What have I gotta do!!!

Please keep this young woman and her family in your prayers.

Mellow Monday

There I go with alliterations again xD. Now, I know what you're thinking. "Julie, it's not Monday anymore!" Shut up.

On a fairly recent trip to the Carmel-by-the-sea toy store, I bought a 300 piece jigsaw puzzle that my sister and I could work on. Before I tell you what the puzzle was called, please note--I did not pick it out. *sigh* it was called "Magisches Einhorn" or "Magical Unicorn." -_________-"

ANYWAY, we started off Mellow Monday by finishing the 300-piece jigsaw puzzle. Talk about accomplishment!

I then frittered away the majority of the afternoon (after finishing chores) snuggled up in the couch watching Julia Child. As I was about to fall asleep, I got a call from my cousin-in-law saying that she was stopping by to drop off my graduation present.

Around dinner time she came over with a huge crate box with a big red ribbon on it. I couldn't help but be reminded of A Christmas Story. LOL, I die. But geez, I LOVE MY COUSIN. The contents of the box were as follows:
1. A tin reusable water bottle.
2. Madonna T-shirt
3. A Dress
4. A scarf
5. A towel
6. Flip-flops
7. NEW FLATS.
College survival kit, much? :D
I need to remember to give her a call to thank her later; she spoils me too much D':

Anyway, enough of sounding like a ditsy chick. Moving right along.

I ended the night (or morning?) with the 1919 silent film entitled Broken Blossoms


"His love remains a pure and holy thing."

It's also called "the Yellow Man and the Girl." The main character guy is a Caucasian trying to play a China-man. I'm guessing it was really bright where he was, because he kept squinting his eyes. =_____=" The fuckin' nerve. LOL, but it was still a gorgeous, sweet movie with a bitter ending. I cried like a baby. Loved it.

Well, those were the "un-events" of yesterday...I should go before I spend most of my Tuesday talking about Monday. Toodles~!
