Making History

Today's Beautiful Thing is making history. Tonight, in my state of California, the last 2 Democratic candidates are having a debate. While I still think John Edwards was the best candidate, I can't help but feel pride that our party will nominate a woman, Hillary Clinton, or an African American, Barack Obama, (both of whom I respect very much and will gladly vote for) to run against the Republican candidate in November. Yes!

John Edwards

Today's Beautiful Thing is John Edwards. He dropped out of the Presidential Race this afternoon, and his speech was both eloquent and empowering. John and Elizabeth Edwards are a class act, and our country has lost a great deal today. (See his speech here.)

Caring

Today's Beautiful Thing is S, my supervisor. I asked if I could leave an hour early because I wasn't feeling well. She showed care and concern and told me to leave right away. It's nice to work for someone like her.

Cheese Biscuit!

Today's Beautiful Thing is a left-over cheese biscuit from last night's Red Lobster dinner. I'm normally not a fan of the biscuit, but Red Lobster's cheese biscuits are first rate!

My Beloved

Today's Beautiful Thing is my beloved husband. It's his birthday today! On this day, I can't help but look back on the last 23 years we've spent together and give thanks. I am so lucky to be married to this extraordinary man. I love you, honey. Happy Birthday!

Movie Time

Today's Beautiful Thing is the simple pleasure of renting a DVD. It's fun to watch a scary movie on a rainy night, and tons cheaper to rent one for $2.25 and watch it at home. :)

New Friends

Today's Beautiful Thing is comments from new friends. Tuesday I blogged for choice on my other blog, (as well as my Live Journal) Then, I checked out some of the other people who who blogged for choice as well. Some of them stopped back and said hello. It's always nice to make new friends. :)
