"Why's it surreal when my hands feel they can't roll the dice?
Why's it so great just to wake every day, alive and by your side." - My Morning Jacket

What a weird couple of days it has been. After taking the day off work on Wednesday, I came back to what has seemed like an alternate reality at work. There's been some strange happenings, people have acted weird, and then today all the forces of office evil collided to create the perfect storm. I think all the stress has gotten to me. I've been having a weird floating feeling off and on all day. It's days like these that really make you appreciate the relaxing times.

Wednesday was a glorious day. The boyfriend and I took the day off and drove to Raleigh for some Anthro shopping, art appreciation, and a Gillian Welch concert. I added many new items to my Anthro wishlist and did some reviews for you guys. Then, we went to the museum of art and walked around for awhile. I was so excited that "The Thinker" by Rodin was there. I thought it was "the one" sculpted by the man himself. Silly me. Upon closer inspection of the sign, I read that it was cast in 1980. I felt like an idiot for rubbing all over the poor statue man saying to myself, "I'm touching the same statue Rodin touched so many years ago." I do have one question about The Thinker. What is up with his hair? He was definitely having a bad hair day.

We topped the day off with an awesome concert by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. As I sat beside the love of my life listening to the beautiful music, I felt so incredibly happy. It's the little things that matter so much, and my man is really good at the little things. He always makes my bad days better. After hearing about my day at work, he brought me a chocolate milkshake. It's so nice to have someone in my life who can take all the stress away with just a simple act. I am living in an alternate reality because this is the life of my dreams.
