    Love Thursday: Naps and Valentines


    Love Thursday 02/15
    Originally uploaded by nichole_e.
    I had a few rough days this week, for no reason that I can discern. I was in a bad, bad funk and couldn't break out of it. But all is well now, and for that I'm grateful.

    As much as I love "The Departed," I think I might need to wait awhile before I watch it again. Last night I dreamed that I was going bowling with Leonardo DiCaprio. And then there was a tiger chasing me through an abandoned house. I don't know what happened to Leo.

    February 8
    • Piper stopping in the middle of the sidewalk to dance to "Get Off of My Cloud."
    • California Kitchen pizza.
    • (Lovingly!) mocking Alex while he painstakingly picks out tomorrow's outfit.
    • Taking a nap with Piper cozied up in my arms.

    February 9
    • Playing in the living room blanket fort with Piper.
    • Realizing that Piper's shirt and hairbow match (purchased at separate times by different people).
    • Napping during Piper's nap.
    • Falling asleep with Alex.
    • Getting the news about my friend Young Greg's new job.

    February 10
    • Piper kissing all of her buddies before getting out of the crib.
    • Pi laughing at the "Puppy overboard!" page everytime we read "Clifford's Bathtime."
    • Lunch at Pei Wei ... and leftovers for dinner!
    • Finding the perfect bedside tables at Target.
    • Starting a Netflix account/queue for my in-laws (thanks for the idea, Amy!).
    • Discovering that Pei Wei's Kung Pao Tofu is only 6 Points.
    • Walking around the fancy-pants shopping area with Alex & Pi.

    February 11
    • An all-together lovely day.
    • Piper walking over for a bite of yogurt and, as she walks away, turning around, pointing at me and saying "Yo."
    • The butterflies and flowers plane at the art museum.

    February 12
    • Piper's kisses.
    • Losing two-fifths of a pound.

    February 13
    • Watching "The Departed" for the third time.
    • Watching the Bare Minerals makeup DVD.
    • Alex putting on fresh socks for bed.
    • Justin saying he's willing to take Marsha when we move into a no-pets apartment.

    February 14
    • Piper being so goofy when I have to wake her up.
    • "Lost"!
    • 1-Point Creamsicles.
    • The pillow landing on my back when Alex throws it at me.
    • Making Valentine's Day dinner with Justin over the phone.

  • Kara says, "awww..what a great post.

    I loved the departed too..but it made me dream of Mark Wahlberg not Leo...he was chasing me down a dark hallway but never caught me it was weird....maybe that movie sends out sublimal messages or something! haha!" (10:54 AM, February 15, 2007)  

  • Ninotchka says, "I get those funks too. And they're nothing more than just that, a funk. Glad you're out of it. I loved your list for this week!" (11:55 AM, February 15, 2007)  

  • PastorMac's Ann says, "Glad that your week shaped up. Sometimes those blue days are tough to shake. Sure enjoy coming by here on Thursday for a look at your "thankful" list." (2:10 AM, February 16, 2007)
