"Muchness"

It is late again. I really am not a night owl. I have tried explaining to Jack that the only reason I stay up late when he is gone is because I am scared and its when he is home (when he wants to always stay up late) that I relax and then get tired earlier and want to turn in around 9:00 pm (no really I would go to bed that early every night). Jack is at a movie with a friend tonight, so I am waiting until he gets home. So, I'll type.

The other day Everett and I were watching 'Alice and Wonderland' (the new one with Johnny Depp, love him). My favorite part of the movie is when he tells Alice that she has lost her "Muchness" I think we all can relate to losing our "Muchness" right? Well it got me thinking to what my "Muchness" is. This is what I think: My "Muchness" is when I feel like no one can bring me down. I am happy, confident, and I Know exactly what I want in life. Now, having said that it is so easy to lose our "Muchness" the pestering feelings of doubt seem to take over and then we lose it, just like that. Oh, "Muchness" is much needed in all of our lives. Let's hold onto our "Muchness" for in Alice in Wonderland it was only when she found her "Muchness" that she could slay the 'Bandersnatch'.

My friend posts "Awkward moments" on her blog and I am not trying to copy her but really this one was embarassing! Hope you enjoy:

Last night we went on a date. Jack and I were celebrating Valentines and were so excited to go and try a new restraunt "Tuscany." Food was good, super overpriced (which we knew going into it) but again, we wanted a new experience and it was fun. Afterwards we decided to hit up Nordstrom Rack, we were walking around when we walked by a couple and the girl says
"Oh my gosh, Jack? Sarah?" Seriously she looked so familiar and I had no clue from where. We tried playing cool I said:
"Oh, my gosh! How are you?" (yeah no name okay, I really had no clue)
No name says: "I can't believe its been so long since SUU"
I'm scrambling I then remember! 7 years ago she and I were kinda friends (never close) but she was adorable. So I start talking of the good old days in Cedar (still can't remember her name) She introduced us to her husband. I am still panicked and feel like a total goon. It's not like I could use Jack to get her name she knew us both so we were both stuck not knowing. We sat and talked to them for about 15 minutes (seemed like an hour) she was shocked that I had three kids (most people are) and then we parted. But before we did she told me that we could keep in touch through facebook. I casually said "Please! find me on facebook". So today, I go to my facebook account and sure enough she did invite me as a friend and her name is......drumroll......SARAH! Awesome. I honestly hate that! But really Jack and I have been all over the place and we run into so many people who know us and I have the hardest time pinning a name to a face. not cool
