i love, love, love jason mraz's voice.

today micah, rowan and i went to see wall-e at the dollar movie with my friend alison and her kiddos. tuesday is 50 cent day, so i paid a whole dollar (rowan was free) for our tickets. micah and her friends sat through most of the movie, then got a little restless at the end. it was cool, though, because we had the theater to ourselves, except for one elderly lady, and she smiled at me several times while i was chasing rowan up and down the aisles, so i don't think she was bothered. it was a really fun outing, except that i got motion sick in the car on the way to the theater (even though i was driving) and then got even more motion sick in the movie, and ended up feeling horribly nauseated and migraine-y. i took a hot bath when we got home, and that plus a couple of hours of resting made me feel better. by the time my friend katherine came over for a visit in the evening, i was fine.

wall-e is the cutest movie ever and i want to own it so i can watch it over and over. : )

josh and i have new pet names for each other. he is "negative nathaniel" and i am "positive penelope". it all started because he was warning me he doesn't think i'll have a good time going indoor rock climbing tomorrow night, because he knows my normal level of physical activity, and believes it will be more work than play. this may be true, but i don't get to go out and do stuff like this very often since i became a mama, and whether it is a breeze for me physically or not, i know i will get a kick out of doing something new and challenging. we just have different ways of looking at it: he went indoor rock climbing a while back and found it discouraging, while i'm pretty sure i'll just have fun hanging (pun intended) with my friends.

despite having his doubts that i'll enjoy indoor rock climbing, as soon as he found out i wanted to go, he was on the phone with one of his former supervisors trying to line up some painting work so he could earn money for me to go. he is amazing. : ) he's planning on taking micah and rowan to a drum circle, along with a good friend of ours whom we haven't seen in ages, tomorrow night while i'm out enjoying a good upper body workout. i hope they have a good time! micah hasn't been separating from me well, but this evening i took rowan to the grocery store and left her home with josh, and she was okay. she cried when i went out the door, but was fine as soon as i was out of sight. she also fell asleep without nursing again, tonight... she is growing up!
