mmm friday evening

it's friday evening, and i love friday evenings. i have had quite the day and am so utterly content right now to sit curled up on my bed, ready to write a paper on the israel/palestine conflict. started off the day with playing with some kiddos at my internship, a dr's appt that leaves me hopeful that i will NOT have an ear infection for the rest of my life, a free lunch, some refreshing time with friends and a walk in the beautiful southern california sunshine. i tell my friends here all the time that i love the midwest, and there is no place like it, but i must admit, i certainly do enjoy the early march weather of southern ca. something about the prospect of an entire weekend completely open just leaves me with an indescribable sort of peace and elation. no feeling like it...so, you ask, what does the night hold? here's the plan:
listening to keane (hopes and fears album, of course) while writing about israel/palestine
buying some tennis shoes for a possible trip to a national park tomorrow....
maybe a run to donut man? (if i can convince my roommate to accompany me...)
a movie
painting my toes

ok i don't want to get too ambitious here, so i will stop while i'm ahead.
the night awaits! happy friday!
