wispfoxToday's astronomy picture of the day is lovely! Go look!
I'm very tired. And I need to get up for the commuter rail leaving at 7:30 Thursday morning. I forgot that Thursday was going to be effectively a weekend as far as how often the trains will be running. I may change my mind on taking someone up on an offer to help me skip the need for using the commuter rail to get to Logan. That's *early*! Mmm. Still contemplating, though, because taking the train means I can nap on the hour-long trip by train, and making use of the aforementioned offer will mean I'd need to be *driving* for 45 minutes, albeit a little bit later in the morning. Hmm...
I was thoroughly floored, while catching up on the weekend's LJ posts, to find myself as someone that a friend of mine was seeking to emulate at some point in time. *blinks* Thoroughly flattered, mind you. But... whoa. Just not something I associate with myself.
Apparently I have good energy. I'm not quite sure what that means, but one of the people I was sitting next to at the work group mentioned that to me. Interesting!
I get to spend time after work tonight with a wonderful and cute girl. *squee*
Speaking of squee, I lent _Squee_ to someone yesterday. Yay for lending really strange reading material to nifty people!
LOTR last night was amazing. Ran really late (kinda as expected), but wow. And I have a really nifty new purple soft dress now! Hmm. I think I'll bring that to Orlando and wear it for New Year's Eve. Yeah. I like that idea. And my cloak! That dress so needs the cloak.
Also, it's really amazing how desirable a certain girl I know can look while holding a T token in her mouth. Whew!
Running away to Orlando Thursday. Go, me!

Date: 2003-12-22 11:56 am (UTC)Huh. It's really odd to see someone else's opinion of myself apparently reflecting who I would *like* to be, even though I don't think I'm there yet. *I* don't feel confident in who I am... but, because of what you quoted in your reply to my comment to your original post (http://www.livejournal.com/users/starandrea/6123.html), you apparently know that. And have that opinion anyway.
I...
Thank you. It's really helpful to see myself through other people's eyes. Especially ones who've known me a while.
You know what's the most interesting about this conversation? My impressions of *you* are that you're someone who does what she wants, simply because she wants to - something I associate with confidence in one's self. And that's something I strive for, myself - I tend to be too cautious.
So, basically, we each apparently think of the other as someone who is very confident, but don't think that about ourselves. *amused* Mutual admiration, indeed! :)
