I'm so happy now I don't care if I don't make any sense. RAM got into the art history program at Sorbonne and after 2 years she can start to get her PhD, and she met someone!! Such tremendous good news!! I don't even know what to do with myself now I'm so happy. So, it really DOES happen. You pick up everything and move to a beautiful city far far away and you meet prince charming and get into dream program and you have gorgeous biracial children and people call you a professor. Alright maybe not beautiful city because of the dog poo but it's definitely romantic or none of this would have happened YAY!!!!

And someone asked for my number today. Not that I liked him, or will actually pick up if I see his number, or anything, but it just felt nice to have someone ask for your number. I can't even remember the last time that happened. I mean, it's surprising what happens to you when you go on a break, it's like the whole world can smell your singleness. It's strange and cute and interesting. Though that's not what I want, really. I just want things to go back to normal. The regular phone calls, the good nights, the bickering over tiles and cabinets, stuff that you won't miss until you don't have them anymore. But I guess that's life, eh? Life is not refundable, so I've lately been told.

But it's still a good day, hearing RAM's perfect story and my being asked for my number. Like I told R in a sms marathon, seek pleasure in the small things in life. They make you smile at your computer screen like an idiot, but what a wonderful feeling.
