A really pleasant surprise

I feel like I'm having all these good days lately, which is pretty freakin' awesome if I do say so myself.

Today I drove home to Marin and ran a few errands when I go here, which included a stop at the Goodwill. And I got two sweet dresses (!) and a denim jacket (they're all the rage, don't ya know) for like $17. That's right, seventeen dollars. And one of the dresses I totally tried on at a regular store and it was like fifty bucks or something ridiculous like that.

Then later today, I was just going out to the garage to take my laundry out of the dryer, when there it was. A package. For me! And it was pink! Turns out it was my first graduation gift from my grandparents all the way in Texas! See:


There was also this REALLY pretty journal, which if you now me and my bird and flower obsession (see tattoos for confirmation), is pretty much perfect. And I was just thinking the other day I needed a new journal, since I've been taking notes while I read and need a place to write down ideas for zee blog. So I kind of love it. 

There was also a nicely sized check included and it is going directly into my Paris fund, which is looking weak as of right now. I mean, I've got a ticket, now I just need the spending money and this was a little step in that direction. So I kinda hope I get some more graduation gifts just like this one. You know, for Paris. PARIS!

So yeah, today had some really pleasant surprises and I just wanted to share...or brag a little. Same thing, right?
