Picking flowers for a friend who came to play

• I am recently in love with Cry Baby Cry by... you guessed it... the Beatles. It's so.. great. I listened to it a while ago and every once in a while when it came on shuffle on my lappy and then i had it stuck in my head during the 2nd 3 hour psychology study session (seriously... they help. but my mind becomes pretty mushy by the end of it) and i came home, ate some cheesecake and vacuumed (more about that in a minute) and then pulled it up on my lappy and listened to it 4 or 5 or 10 times. i lose count. (p.s. if'n you didn't realize by now, the title is a line from the song. not a prominent line but i still liked it enough to title-ize it)

• So, i'm assuming your asking "why were you vacuuming so late at night?" the answer is this: We got new WINDOWS! and they had to bust mine out like it was a hot beat. ignore that.. hah. anyway, now i can escape in case of fire! AND I can open my window to let in the breeze! AND i can't hear everything happening outside my window! hooorah! it's so great!. now we just need our neighbor to either move or keep his stupid carport light off so i can enjoy this new thing. p.s. it's snowing. and it's april. and i hate the snow. BUT as soon as it melts and there is no more snow until next winter, i'll be fine.

• Another cool thing! i have been diligently job searching. and i had an interview at firehouse. i felt confident and cool and, even though i was put on the spot, i think the interview went really well. he thought it was cool because he'd never met an Ellen before and I could play the ukulele. doubleawesome. sheahhh. okay.

• that's basically all. so long, farewell, some german for goodbye! (i think it's german...) -Ellen
