signs of life

today was much better.  i think a, God answers prayers, even dumb simple ones like mine and b, i got 8 hours of sleep.  when i got up today, i had this weird thing called energy and i had a positive feeling.  i decided to wear my bright pink capris as my friday fun pants.  i paired it with my white t-shirt that says love in gold over a snake skin back ground.  i was even just devil may care enough to match my eyes, pink n gold, to my outfit.  yahoo!  all day while we were making sesame chicken thighs i was full of weird and funny and cabin fevery, i'mma gonna sass you, energy. 

at early lunch we had this weird and wonderful conversation among the members and staff at our table.  mary had this idea for a business of a coffee shop where you can go to a back room and get advice or vent to a life coach/psychic type person.  then #davidlin and i had this idea that you could choose from a menu of archetypes.  like if you wanted mom like advice, or dad like, or both parents, or from a best friend, etc.  we thought that each type should come with an environment for that type.  but mary was stuck on the coffee shop.  and #davidlin said we should just drop the coffee. caleb, who came to the table a bit later stirred his sausage linguini and said "i think i just walked into the weirdest conversation ever." and everyone was shouting out different ideas and laughing and joking and then henry s would come by the table and yell something random at us and... and it was fun.  i love those kinds of clubhouse moments.  i love the clubhouse community.  i love the clubhouse people.

after i finished eating i went to put today's special on the thumb drive that goes into the tv and when i came out mashood was just finishing giving the lunchtime announcements and everyone was clapping and i ran out with my arms up in the air like they were cheering for me, so they cheered for me too.  then colin said "yay laura and her dirty shirt." and i was like wha?  and he said "yeah what happened?" and i'm like "where is it dirty?" and mari was like "in your armpit. it looks like a coffee spill."  so i went to the washroom to check and sure enough there was a big light brown splash coming out of my armpit towards my right boob.  must be sesame chicken sauce but i don't know how i did it, i said to j9.  she joked that i must have taken the spoon and splashed it under my armpit. 

so then i forgot about it until i was at the pet food store on my way home and suddenly smelled a very strong aroma of sesame oil and rice vinegar. 

i left half an hour early than my 2:30 early day.  "i'm free!' i yelled as i walked down the hall.  and i am.  i'm free.  :)
