We decided to take our presents to Metro, eat dessert and drink coffee. Riotously funny to see us opening gifts and laughing like children. Stuck bows on our heads and grinned.
I gave Melynda the enormous Harry Potter print, the cover of the first book, to hang up. Also a dvd of First Knight so she may sigh longingly over Heath Ledger, and a beautiful blue bottle of lavender vanilla lotion. Her smile gleamed. In turn she gave me Harry Potter Uno, a writing set with a quill pen and stickers, and socks! I've been teasing her about socks for weeks, because she had remarked that she didn't know what to get me. I kept facetiously suggesting socks, driving her batty. She found Slytherin socks, and a pair with Golden Snitches which I'm wearing right now. I am so amused.
We played Uno for a time, and then more rounds of Shanghai Rummy with Matt and Tara. Gave a handsome boy a cigarette. I let Melynda read my story, and she pointed out my double use of a word. Such an editor she would make! Brilliant. She seemed quite amused anyhow.
I perhaps will lay down now and dream up new words for the next bit. It's freezing, quite literally, outside and the heat it turned on. Warm and wrapped in blankets, I will dream.
Yesterday I almost bought a $400 bedspread because it was furry and beautiful. I am mad, yes. But damn it was so cool.
