and two, i am a wild woman goddess girl who is blessed. oh, it was a healing tea party and there was an energy worker there and it was amazing.
* yummy lamb dinner with family, chased by my first ever pavlova which was goooooooood.
* went to church this morning which was great.... a little "jesus christ is risen today" and a sermon whose moral was "you are an immortal diamond, so shine!"
* hanging out today with a walk in the rain, tea, fruity hot cross buns and then historical "drama", the other boleyn girl, which was good if a wee bit historically inaccurate.

and do you know what the best part is? my weekend ain't done yet! one more day of bliss and rapture and then back to the olde grind. i might spice it up, though, by bringing back the olde pentagonal headpiece a la anne boleyn or catherine of aragon. i may be single now, but not for long after i don one of these babies. trust.

why is a short week always so loooong?

and why haven't i posted in so looong? well, my uncle had complications after his surgery which is pretty much a gross understatement, i got homesick and depressed and then i got busy. really busy. and i went away and saw awesome people and places and now i'm finally home (at least for a couple more weeks).

my uncle is getting better slowly thanks to the amazing dedication of my mom and thanks to the wonders of medical science, but my homesickness is still there. i just want a mom hug.

and my work travels have been fun (ok, okanagan was waaaay more fun than the cariboo, but still, travelling and tv are almost always good). i have a couple of boring solo pics from the okanagan which are much less fun than the pics that jan took that are on facebook but the cariboo pics are stuck on my work laptop which means i have something to do while at work tomorrow! along with my work, that is. :)

and it's wednesday and all i want is thursday to come since i get friday and monday off! praise jebus! and chocolate! oh and jebus again! (i still haven't figured out exactly what he was doing on easter monday, but i'll take all of the holidays i can get. this girl needs a break from the travelling and compressing of everything into short timeframes due to travelling and this girl definitely needs a little sleep-in.)

here are some of the okanagan pics:
they walk on water there! and talk on water! (speaking of jebus)


sun at silver star!

sun and cloud! (can you tell vancouver is a little grey?)

and originally i thought this was a very nice pic of me but then i realized that this is my fakey fake smile, and now i howl whenever i look at it. oh and i howl when i look at my goggles / faceshield too (but it only cost me $20! and my glasses fit under them! and probably a small cat could fit under them too!)


i'm out. must do sexy things like wash dishes and pick up clothes that i have been throwing all over my apartment this week in the hopes of being dressed for work. that's right... who's bringing sexyback? jc (jesus and jess....!)
