2006, year of babies

Why my husband will never stop being entertained by me:
Last night I said, "I can't think of the word. You know those little things (holding my hand up to indicate appropriate size) that we had a bunch of but got rid of almost all of them?"

Trinkets. I couldn't think of the stupid word "trinkets." Words are ever my undoing.


In honor of the past year, I have to say that it was the year of babies. an abnormal number of people I know had babies. (and for those of you Office fans, no, I'm not talking about brad and angelina)

Some 2006 highlights:

Song that made me think the most: New Law, by Derek Webb

When I had to try hardest not to cry: Grandpa Sheldon's funeral with honor guard

Greatest jaw-dropper: the surprise 30th birthday party my crafty husband threw

Favorite place to get some work done: Beaners (who knew?)

Most convincing liar: Elizabeth

Number of relatives who had no clue who I was, but should have: 1

What made me feel most myself: getting my hair cut short again


Friends, it's a new year. I don't have any resolutions. Not official anyway; I try to set goals all the time and calling them "resolutions" in no way increases their weight. I'm basically going to make an effort to be true to myself. I find that I'm happier and healthier when I do that. Love you all :)

Interesting fact: there is an actual woman out there named Trinket, and several of my high school classmates have met her. I have made it my personal goal to meet her myself.

Oh, and have I mentioned that I want a baby? Stupid waiting/practicality issue. Bah.
