This.

I..

Am happy.

Delirious even.

And I don't even know how to describe it. Just to say that I am.

I have The Bun. Family. Great friends. A job that I may even love. A wicked storm raging..

What more could a girl ask for?

I made cookies!

For Valentine's Day!

Because I wanted to.

I generally don't do too much for this particular holiday, but I was in the mood to bake this year. What else to do than bake? My friends seemed to enjoy them. Which is all that counts.

I made my absolute favorite cookie of all time, "Sunny Cocoa Drop Cookies". They are the stuff. I'm not even kidding, these suckers rock. My younger brother came downstairs while I was baking and says, "I smell sunny cocoa drop cookies."

Seriously.

So I gave them to my friends and family. They all agreed that they are awesome and The Stuff.

What's your favorite cookie?

Of all the random..

I got bitten..

By a ladybug.

???

See, I live at my parent's house right now while I'm apartment hunting and furniture buying. And there are ladybugs here. A lot of them. They like my room.. They like the upstairs really. Anyway, yesterday, I was ignoring my alarm clock (Three snoozes, minimum.) when I felt a stinging on my hand! Startled upright was I! Found the bugger, and yes! A ladybug! I didn't even know they bit! Wtf I ask!

The Bun (code name for my daughter), has had issues with them as well. It was two weeks ago maybe, she'd been awake for about twenty minutes and was playing with her toys, when she ran to my side and says, "Mommy! I just ate a ladybug!" with a sick slash worried look on her face. "Well what did you do that for?" I say back to her. "It flew in my mouth.."

..

She's three. And one half. So I suppose it's understandable that she wouldn't think to just spit the sucker out!

Though I didn't think that ladybugs would be so prolific during the winter months.. Do they not hide away like other bugs? I always assumed that they did. Oh well.
