hearing voices from salt lake city

{phone rings}
"hello?"
"hey, it's chris, hold on, i have someone who wants to talk to you..."
{hear the phone changing hands}
"hey sarah..."

christina!!!

i got to talk to christina on the phone last night, and it completely made my week. she sounds good, cheerful, tired, but ready to start getting better. she'd been able to move the toes on her right foot a half hour before i talked to her, and this morning chris told me she was able to move her right thumb and index finger slightly. the news just keeps getting better and better, and it makes me so happy. christina said i should come see her in kentucky, so it's set--i won't go to salt lake city; instead, i'll wait until she's moved to louisville and see her during her first few days in the rehab clinic.

it's been a stressful week, to say the least, and i'm glad it's friday. i don't have any plans for the weekend, but nick wants me to come to bar houston tonight, and he, curt, paul, and debbie are having a luau at their house tomorrow night. i'll go of course. other than that, i have a lot of things i want to take care of around the apartment. cleaning my room, working on my webpage (i have the idea for the new one, just no time to actually construct the thing), trying to get going again with my knitting while jen is still in town.

anyway.  oh! check out becca's newborn tales from the swiss nunnery page.

ooh. i was just glancing at the co-op webpage and found this picture of curt and me at the beach party. enjoying the jacuzzi. good, clean fun at this point anyway.
