day 2
Confession number two: I physically cannot sleep with socks on my feet. Doesn’t matter how cold my feet are or how comfy the socks are. I will wake up in the middle of the night and take them off!
My Lenten project...
I’ve decided to confess one thing per day for lent. Some of it will be interesting things that really do eat away at my conscience, others will just be silly!
Day 1
When I was in fifth grade I changed an answer on an English test after it was handed back to us. It bumped my grade from a 95 to a 97. The part that really hurts me is that me teacher was the world’s nicest person.
This is why I love Josh Lyman
Leo: One in three?
C.J.: Yes.
Leo: He said one in three White House staffers are on drugs?
C.J.: Yes.
Leo: Where does he get these stats?
C.J.: Leo-
Leo: I mean where does he pull them from?
C.J.: Out of the clear blue sky, but that doesn’t matter!
Leo: [to Margaret] Is someone bringing me a tape on this?
Mandy: This isn’t happening to me.
Leo: Nothing’s happened, stay cool.
Sam: [walks in] Is it possible for Peter Lillianfield to be a bigger jackass? You think if he tried hard, there’s room for him to be a slightly bigger horse's ass than he’s being right now?
C.J.: At some point you hit your head on the ceiling, don’t you?
Sam: I think there’s unexplored potential.
Josh: [enters] ‘Sup.
Mandy: Josh.
Josh: Five White House staffers in the room. I would like to say to the 1.6 of you who are stoned right now that it’s time to share.
I miss this....
I miss spending holidays with my whole family. I have this incredibly close extended family and when I was younger we all spent every single holiday together. Now as we grow up and move away and get our own lives, no one is around. It breaks my heart. I just want us all to be together again. I miss it so much!
I don't know....
I don’t feel that flutter freak out I used to get with him. Maybe that’s a good thing, cause what we had died. I do feel happy with you. I love when I look at my phone and it’s a text from you, and it’s an inside joke (because 90% of our conversations are)! I giggle alot, truly let out this cute girly giggle. Maybe you don’t feel this back, and maybe we are just...

Serena: Are you here for another catfight?
[Blair pulls an envelope out of her purse]
Serena: What's that?
Blair: A letter. I wrote it to you when you were away at boarding school. I never sent it. [She begins to read it] Dear Serena. My world is falling apart and you're the only one who would understand. My father left my mother for a 31 year-old model. A male model [She scoffs]. I feel like screaming because I don't have anyone to talk to. You're gone, my dad's gone, Nate's acting weird... where are you? [Crying] Why don't you call? Why did you leave without saying goodbye? You're supposed to be my best friend. I miss you so much. Love, Blair.
Serena: [Tearing up, she trys to regain her composure] Why didn't you send it? I would've
Blair: You would've what? You knew, Serena. And you didn't even call.
Serena: I didn't know what to say to you, or even how to be your friend after what I did. [She also begins to cry] I'm so sorry.

My advice to the next generation:
Believe in something! Anything at all! It doesn’t have to be God or religion. It can be fate, love, or family.
Just make sure you believe with everything you’ve got. Give it you’re all. Trust me it’ll make a difference.
Find something that brings you happiness at least once a day.
It can be a friend, reading, coffee, or the sound of a bird chirping. Once again what it is doesn’t matter....

Bed
If it wasn’t for the smell of coffee, and the fact that i missed this class on friday; my bed would have won the battle this morning. Fear not friend, for I will return for a nap this afternoon!

LEO: How many Cubans, exactly, have crammed themselves into these fishing boats?
JOSH: It's important to understand, Leo, that by and large, these aren't fishing boats. You hear fishing boats, you conjure an image of -- well, of a boat, first of all. What the Cubans are on would charitably be described as rafts. Okay? They're making the hop from Havana to Miami in fruit baskets, basically. Let's just be clear on that.
LEO: We are.
JOSH: Donna's desk, if it could float, would look good to them right now.
LEO: I get it. How many are there?
JOSH: We don't know.
LEO: What time, exactly, did they leave?
JOSH: We don't know.
LEO: Do we know when they get here?
JOSH: No.
LEO: True or False: If I were to stand on high ground in Key West with a good pair of binoculars, I would be as informed as I am right now.
JOSH: That's true.
LEO: The intelligence budget's money well spent, isn't it?
JOSH: Are Ben and Sally asking for me?
LEO: No, they'd rather you didn't come, but they'll do me a favor and I need you to do me one too.
JOSH: What's at Ben and Sally's?
LEO: Karen Cahill.
JOSH: And what stupid-ass Irish thing did you say to Karen Cahill that you now need me to apologize at Ben and Sally 's like a little girl?
Leo glares at Josh rather sternly.
JOSH: Let me tell you what was surprising about that moment just then. I said that only 12 hours after you were very cool about my almost accidentally setting the building on fire.
LEO: I made a joke about her shoes.
JOSH: I'm sorry?
LEO: I made a remark about her shoes.
JOSH: You're the second most powerful man in the country...
LEO: And she relates a column for the New York Times and who knows what kind of special relationship women have with their shoes!
JOSH: What could you possibly have said...?
LEO: It doesn't matter. It was perfectly benign to anyone who doesn't take shoes that seriously. Just tell her that I love her and that I'm sorry and I'll take her shoe shopping.
JOSH: Why don't you tell her?
LEO: If someone else tells her it seems like I was thoughtful enough to mention it. If I tell her it just makes me seem feminine.
JOSH: You don't think the shoe shopping's gonna take care of that?
LEO: Let's call the insurance company and see how much water damage was done in the mural room.
