Fact or Fiction?

You decide...

"You are the most beautiful woman I've ever known", he whispered as he softly hugged me from behind. I didn't say anything back. No 'thank you'. No smile - I just continued to close my eyes in the dark. He said a lot more before that, but that was one statement that stood out. And that was the last statement he said before sleep took over him. It was 2am, I was trying to go to sleep. The city noises of sirens, car horns, and the occasional unidentifiable noise filled the background. But if I listened closely, I heard our breathing. "You are the most beautiful woman I've ever known", I repeated to myself, in my head. Sure, I've gotten compliments from him before, but it was different this time. I felt he surpassed what he saw on the exterior and dug deep inside and came to appreciate what was within. This made it the best compliment I've ever gotten, I think. It was like all the love, dedication, and work came out to the surface and he saw me for who I am and who I've become because of him. I, in return, felt the appreciation from his heart.

Is the paragraph above a passage from a short story I aspire to complete, a real-life experience, passage from my favorite book, or a scene I came across on tv that just moved me? You decide...

Silk.

This post is about shopping, so if you're not into it, don't bother reading on.

I don't know what sparked this: treating myself to my tax returns, knowing I'm not going on an extravagant vacation yet, or just rebelling against working so much. I've been shopping. Something that I haven't done in a long time. What's even scarier, I'm no longer bargain hunting b/c sometimes, the clothes start falling apart after a few wears. Now, it's become all about good quality. See Dad, look what you did. Now I'm looking at labels to see where the garment was made. Anyway, here are just a few of my damages (looks like this season I'm attracted to silk - even the yellow sandals are silk) -



This floral brown & yellow silk dress that I don't have the pic of. Then this sorta animal print see-through silk (see, there goes that silk again) sleeveless top from Marciano.

Nike Women's Sprint - can't find the colors I got (Grey and white)


Future damages to my wallet :(



Damnit!! This is bad!

The Pursuit of Happyness

Watch IT!!! (its also a true story)

So far, for the year 2007, the movies that I really enjoyed watching was "300" and "The Pursuit of Happyness". (yes, spelled with a 'y')

Currently reading "Naked Economics" by Charles Wheelan. Hm, who knew? I guess I needed a change of scenery from the normal mystery-thriller that I gravitate towards. Too bad its not my book.
