my person just did her first "speaker presentation" in a professional capacity. i'm so proud of her. she felt like she left a lot of things out (because she did), but people kept coming up to her congratulating her and telling her they'd learned a lot. dumping a liter of vodka in the water pitcher probably helped, but it was pretty cool nonetheless.
if someone had told mp a year ago that it was the start of the best year of her life, she would have called them a dirty name and (after i washed her mouth out with soap) gone back to moping. i'm still not postive how we got here, though i have an idea... all i know is that somehow we have always gotten what we need.
