It's me. It's Monday.

1. Have I mentioned that I like purple? I'm getting a little obsessive about. It's like I can't buy anything unless it's purple. Friday I went and got my hair cut. And dyed.


It's purple. It makes me happy. I also had to go buy some purple eyeshadow. Somebody stop me, please! It's obnoxious!

2. Some friends of ours had a baby on Friday. The labor went really fast and they ended up not making it to the hospital in time. She was born in the car!* And I'm REALLY happy that mom, dad and baby are all safe and sound after that wild ride! Also, I'm a big fan of holding babies.


Doesn't it look like I'm about to just slurp her right up? Yum!

3. I've been going to therapy for over two years. And can I just say that I love it? Cuz I do. I love it. I go every other Monday. And so every other Monday I just might include a shout out to my therapist for Thank God It's Monday. I'm a wholer and healthier person because of therapy.

4. It may sound cheesy, but I am thankful for drugs. Not the illegal kind, the OTC kind. Ibuprofen, more specifically. I woke up with a headache this morning, but a little Advil knocked it right out. Also, I'm thankful for Zantac almost every single day. Gah! Stupid stressful life! I mean, uh, yay for this life that is wonderful and filled with things for which to be thankful!

5. Suicide soup! My friend J and I went to Au Bon Pain and I couldn't decide which kind of soup I wanted. So I got all three. Mac and cheese on the bottom, broccoli and cheddar in the middle, and italian wedding on top. It was super yum. I may get it again tomorrow.

*Luckily, the father's cousin, who happens to be a doula, was with them in the car and helped deliver the baby. Did you hear that? A DOULA! Holy crap, I might have to rethink this whole doula thing.
