I like this question. Last August for mine and Andrew's two year, we wrote each other stories because we were both broke but still wanted to give each other something. Mine was a collection of very short stories based on different time eras of a typewriters life, and focused on the owners of it from when it was brand new to old, I liked the idea of everyone being connected by that typewriter, and I really love delving into the lives of characters, he seemed to like it and I may expand on that story idea sometime this summer. The story he wrote me was surreal, based on a pig's head, it was freaky but I really liked it. These were nice gifts, a nice change of pace from purchasing each other something.
Just experienced two lovely days off from work, its a relief but tomorrow will be an 8am-5pm shift, which is nice and shorter than 9am-7pm, but still long. Sunday is the short shift, 1-5pm and then a complete mystery as to what next week will hold in store for me. It is nice though, being outside all day at work and working with my hands, feeling the fresh air and looking at some very pretty flowers. I have no clue what I'll do with myself once June rolls around, aside from looking for new employment.
Need to purchase my Mom a gift, hmm.....
Oh, also hungout with Aimee briefly on Wednesday night and hope to go the bar with her sometime next week, get our drink on and enjoy time in each others company.
Grandma's birthday was yesterday and the family is celebrating it this weekend, going to Ohio, and I have to decline because I can't take the time off of work which makes me sad, but hopefully I get to see her soon, maybe my Mom and I will take her out to breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
