24-Hour Round Up

In the last 24-Hours...

mr. and mrs. orlando bloom

Was scrolling around somewhere online last night and came across this picture, and had the biggest smile stuck on my face. *Awwwww.*

When I was about 15 I had a massive crush on Orlando Bloom, ("massive" meaning it was one of those that your whole family knows about) and I still think it might be there... deep underneath just lurking around. Sometimes when I run across a picture or see him on a magazine cover the little belly flips ensue, and all of the sudden I'm 15 again and watching him shoot that bow and arrow as an elf. Was he an elf? Well, it was also massive because I jumped at a shirt that I came across at Abercrombie & Fitch back then that read, "Orlando Makes Me Sweat". I just had to have it, and still do, and still wear it from time to time when no other clothes are in reach. My brothers like to pretend the shirt is about Florida. Well I know what it's about... this hot piece of now-married I-still-want-you over here. God I had a thing... what am I here to write? Oh, this picture really made me so happy to see. He's carrying his son in the little male baby pouch, ♥ and as you probably know I haven't had any babies, so my plan to be his wife fell through. But I love seeing this. There the lucky lady is just behind. This is the first time I've actually seen the two of them together with their baby, all I've seen is Miranda going through the airport carrying this humongous child on her hip (or so he looks next to her) a bunch of times. Case in point it was massive: My mom sees a pic while we're together recently and says: Orlando. I remember all of your boyfriends. :)

Even when the crush is a few years old and tired, it never truly dies does it...

going running

er... what? Yeah, I got 4 hours of sleep and decided to get up at 5:30am and go running. When the day was just breaking in the wee morning, so people couldn't really see how ridiculous I look. Also decided to stay inside my suburb as not to get snatched up, I've paid attention to too many Jaycee Lee Dugard stories. Going running at 6am in the Fall in Washington = a massive win. Having a cigarette when you get back = a big obese lose, but I needed to calm down after almost passing out a few times. When I started I was fine, but then got the bright idea to try and run up a hill... (No.) If anyone was watching I'm sure they were holding the telephone with their finger on the 9-1-1 dial, waiting for me to keel over. I have a weird way of saving myself from the extremes though, can bring myself back from being literally two seconds away from puking (not sure if that's good), and can bring myself back from getting ready to pass out too. Just had to sit down and breathe- pant is a better word, and think about nice things. Kind of pleased that I've learned to control some of this stuff to some degree. And well, I did successfully run (for the most part) my course around BluRidge 5 times like I had planned to, in a timely manner, and made it home. En route, one house literally whispered at me. I swear on Robert Pattinson it said "Hey, come here" as I was walking by. I'm praying it was some kind of early set up for Halloween and the running wasn't making me hallucinate, because I literally jumped out of my skin like: WHAT THE FUCK

Well maybe my face wasn't that extreme but... holy shit.

I saw a kid coming out of his house to walk to school and Awwwwed. He looked about 11 or 12, came out and locked the front door with his key quietly, and was on his way. I'm pretty sure my kids will be the same, getting their asses to school themselves. I kid, I just thought it was very sweet to see. I had an idea of exactly where he was going, Lynndale Elementary which is a very close walk just outside of BluRidge through the park. He's about a 5 minute walk from school, how convenient. I used to walk that way with my dad back when I was at Lynndale. Uh.. where was I?... I think I'm gonna try doing this running routine at least once a week. (Try doing being the main words here) It's not so much for the losing weight aspect as I am a piece of string cheese, (got a few looks while out that were That is the skinniest bitch I've ever seen running in my life.) But I feel like I really need to get in shape, been feeling like an old woman here lately, or what I imagine they feel like. Not cool to be 20 and feeling like your days are numbered. So this little routine might be good, and maybe as I do it more often it will get easier and easier.

soulmate

This morning after my run it was time to write a very long much over-due message to the best soulmate in the world, Tina Valley, to fill her in on all the happenings of life in Lynnwood. Which was much needed for me and a huge breath, because I could get out a lot of things that I haven't been talking much about. It's nice to vent and I can always do that with her. Without her getting weirded out about the weirdness that is my life sometimes. Can't really expect that from people much these days.

But she breaks the mold ♥

Thanks for being such a great friend hun.

a thousand years

This might not have made it into the 24-Hour mark exactly but.... second song. And uhh..... words I do not have right now. Think I might have to come back and do another entry on this song alone. I flove.

But watching you stand aloneAll of my doubtSuddenly goes away somehow
