(none)

Today at work I spent seven and a half hours out on buggies. And it was hot out! I could have gone in and traded out with someone else and I didn't, so I can't blame anyone for this. But I can brag about the funny places I got sunburnt. I got color on my nose and cheeks and chest, despite the sunscreen. And I also burnt the back of my legs, and my part line. Didn't expect those! I drank 3 liters of water, but I still ended up with a headache that will soon send me to bed.

I've been thinking lately of this scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding:

Toula: I'm serious! No one in my family has ever gone out with a non-Greek before. No one. And you're, you're, wonderful... but I just don't see how this is going to work out. So...
Ian: Work out? What's to work out? We're not a different species. Yes, we come from different backgrounds. And hey, here's some news about my life to this point: it's boring. Then I met you and you're interesting and you're beautiful and fun. You got a weird family; who doesn't. I just want to spend some time with you. I just want to spend a little time, with you.
Toula: Did you say I'm beautiful?

I really like that line, and I really think that's what friendships/relationships should be: "I just want to spend some time with you." Of course in the movie they start kissing right away, and soon enough they're getting married. But I like it that they let that develop - they didn't go into it saying "I just want to marry you." There's no pressure.

In my email conversation with my friend regarding Nick, I asked him for his opinion of my actions at his party. He replied: I don't think you need to be ashamed of anything at the party - personally, I think you just made everyone envious ; ) and that's their problem, not yours.
