Sometimes You Just Want a Bunny

I was just gandering at my friend's blog and saw the pictures of her two rabbits.....do you ever just want a rabbit? I had one when I was a kid. I kind of felt the same way today when I was at Meijer's and saw the hamsters. Something about small, furry things make you want to have them, even when you know they will become the plaything of two inquisitive cats who might not know their own strength (or claws). Maybe it's because today I just feel like burying my face into something soft. I'm really tired today....sometimes I think my cold isn't all the way gone, and I feel like I'm not accomplishing everything I should be.

Tomorrow I leave for North Carolina to visit with Loretta, and we're picking up Ruthie on the way. Yay! Road trip! And I get to drive Pam's Grand Prix..... ;)

To recap, Beachpoint was AWESOME and well worth going. I am so geeked out now about what I do for a living (and being reminded that I can make a living at it if I try was really helpful). I'm ready to be a director now. I wasn't before--thought I was, but really I wasn't. I needed to go through a valley or two first (or technically wouldn't climbing the mountain be harder? Oh well, use your own metaphor). And I needed to hear Karla say it too, to hear her story of ups and downs--extreme ones--someone successful whom I already deeply respect and admire for all she's done. And now look, she's at the top of her game. So cool.

Wow, do I need a nap. But wow, do I need to pack, make dinner, make phone calls, and study. Can you say overwhelmed?
